Minor changes have been made across six trim levels, like a $625 option package to the base Forester that adds 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels in silver finish and a ladder-type roof rail design with tie-down points, or the Automatic Emergency Steering feature on select trims.
2023 is the fifth year of the current generation, and we expect to see an all-new Forester with a fully new design from the ground up for the 2024 model year.
New 2023 pricing including a destination fee is as follows: $27,620 Base, $30,620 Premium, $32,190 Sport, $35,245 Wilderness, $34,300 Limited, and $37,720 Touring.
Previous prices were the following: $26,320 Base, $29,320 Premium, $30,890 Sport, $33,945 Wilderness, $33,000 Limited, and $36,420 Touring.
Well, as we can see, a price rise is $1,300 across the lineup.
What’s Good About the Subaru Forester?
There are many advantages, in fact, one of which is the standard four-wheel drive.
The Subaru Forester is a versatile small crossover for a wide range of buyers, with one of the best-in-class quality-value ratios, and a good off-roader in addition. In terms of passenger and cargo areas, it is, again, one of the bests.
The Forester features a pleasant, quiet, well-built interior, though its infotainment system is not at the cutting edge. Also, it can boast a smooth ride, decent handling, and good fuel efficiency (26 city/33 highway MPG).
The compact SUV’s 2.5-liter 182-hp 4-cylinder engine combined with a CVT is economical but not the most powerful. You may lack power on the highway, and the acceleration is so-so.
If you are in doubt about whether to buy a Forester – buy it, and you should not regret it, because the crossover is a decent pick overall with very few real weak points.
