Explore New Subaru Forester Compact SUVs in Toronto, ON

Subaru has never really chased performance or styling trends, and the new Subaru Forester is no different. It has always concentrated on space, flexibility, capability, and value. That approach continues here. This version builds on the recent redesign with a stronger emphasis on refinement and interior room. It doesn’t try to change what the Forester is. Instead, it improves its day-to-day performance, which is exactly what buyers want.

The lineup now has a clearer split than before. Most trims use the familiar 2.5-litre boxer engine, and differences come from equipment and interior finish. The major change sits at the top. Subaru introduces a full hybrid version, which adds a different option for buyers who want better efficiency without giving up AWD or space. Touring remains the value-focused trim; Limited adds comfort and features; and Hybrid Premier offers a different powertrain and the highest level of equipment.

Popular Subaru Forester Trim Levels

The Forester lineup consists of the Convenience, Touring, Sport, Limited, and Hybrid Premier models. The lower trims focus on flexibility and value, while higher trims introduce more comfort and cutting-edge technology. There is no major mechanical difference between gas models, so the real distinction comes from features. Hybrid Premier stands apart with its electrified powertrain and improved fuel economy.

  • Touring: The Touring sits just above the base model. It has 17-inch alloy wheels and keeps a simple exterior design. Inside, cloth seating and a manual passenger seat are standard. Heated front seats are included, along with the full infotainment system and driver-assist features.
  • Limited: The Limited takes the new Subaru Forester in a more refined direction. It adds 18-inch alloy wheels and more upscale exterior styling. Inside, leather seating, a power-adjustable passenger seat, and heated rear seats are standard. The same engine remains, but the cabin feels more upscale than the base model.
  • Hybrid Premier: The Hybrid Premier is the top-of-the-range model that introduces the new hybrid system. It combines a 2.5-litre boxer engine with an electric motor for a combined 194 horsepower. Fuel efficiency improves significantly. It also adds a 12.3-inch digital driver display, premium materials, and additional features that set it apart from the gas models.
  • Other Trim Levels: Convenience and Sport trim levels complete the lineup. Convenience covers the entry point with essential features, while Sport adds visual upgrades and a slightly more distinctive appearance without changing the underlying mechanical setup.

Subaru Forester Key Features

The Subaru Forester represents excellent value at all trim levels. It also remains one of the most flexible and versatile models in its class. The standard AWD system means every trim is ready for anything. Engine choice is straightforward: gas models deliver the same output, while the hybrid offers improved efficiency. The technology is centred on a large vertical display, and advanced safety systems are included across the lineup.

  • Engine and Fuel Economy: Gas models employ a 2.5-litre SUBARU BOXER four-cylinder engine producing 180 horsepower and 178 lb.-ft. of torque. The Hybrid Premier uses a 2.5-litre boxer engine with an electric motor, producing 194 horsepower combined. All trims use a Lineartronic CVT and full-time AWD. Gas models return 9.1 L/100 km in the city, 7.2 L/100 km on the highway, and 8.3 L/100 km combined. The hybrid returns 6.8 L/100 km in the city, 7.0 L/100 km on the highway, and 6.9 L/100 km combined.
  • Seating and Cargo Capacity: The Subaru Forester is a two-row compact SUV seating five. Front legroom is 1,094 mm, and rear legroom is 1,000 mm. Cargo space behind the rear seats is approximately 838-860 litres. With the seats folded, available space rises to over 2,100 litres with a flat load floor.
  • Technology and Connectivity: All models feature an 11.6-inch vertical infotainment touchscreen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, along with Bluetooth and multiple USB ports. The Hybrid Premier adds a 12.3-inch digital driver display and wireless charging. Subaru connected services are also available through the MySubaru system.
  • Safety and Driver-Assist: Every Forester includes EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. Standard systems include Adaptive Cruise Control, Automatic Emergency Braking, and lane-centring functions. Reverse Automatic Braking is also included. Additional features include Emergency Stop Assist and expanded driver monitoring systems, which improve active safety across the lineup.
