For the longest time, the Subaru Forester has been one of the cars that defined the realistically attainable modern-day SUV. In addition to practicality, the Forester was quirky and unique with its horizontally opposed boxer-style engine, tough styling and more than capable offroad ability with Subaru's signature All-Wheel-Drive.

Compared to earlier Foresters, the newer generation has grown up but still maintains the well-acclaimed driveline with luxury refinements and advanced vehicle safety systems with Subaru's EyeSight system. You can have the Forester in either a 2.0-litre or 2.5-litre petrol engine but across the range, the engine is paired to a CVT automatic gearbox.
