Subaru of America, Inc. is thrilled to announce the launch of the all-new 2025 Subaru Forester SUV, which is set to arrive at Subaru retailers in late spring 2024. This completely redesigned SUV is a testament to Subaru's commitment to innovation and excellence, with a starting price of $29,695.
The sixth-generation Forester features a sleeker exterior design, a quieter and more refined interior, improved ride and handling, and enhanced safety features. It's available in five trim levels: Base, Premium, Sport, Limited, and Touring, all equipped with Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and the latest generation of the award-winning Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist Technology.
Exterior and Interior Design
The 2025 Forester boasts a contemporary exterior design with a bold grille, compact LED headlights, and flared wheel arches that emphasize its off-road capabilities. The new chassis, based on the Subaru Global Platform, provides 10% stiffer torsional rigidity compared to the previous model.
Inside, the Forester offers a quiet and comfortable environment with contoured dash elements, textured trim accents, and a dark headliner designed to hide scuffs and scratches. The use of sound-absorbing materials and robust welding techniques reduces noise, making for a more serene driving experience.
Technology and Safety
Standard on every 2025 Forester is the latest version of EyeSight, which operates more smoothly and in a broader range of conditions. It can identify cyclists and pedestrians at intersections sooner, alerting the driver and applying braking to avoid collisions. Additional safety features include Reverse Automatic Braking, Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
For the first time, the Forester features Emergency Stop Assist, which can stop the SUV if it detects an unresponsive driver when Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is active. The SUV also comes with a Rear Seat Reminder to alert drivers to check for occupants or pets in the rear seat.
Performance and Comfort
All 2025 Forester models are powered by a revised 2.5-liter Subaru BOXER engine that produces 180 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, paired with a Lineartronic Continuously Variable Transmission. The standard 8.7 inches of ground clearance provides impressive off-road capability.
The Forester Premium adds comfort and convenience features such as a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat, panoramic power moonroof, and an all-weather package including heated front seats. The Sport trim offers unique styling elements, upgraded suspension for improved handling, and dual-function X-MODE for enhanced off-road performance.
The Limited and Touring trims add luxury features like leather-trimmed upholstery, a power-adjustable passenger seat, and advanced driver assistance features. The Touring trim tops the lineup with a 360-Degree Surround View Monitor, heated and ventilated front seats, and a DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System.
Forester Wilderness
The rugged 2024 Forester Wilderness continues in production alongside the all-new 2025 Forester. It features a unique front fascia, water-resistant StarTex seating surfaces, and an optional package with an 8.0-inch SUBARU STARLINK Multimedia Navigation system and Harman Kardon premium audio system.
Conclusion
The 2025 Subaru Forester is a well-equipped SUV that offers a perfect blend of style, comfort, and advanced technology. With its impressive standard features and range of trim levels, the Forester is ready to cater to a variety of needs and preferences. Whether you're navigating city streets or exploring off-road trails, the Forester promises a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable driving experience.
