2017 Subaru Forester | CarGurus Test Drive Review

Shop new Subaru Forester listings: https://goo.gl/H8PzK1 Subaru says it redesigned the 2017 Forester, but it doesn’t look much different than last year. It does get improvements to its EyeSight driver-assistance system, adds Siri Eyes Free, and offers more standard and available features. The new version rides on the last-generation Impreza’s platform, but stands much taller than that car to provide lots of cargo capacity. The Forester 2.5i trims get a 2.5-liter boxer four rated at 170 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque, while the 2.0XT trim’s turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine makes 250 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 258 lb-ft of torque. The more powerful engine requires a continuously variable transmission, but a manual is available with the 2.5-liter. The 2.5i trims get considerably better mileage than the XTs. A Forester can do almost anything you need from a car and offers incredible crashworthiness. The 2.5i trims are more cost effective, but the 2.0XTs might need some additional work to meet the expectations set by their price.
