2021 Subaru Forester: The Best All-in-one Vehicle

This iconic compact SUV is now in its fifth generation, offering the most space and amenities in its history. Six trim levels offer different price and feature mixes that offer something for everyone. These models include Forester, Convenience, Touring, Sport, Limited and Premier. Heated steering wheel is now standard on Touring models and above, and LED steering responsive headlights and high beam assist is now standard across the board.

The 2021 Subaru Forester has a drivetrain that delivers

Every Forester includes a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. The engine pairs with a continuously variable transmission for enhanced performance and efficiency.

The efficient nature of the drivetrain results in a highway fuel economy rating of 7.2 L/100 km. Each Forester also features Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, the popular AWD system that helps you create a path in a variety of road conditions. 

Much of Canada is enjoyed off-pavement. The 2021 Forester makes this easier with the standard X-MODE with Hill Descent Control (HDC). HDC maintains a constant speed on steep declines so you don't have to risk locking the brakes. X-MODE also uses lower gear ratios when traveling on rugged inclines to produce more power and transfer it to the wheels with the most grip. The Sport model features Dual-Function X-MODE. 

The 2021 Subaru Forester has its largest interior ever—and fits more

The Forester's versatility extends your lifestyle with up to 2,155 litres of cargo volume behind the front seats. Whether you venture to the great outdoors, on a weekend of shopping, to sports practice or hundreds of other places, the Forester is a great platform. 

The Forester also scores high on individual passenger volume. It offers up to 1,046 mm of headroom, 1,100 mm of legroom, and 1,478 mm of shoulder room in the front row. Rear seat passengers enjoy up to 1,006 mm of headroom, 1,001 mm of legroom, and 1,453 mm or shoulder room. 

Each model also features Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. It includes popular assistants such as Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering Assist, Pre-Collision Throttle Management and Tracking, Lane Departure safety, Lead Vehicle Start Alert and more. 

Every owner also receives standard heated front seats, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a 6.5-inch multimedia system, Bluetooth hands-free phone and connectivity, and more.
