Expect our full review with driving impressions to post on 5/6 at 9am EST so be sure to set your reminders to come back on that day! Which Forester trim level would you choose for yourself?

I'm going to be honest. I was planning on shopping for a new car this winter. The forester was on the list. Either the base with some features to avoid that terrible infotainment or a wilderness. I saw all of these and threw up in my mouth a little. This is for sure off the list.

Subaru needs to step their game up with more power and better styling. They need to replace the 2.5L NA engine with a 2.0L turbo across the lineup and change the exterior and interior design. This car, even with the "redesign", is old - it has the same engine and styling as two generations ago, which debuted in 2014. The CRV and RAV4 are far ahead of the Forester.

@darrenmorreale1922 Ай бұрын

Have a 22 Forester Wilderness and have been screaming about the engine forever. Extremely adequate but come on another twenty five horsepower and now we’re moving. Another fifty now you feel excited. It’s a great vehicle but Subaru cuts corners and calls it safety and reliability. Put the Rav 4 hybrid engine since Toyota owns part of Subaru. Engine is efficient and more horsepower.

On paper, the engine and transmission sound like a carry over, but Subaru assured us the engine got some extensive changes to the internals and they have reprogrammed the torque curve so it makes more low end power and its achieved at a much lower RPM. The CVT is also an updated version of the transmission from the Wilderness trim.

I had three Foresters but once the Turbo went away and only the 2.5 engine remained, I regretfully gave up on it. I've driven both 2.5 and 2.4 Turbo Outbacks and the 2.4 simply walks away with things, getting nearly the same gas mileage (provided you have a light foot) but will handle any expressway or mountain situation without complaint. Hopefully the Forester Hybrid, a year or so away, will offer the missing piece torards returning to Forester. Bigger wheels on sport and touring are not encouraging.

It’s okay. Subaru isn’t ever been known for their beautiful automotive design. I’ve owned many Acuras and a Volvo, but my wife recently really wanted an Outback. It’s been a great car so far. I’ve been thinking about what my next car will be, and I’ve liked the Forester. I love that they added the cool seats. The only issue I have with the Forester is not having the optional turbo anymore. I would hope the hybrid trim coming out will add some power but I won’t hold my breath. I’d cross shop this against the Outback, Legacy (which is going away), Acura RDX and Integra. The forester seems like it’s a sweet spot of offering lots of luxury items, not requiring premium but that engine is nothing to strive for to drive.
