Make fun a habit
Subaru Forester is engineered to make every moment more powerful. With a 2.5L direct injection horizontally-opposed Boxer engine you can do more for longer. Meanwhile, with Subaru Forester Hybrid family adventures tread more lightly on the planet, with a new-generation e-Boxer engine combining Subaru’s 2.0L direct-injection horizontally-opposed Boxer petrol engine with a self-charging battery powered electric motor.

Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
Gravel. Bitumen. Dirt. Seize the moment and take a spontaneous trip knowing that Subaru’s award winning Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system will keep you grounded. The on-board computer constantly optimises traction and grip on every wheel, giving you a rock-solid grip on the road.


Lineartronic® CVT
Forester’s Lineartronic® CVT responds perfectly to every moment of your journey. Tweaked to react to every touch. Highway cruising or hill climbing, Forester’s engine operates in its optimal power range no matter where you drive.
Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-Drive)
Every moment and every drive is different, so Forester was designed to embrace each situation. Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-Drive) technology lets you choose between distinctly different modes to fit your mood. Like Intelligent (I) mode, with its smooth, well-balanced response and lighter on fuel consumption. Or the performance-enhancing Sport (S) mode.
Standard on Subaru Forester 2.5i Sport AWD, 2.5i Premium AWD, 2.5i-S AWD and Hybrid S AWD variants only.
