2023 Forester Engineering
At the heart of every Subaru is mechanical design that is built to overcome. It all starts with the 2.5L Subaru BOXER® engine, which unleashes 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. This power will help you handle whatever stands in your way both on and off the road, and it's harnessed by the smooth and seamless gear changes of the Lineartronic® Continuously Variable Transmission System.
The Subaru Forester also comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a dynamic drivetrain that adjusts power sent to each wheel as needed. It's excellent for slick conditions, dirt paths, and other tricky terrain. The available X-MODE further enhances this performance by optimizing the engine output to reduce wheelspin and increase control.

You can pack away all the cargo you need in the Forester, from weekly grocery runs to luggage on your vacation. The trunk area has 28.9 cubic feet of cargo volume to store your everyday things. Fold down the rear seat and you can maximize your cargo capacity to 74.2 cubic feet.
