I think this design is very roomy and what most cars should be like with the exception of its engine performance and resulting fuel economy

September 19, 2022This is our first Subaru, we have previously driven - Toyota Rav4, Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Patriot, and Hyundai Santa Fe. We wanted to find a Subaru Forester as we grow our family because of the longevity of the vehicle and the amazing safety ratings. The 2019 Forester is going to be perfect for us. It gets great gas mileage, the visibility from the drivers seat is unmatched, its spacious, and has plenty of room in the trunk for groceries, luggage, a dog, whatever you need. We like the height of the vehicle and it runs very smoothly. This car is a great value, especially if it lasts the way most Subarus seem to last! We also looked at getting an Outback, but after a bit of research, decided that the Forester was more fitting for our family and lifestyle.
November 12, 2020I love the forester... perfect SUV and drives like a car.. I will always only own a Subaru.. it is the only car with Symetrical AWD.. Nothing on the market like it..
November 27, 2020excellent car, very responsive, lots of features, Apple car play is excellent, Android not able to connect easily. wish the passenger seat had the same power seating options as the drivers seat, which is fantastic. best feature - panoramic sunroof.
October 29, 2020The car is in excellent condition, and has safety features for a family. I definitely would recommend Subaru Forester Premium AWD to my family and friends, from San Jose, Ca.
June 12, 2020Very sporty handling, good turning radius and large cabin with lots of visibility.
August 27, 2024It has all the features I was looking for. It runs great.
September 26, 2023Wish Standard Transmission was available. Also a regular automatic transmission instead of CVT
