Agreed! We upgraded our 22 Forester to the 24 OB XT. We cant go back to this engine as the only option 😢 They shpuld offer 3 x engine options (2.5 NA, Hybrid, 2.4 T). That would be competitive in the market and that would lengthen the cycle of thos generation. The turbo boxer 4 is just better, a toyota like hybrid in a Subie would kill the market

I am a semi-tall driver and have always appreciated the taller roofline and good outward visibility of the Forester.. But .. Wow.. For the safety monitoring equipment, Subaru (and others) are taking up way way way too much room at the middle of the windshield. I mean the area between the rearview mirror and the windshield.. See 5:57.. Thanks to the location of all that safety monitoring equipment.. It severely cuts down on the view or outward visibility of the taller drivers and passengers. I am especially concerned that this blocks the driver's own outward visibility which is needed for safe driving..

The take rate for the old Forester Turbo was not high. The issue with the old Turbo was it used Premium fuel. Put the 2.4 liter turbo from the Outback in it (using regular fuel) and it will sell. Do you think Subaru will ever put the Outback Turbo in the Forester?

I’ve owned several Hondas and Subarus and currently own a 2020 CRV. I honestly don’t think any of them are all that good looking ( talking CRV, RAV4, Forrester ) My CRV is at my vacation home and it honorably does its job of grocery runs and other short trips, while being dependable and practical. It can hold quite a lot of stuff and that’s what makes it an excellent vehicle for us. I owned a 2016 Forrester and really liked it. I would definitely consider this new iteration however it would move quickly to the top of my list if they would just offer a turbo version!

I love my 2023 Forester Limited. It is roomy, works well with me being a taller fella, is packed with good safety features and I have never had a problem with traction in snow (which I see a fair amount of). That being said! I am kind of dissapointed on how little seems to be changed exterior wise. The infotainment is cool, but that never really was a big deal for me to begin with. I just wish it overall looked a little more sleek and modern. It just isn't the prettiest, and thats ok. Im sure it will still be a really solid choice moving forward for people that aren't wanting to spend extra money for the brand names of some of it's competition.

@@mrgurulittle7000 Taste is very subjective, especially when it comes to art and design. This includes car design as well. A lot of times cars back in the 90's were called "ugly" all the time and now they are sought after. The thing about Subaru (and I own two - a 2024 Impreza and a 2023 Forester), is that they aren't trying to be all style and no substance - like the KIAs and Hyundais do. They want good quality builds - hint - listen to the door shut, etc. Without too much of the trendy bling.

@@mitchellhuth I drove a Forester and it could barely get out of its own way, especially on take-off, going up ramps, and trying to merge into flowing traffic. Also, passing another car on a two-lane road you better have a least a mile from oncoming traffic to get around the car you are passing. If they don't come out with more powerful choices then I will probably end up with a Mazda CX50 turbo.

​@@ctclardyi agree. i own a 2021 limited crosstrek which thankfully has a 2.5 liter engine 182 HP and its adequate for a car of it's size , however i didn't like the forester when i test drove it. At all. incredibly slow and unwieldy. the hybrid may be a completely different vehicle but i definitely think Subaru took a huge step backwards with the 2025 forester. On a positive note, the hybrid will have Toyota's hybrid system and ECVT which is a completely different transmission. Lets hope Subaru doesn't make the same mistake like in the regular forester

You racing? I mean you kind of look like an old guy like myself. You do understand the Forester gets up to 70-80mph just fine. What's your specific need? 0-60 in 5 seconds? Does your wife love you?

@@-----------------------------I also find it ironic because it’s the Subaru enthusiasts themselves that crap on every single new Subaru that is introduced after the year 2000. They crapped on every WRX model, Impreza, and Legacy when the new ones just came out. Non Subaru “enthusiasts” are much nicer about new Subarus. I feel bad for Subaru.

Nope. Glad I went with the 2023 Forester Wilderness last year. HATE the digital screen and digital buttons for everything. A digital rearview is also unnecessary. Just another piece of electronic to sit outside all winter. Don't even get me started on how they lost their signature design. Looking like a 2015 mini Ford Explorer?! What were they thinking? It looks boring.

@@subieadventures777 Ditto, glad i purchased a 2021 limited crosstrek. i can't believe i have a 2.5 liter 182 hp engine and get 40-41 mpg on a straight highway road @65 mph at times. 180 hp is seriously underpowered for a car of the foresters size and the mpg isn't too great though not bad. hopefully the hybrid will have better MPG and torque.

@@user-qu8pd6fu7g Clean Lines: a minimalist design characteristic that contributes to simplicity and clarity, often portrayed with straight, crisp lines that create a sense of order and visual harmony. This Forester is curvy and weirdly shaped. You’re welcome that I was able to teach you something.

Why is it so big? Parking it next to a first generation Forester would illustrate how much it's grown. Maybe if manufacturers made smaller models they could price them more affordable.

I'm not sure about the seats "not reclining" as stated in the video. Forester's back seats have always reclined since several generations back so I don't see why they'd take this feature away. There should be little pull strings to the side that reclines the back.
