Why it stands out
The 2023 Subaru Forester distinguishes itself in the crowded compact SUV market by prioritizing practicality and functionality over style. Its robust design is complemented by a standard all-wheel drive (AWD) system, which enhances its appeal to adventure-seekers who require reliable performance in varying terrains. Notably, the Forester boasts ample cargo space, with 762 litres available behind the rear seats, accommodating everything from sports equipment to grocery hauls. While the engine performance, powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder producing 182 horsepower, may feel underwhelming for some, the Forester's handling and driving dynamics remain exceptional, providing a comfortable and communicative experience on the road.
Subaru has also equipped the 2023 model with the latest EyeSight safety features, enhancing its reputation for reliability and safety. Despite the notable absence of a turbocharged option or a hybrid variant, the Forester excels in offering a practical and safe driving experience, making it a sensible choice for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Solid drive and comfortable ride. Reasonable value. More acceleration power is always welcome to have… but as it is, it’s already sufficient power for my needs. I’ve test driven RAV4 hybrid, CRV, CX5 and Sportage. Except for the overpriced RAV4 hybrid, the rest of the cars i tested didn’t fare well with me.

This is my first Subaru purchase. I decided on it after driving my husbands 2022 Forester. I absolutely love this car. It is a smooth ride and the safety features are great! Seats are comfortable and theres plenty of room! Its also got great pickup, which is something that was lacking from other similar cars I tested. Highly recommend this vehicle!

Great value for your money (provided you dont get scammed at the dealership) CVT is hard to swallow but that is only downside. Although power at 182hp on paper is adequate... drives and feels more powerful. Overall for the awd and safety... this is a great car!
