Subaru launched its brand new 2019 Forester. the 2.5L flat 4 cylinder drives all-wheel-drive through their CVT transmission, with Xmode off roading, and Si drive for on road. Forester’s ride is luxurious, even on the most atrocious dirt roads.
We toured through pretty Victorian towns, overnighting at near Mt Sturgeon in historic Dunkeld. The Subaru showed first class credentials as it traversed cross country tracks, smooth paved highways, and badly pot-holed rural roads. Forester is the perfect weekender with Alan from Anyauto.com.au
The most successful vehicle in the Subaru range is the Forester, selling over 12,000 in 2017 and 250,000 since initial launch in 1997.
So you can believe Subaru take any changes to the model seriously. I have just come back from the launch of the 5th generation Forester, based on their new Subaru Global Platform (SGP).
We have reviewed the Forester on many occasions and it has always been a favourite with our drivers.
The new platform transforms the Forester in almost all aspects, with improved interior space, ride, handling, safety and quietness.
There are four models in the line-up, the Forester 2.5i, Forester 2.5i-L, Forester 2.5i-Premium and Forester 2.5i-S. For pricing head to our pricing and specifications article.
