What Subaru Forester do most buyers choose?

The Subaru Forester years with the most listings are 2025, 2024, and 2026.

Most Forester model years are showing price declines year over year, and several of those drops are double-digit moves. That pattern is helpful if you are shopping used, because it suggests there are opportunities to find better value in recent model years.

The 2014, 2016, and 2021 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
