5 Features of the 2024 Subaru Forester

1. Impressive Fuel Economy

The Forester gets up to 30 miles per gallon: above average for a compact SUV. It’s equipped with a 181-horsepower engine and a continuously variable automatic transmission. In addition, every 2024 Forester model comes with standard all-wheel drive. With the right equipment, this crossover can tow up to 1,500 pounds. 

2. Strong Off-Roading Capabilities

Go for the Forester Wilderness trim to take on tough trails. This model gives you an elevated ground clearance of 9.2 inches and all-terrain tires, along with underbody skid plates and durable water-resistant upholstery. You’ll also have an X-Drive mode that adjusts suspension and other settings for rugged conditions. A forward-facing camera lets you record your best rides.

3. Exceptional Safety Ratings and Features

The 2024 Forester earned top crash test scores, including five stars overall from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Every trim incorporates the Subaru EyeSight suite of active driver assistance tech. It includes adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, forward collision warning, adaptive headlights, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking.

Higher models add safety upgrades such as adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, a head-up display, reverse automatic emergency braking, and rear cross-traffic alert. Driver attention monitoring is another available option.

4. Appealing Interior Space

The Forester ranks as one of the roomiest small crossovers you can buy. Rear-seat passengers will appreciate more than 43 inches of legroom. Take advantage of almost 29 cubic feet of cargo space, which expands to more than 74 cubic feet when you fold down the second row. The available power liftgate offers convenient access to the cargo area. Drivers will appreciate the airy design of the cabin, which maximizes visibility.

The base model features amenities like automatic climate control and remote keyless entry. Cabin enhancements include an available moonroof, heated and power-adjustable front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, proximity keyless entry, push-button start, and leather upholstery.

5. Desirable Tech Equipment

Depending on the trim, the Forester features a 6.5-inch or 8-inch infotainment touchscreen. You’ll have plenty of connectivity including dual USB ports and standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The base model also comes with a four-speaker stereo. Move up to higher models for additions like a Wi-Fi hotspot and a six-speaker or nine-speaker stereo. Built-in navigation is also available.
