The SUV that seeks what you’re looking for!
The all-new 2025 Subaru Forester-the sixth generation of this uncommonly popular compact SUV-is more versatile, safer, stylish and value-packed than ever. Completely redesigned from the ground up, the all-new Forester features a muscular exterior design, a more refined passenger cabin, and a quieter and more comfortable ride. Standard features include the latest version of the award-winning Subaru EyeSight® system, with a new wide-angle mono camera added for better pedestrian and cyclist pre-collision protection. Available features include the new 11.6-inch infotainment screen, power liftgate with hands-free kick sensor**, wireless charging pad, and wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration. For a sporty stylish experience, there’s the new Forester Sport with unique design features and sport tuned suspension for better driver control. But no matter which Forester you choose, you’re guaranteed a road-trip worthy, family-friendly and ultra-safe SUV.

Weird how Subaru dealers in my area already have more 2025 Foresters in stock than Toyota dealers have 2024 RAV4's. Is Toyota really intentionally limiting the RAV4 supply?

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist Ай бұрын

I couldn't tell you, but they probably are. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Just another reason to buy a Subaru over a Toyota.

I have the Sport coming for me to my dealer any day now. One thing I do not like already is the single Exhaust tip and even having it set back in behind the opening. And looking at the opening, it’s bigger than the small exhaust tip. I wish they had the tip concealed like the Outback and Crosstrek or at least give it dual tips BUT the forester is not about dual tips or performance, it is about practicality and comfort. First thing is to get that tip extended to match the rear of the bumper.

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist Ай бұрын

Yeah, I do wish that they had opted to do two exhaust tips as well as a longer tip - but that is easily solvable! Congrats in advance on your incoming Sport!

Loved it; I still have a 19 Forester Sport that I love, but the new model looks very attractive :) Made in Japan still?

Yes, still made in Japan!

Great review Tyson! I really like the new look of the 2025 Forester! I just wish Subaru would offer a turbo for it. Glad it is offered in the Outback! I wonder if the 2026 Outback will follow the same design language. That would be awesome!

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist Ай бұрын

It would be nice if they offered the 2.4L, at least in the Wilderness. We'll see about the design language!

@@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist yes! The Sport trim should get it as well. They did that with the Legacy Sport which is being discontinued after the 2025 model year ☹️

@AJSparacio413 yes, unfortunately they didn't sell enough Legacys to keep producing them. They're amazing cars, but Subaru doesn't support them enough with advertising, imo.

Does it actually heat the entire wheel now like the Outback, or is it like the Crosstrek and last gen Forester where it doesn't heat the top?

The top does not heat.

Hi Tyson ,has the tcv been replaced with a standard thermostat on the new 2025 Forester.regards

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist 29 күн бұрын

I checked this morning and it looks like it's a traditional thermostat in the 2025's. At least, there is no TCV in the same area that it was on the previous gen Foresters.

@Cecco619 Ай бұрын

Do you know why winter tires cannot be fitted to 19-inch wheels?

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist Ай бұрын

They're concerned that the larger/wider tread blocks on the winters would contact the fender liners under certain conditions. The 19's were a last minute addition because SOA told Subaru Japan that they NEEDED to have 19's in the lineup, or they'd suffer a lack of sales... 🙄

@akzil2420 29 күн бұрын

How it drives comparing to main competitors like rav4 or crv? I mean road noise, suspension

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist 29 күн бұрын

It drives more smoothly than both of them and is much quieter as well. Comfort is significantly better in the Forester and the amount of room for passengers is vastly superior. I'm obviously a bit biased, but Subaru definitely made the Forester a more refined vehicle in this iteration.

At 04:42 what is that Grey square piece of plastic for? It came with the vehicle so it must have a purpose.

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist 28 күн бұрын

It's a battery tray - eventually they'll swap to shorter batteries and those trays are going to end up under the new battery to ensure that the cables can reach the posts.

first, the color is not called bedrock pearl, its river rock pearl and also there is no "premier" trim. the actual trim name is touring.

@TysonTheSubaruSpecialist 29 күн бұрын

First, you are correct. I admit that ai called it by the wrong name, I have been mixing up River Rock and Bed Rock in my head for some reason - I gotta work on that. There is 1000% a Premier trim here in Canada. The Touring trim here is the middle of the road trim level. You're more than welcome to confirm on Subaru.ca

@coneyislandftw besides exterior colour, and interior colour and a few accessories, I don't think so, but in the US that mirror is only available on the top level Touring so I was hoping it meant it would be on the Premier here...but now I need to go check my spec sheets or find some more Canadian reviews to put my mind at rest.
