Compare the Subaru Forester to the Competition
Subaru Forester vs. the Competition
Performance & Capabilities
The Subaru Forester is adventure-ready no matter which trim level you choose. That's because Subaru's legendary symmetrical all-wheel drive is included as standard equipment. Unlike competitors like the Honda CR-V or Volkswagen Tiguan, which come with standard front-wheel drive, the Subaru Forester is designed to have all-wheel drive with power and weight evenly distributed. The Forester also has a higher ground clearance than most competitors, with a standard 8.7 inches for newer models and 9.2 inches for Wilderness trims.
Technology
The new Subaru Forester offers a brilliant 11.6-inch infotainment touchscreen on all but the base model. The system is easy to use, features large icons and responsive touch controls, and is purposely designed for less driver distraction. Wireless Apple CarPlay© and Android Auto™ are standard, as well as hands-free conveniences like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi hotspots. Another perk in the Forester is the included wireless smartphone charging pad - you typically have to pay extra in competing models.
Safety Features
The new Subaru Forester features the latest EyeSight Suite of advanced safety and driver assistance features. The Forester has consistently earned Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) and includes adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking at no additional cost.
