4-way steering column
To help set your optimum driving position, the adjustable steering wheel tilts up-down and telescopes in-out. |
TECHNOLOGY: SYMMETRICAL ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
Control leads to confidence, and stability creates an agility that excites in the Forester. Subaru vehicles are gifted at inspiring confidence behind the wheel, thanks to the inherently stable design of Symmetrical AWD paired with the uniquely balanced SUBARU BOXER engine. This system delivers power to all four wheels at all times for enhanced control on all roads and in poor conditions. It has excellent side-to-side balance and handling precision, thanks to its main components being aligned longitudinally, whilst its low centre of gravity creates an especially engaging and responsive drive. The unique advantages of Symmetrical AWD make for exceptionally rewarding handling and empower you to better avoid danger
Increased Stability
Because the engine block has a flatter profile and sits lower in the chassis, the overall vehicle is more stably balanced and resistant to side-to-side motion than other designs. |
Long-lasting Performance
The engine's flat design is inherently rigid and self-balancing to achieve durability and reliable performance, generating less vibration than V-type or in-line engines in the same class. |
Engineering that doesn't quit.
The Forester was engineered to help you conquer ledges, rocks, trees and other obstacles you may encounter without sustaining damage or getting stuck. The larger the object, the larger the approach and departure angles needed to prevent damage to the front and rear bumpers. Optimised for both, the Forester’s ground clearance maximises break-over angles, minimising your chances of being hung up from underneath. |
TECHNOLOGY: ENGINE
SUBARU BOXER ENGINE
Few other SUVs drive with the level of confidence and responsiveness of the Forester, and the main reason for this lies beneath the surface — the SUBARU BOXER engine. Its horizontally opposed configuration places the pistons 180 degrees apart, for a lower, flatter profile than other engine types. This gives the engine, and therefore the overall vehicle, a lower centre of gravity and better sense of balance. Further, the pistons’ opposing movements inherently counteract each other, naturally helping to reduce vibration.

SUBARU BOXER 2.0-litre Turbocharged DOHC
The newly developed 2.0-litre direct injection turbo (DIT) engine provides a dynamic driving experience without compromise. Enjoy the power come through the Lineartronic CVT - designed with efficiency and environmental performance that surpasses what you previously thought possible from an SUV. |
SUBARU BOXER 2.0-litre DOHC
Naturally smooth and strong, the 2.0-litre DOHC engine delivers more low to mid-range torque whilst maintaining high fuel efficiency. This smart design makes it more responsive around town, more satisfying on the highway, and cleaner running on virtually any road. |
TECHNOLOGY: TRANSMISSION
YOUR LINK WITH THE ROAD.
The supremely developed Subaru transmission technology is designed to deliver every ounce of the Forester's potential to the road surface at all times. The automatic transmission will keep you in full control, whilst working hand-in-hand with the Symmetrical AWD system to provide you with driving satisfaction in most conditions.

SI-Drive
Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-DRIVE) can adjust the responsiveness of its drivetrain to support your driving style, road conditions or any driving state at your immediate request. Quickly re-map the throttle response and automatic-transmission shifting behaviour to ensure that you always have the best performance for any circumstance |

TECHNOLOGY: DRIVABILITY
EVERYDAY PROTECTED.
Every Subaru is designed with safety as a top priority. Our passion for protection shows in the way we build each of our vehicles. We engineer them to be extraordinarily strong and extremely smart. It's a commitment we take pride in as a long-standing leader in automotive safety to continue developing innovative technology - protecting you every step of the way.

X-Mode
"X" marks added capability for any driver, on most any road. With a push of a button, X-Mode takes control of the engine, transmission, AWD, brakes, and other components to safely navigate through bad roads, slippery surfaces and even the steepest hills for maximum confidence. When X-Mode is activated, Hill Descent Control automatically helps to maintain a constant speed when the Forester is travelling downhill. The focus can be on steering safely through any curve on the downhill whilst leaving the braking to the Forester. |
Vehicle Dynamics Control System
Standard on every Forester, the Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) monitors and analyses if the vehicle is following the driver's intended course via an array of sensors. If the vehicle approaches the limits of stability whilst cornering or avoiding an obstacle, the AWD torque distribution, engine output and brakes at each wheel are adjusted to assist in keeping the vehicle on course. |
Front suspension
A firmer front suspension gives the Forester a positive balance between ride comfort and handling over a variety of surfaces. For DIT models, the front suspension is further stiffened with higher spring rates to enhance roll control and improve response. The new friction-control oil seals, guide bushings and hydraulic fluid on the struts also work together to smoothen out minor vibrations during initial acceleration.

Rear suspension
For the first time, high-response valves for the rear shock absorber have been adopted to maximise stability and provide increased responsiveness. And for the DIT model, a rear support sub-frame has been added for a more rigid base to mount the rear suspension. Working together they make the rear of the Forester feel more controlled and the steering more responsive.

SAFETY
YOUR SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY.
The Forester is designed to protect its occupants with a series of advanced systems and features, balancing rigid strength with controlled deformation in key areas to better manage impact forces. Systematically placed airbags, whiplash-reducing front seats, retracting pedals and 3-point seatbelts are all part of providing safety to the occupants directly. |
Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame
The Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frames strengthen the passenger cabin's roof, doors, pillars and floor. This design helps divert and dissipate impact energy away from the occupants in a collision by use of high-strength materials and strategic placements. Whilst making it stronger with increased torsional rigidity, the overall frame is still lightweight. |
Break Away Engine
Every Subaru goes above and beyond common practice when it comes to your safety. In the event of a head-on collision, the SUBARU BOXER engine and gearbox are designed to absorb the impact and break away from the cabin for your protection. |
Seats, seatbelts and SRS*1 Airbags
Standard on Forester are front SRS airbags, plus front-side and curtain SRS airbags. Also, a driver's side knee SRS airbag greatly increases protection of the lower extremities in frontal impacts. Height-adjustable front seatbelts feature pretensioners to hold passengers firmly in place, and load limiters that ease peak forces to the chest. In a rear collision, front seats utilise rigid frames, firm headrests and such details as energy-absorbing mounting of the inner seat springs, all to help reduce the chance of whiplash. |
All-Round Visibility
The Forester is highly ranked for superior visibility. By redesigning the A-pillar and integrating the partition windows into the front doors, we greatly reduced the size of blind spots. The side mirrors have also been placed onto the door panels, creating a remarkably open field of view. You can see easily in both the front and rear directions, so driving in the city on narrow roads is never a problem. |
