Subaru Forester


The Subaru Forester was introduced to the US in 1998 as a cross-over car / SUV. Providing the utility of an SUV with the performance and ease of a car, the Forester has found very loyal consumers who swear by Subaru’s multifaceted vehicle. Highly capable in any weather situation with its all wheel drive and higher ride height, the Forester doesn’t provide outrageous off-road capabilities, but the majority of consumers will never see such terrain anyways. The Forester provides what the average driver will realistically encounter in their daily lives with the ability to handle some surprise situations with ease. While not the most beautiful vehicle, the Forester is absolutely one of the most well rounded vehicles out there.
