2024 Subaru Forester: Great Quality and Reliability

 


Subaru has long been known for making high-quality, reliable vehicles and the 2024 Subaru Forester is no exception. 

This five-seat compact SUV has standard all-wheel drive and is powered by a 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine that makes 182 horsepower and is linked to a continuously variable automatic transmission. Fuel economy is rated at an EPA-estimated 29 mpg in a mix of city and highway driving; this drops to 26 mpg if you pick the off-road-themed Wilderness trim, which has a raised suspension and all-terrain tires. 

Standard features include:

  • 6.5-inch touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • Split, folding second row
  • Satellite radio
  • Four-speaker stereo
  • 17-inch steel wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Automatic high-beam headlights
  • Lane departure steering assist
  • Rear-seat reminder
  • Adaptive cruise control with lane centering

Available features include:

  • 8-inch touchscreen
  • Heated front seats
  • Leather seating
  • Keyless entry
  • Push-button start
  • Raised suspension (Wilderness)
  • Panoramic moonroof
  • Rear air vents
  • Dual-zone climate control
  • Power liftgate
  • Rear cross-traffic alert
  • Blind spot warning

With a reasonable price tag ($28,000 - $38,000), a fuel-efficient engine and a roomy interior that looks nice and is made of quality materials, the Forester is a formidable competitor. It has adequate horsepower and the standard AWD is a selling point for some, especially in colder climates.
