Named by Motor Trend as top Sport/Utiliy vehicle of 2009, the
Subaru Forester is a crossover that combines the best qualities of a sport-vehicle with the driving attributes of a car. The
Subaru Forester is smoother and sleeker than ever before and is the only SUV in its class to offer a standard all-wheel drive, making it excellent for handling extreme climates like rain or snow. The spacious cargo area offers a total of 68 cubic feet, as well as underfloor storage and versatile rear cargo area with a nifty liftgate.
The
Subaru Forester is available in five trim levels: 2.5 X, 2.5 X Premium, 2.5 X Limited, 2.5 XT Premium and 2.5 XT Limited. All trims comes with a 2.5 liter horizontally-opposed 4-Clyinder engine, producing 170 to 224 horsepower, depending on the model. The 2.5 X and 2.5 X Premium come equipped with five-speed manual transmission, while other trims have a 4-speed automatic with manual shift mode. Features include 17-inch-alloy wheels, automatic climate control, heated front seats, leather upholstery, panoramic sunroof, and a six CD changer. For XT trims, an optional touch-screen GPS navigation system with Bluetooth connectivity is available. Mileage is at 20/27 mpg in the city/highway, respectively. Safety features include electronic stability, traction control systems, four-wheel anti-lock disk brakes with brake assist, front and curtain side airbags, and active front head restraints.
