It was first unveiled in 1997 and has been popular with drivers since then as they have enjoyed the reliable, fun and safe package.

The refreshed version offers more capability, new safety functions, improved driving dynamics and new convenience features.
Engine for the Subaru Forester e-Boxer
The engine for the Subaru Forester e-Boxer is a 2.0-litre engine with an electric motor.
From a standing start, and when travelling at low speeds, the new model is powered by electric alone.
At medium speed, the engine and motor work together to deliver fuel-efficient motoring and at high speed, the engine works alone.
Subaru says that the 2.0-litre offering delivers responsive torque across the range and the driver-selectable modes help deliver the fun with drivers able to choose ‘sport’ or ‘intelligent’ for enjoyment.
Subaru Forester is renowned for its off-road capabilities
However, the Subaru Forester is renowned for its off-road capabilities and there’s ground clearance of 220 mm.
The model comes with X-Mode to deliver better grip across a range of road and weather conditions.
When driving downhill, the control function delivers seamless control so drivers can focus on handling the vehicle.
The new model offers a towing capacity of 1,870 kg and the boot space is 509 litres.
This expands to useful 1,779 litres when the rear seats are folded flat, and the boot also features cargo hooks to boost the car’s practicality.
