What Changes Are In Store For The 2026 Subaru Forester?
Subaru's latest rendition on the Forester will look and feel very similar to the 2025 offering of the compact crossover SUV. The masterminds at Subaru have smartly opted to leave 2026 Subaru Forester virtually unchanged.
What Are The Differences Between The 2025 And The 2026 Subaru Forester?
The differences between the 2025 and 2026 Subaru Forester are minimal, with most updates occurring for the 2025 model year. For 2025, Subaru introduced LED fog lights and a Crystal Black Silica rear roof spoiler on the Premium trim. The Limited trim received new black geometric fog light covers, adding a more refined exterior touch.
Inside the cabin, Subaru made several subtle but practical upgrades. Rear grab handles now include integrated coat hooks for added convenience, and the center console on the Base, Premium, and Limited trims has been updated with simulated leather and contrast stitching-replacing the previous resin-topped design for a more upscale feel.
One of the most significant updates for the 2025 Subaru Forester is the expansion of standard safety features, particularly on base models. Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology now comes standard and includes Lane Departure and Sway Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, Pre-Collision Throttle Management, and Pre-Collision Braking-enhancing safety and confidence across the entire lineup.
What Trim Levels Are Available For The Subaru Forester?
The Subaru Forester is offered in six trim levels: Base, Premium, Sport, Limited, Touring, and Wilderness. Each trim is designed to meet different driving needs, from everyday commuting to rugged outdoor exploration.
The Wilderness trim is purpose-built for adventure, featuring enhanced ground clearance, off-road-focused capability, and durability upgrades ideal for drivers who spend time beyond paved roads.
At the top of the lineup sits the Touring trim, which delivers the most refined and upscale experience available in the Forester range. The Forester Touring includes premium interior materials, heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, DriverFocus® driver monitoring technology, and advanced driver-assistance and convenience features-making it the most luxurious Forester offered.
 | What Are The Features Of The 2026 Subaru ForesterEngine & PerformanceThe Subaru Forester is powered by a 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER® four-cylinder engine across the lineup. For 2026, this engine produces approximately 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on every trim. The Forester maintains a 1,500-pound towing capacity, making it well suited for small trailers, bikes, or outdoor gear. Thanks to its low center of gravity and refined suspension tuning, the Forester delivers confident handling, responsive steering, and strong braking performance-resulting in a composed and comfortable driving experience for both city and highway travel. Fuel EfficiencyEfficiency remains a key strength of the Subaru Forester. Despite its standard all-wheel-drive system, the Forester delivers competitive fuel economy within the compact SUV segment. EPA estimates for the Forester are approximately 26 mpg city and 33 mpg highway, helping drivers balance everyday practicality with long-term fuel savings. With its blend of efficiency, traction, and durability, the Forester continues to stand out as a well-rounded compact crossover designed for real-world driving. |
Interior
The Subaru Forester offers a comfortable, spacious, and thoughtfully designed cabin that prioritizes everyday usability. Both front and rear passengers enjoy generous headroom and legroom, while the interior layout blends refined materials with practical storage solutions. Subaru's signature excellent outward visibility remains a key advantage, giving drivers a clear view of their surroundings that few compact crossovers can match.
Cargo space continues to be a strong point, with the Forester offering class-leading versatility for groceries, gear, and weekend adventures. At the center of the cabin is Subaru's modern infotainment system, now featuring a large, portrait-style touchscreen display on most trims. Powered by the latest STARLINK® interface, the system includes wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, available built-in navigation, onboard Wi-Fi capability, and multiple USB ports throughout the cabin-making it easy for everyone to stay connected on the go.
Safety Features
Safety has always been a cornerstone of the Subaru brand, and the Forester continues that tradition with a strong focus on driver confidence and passenger protection. The Forester builds on Subaru's long-standing safety reputation, having earned multiple top safety recognitions over the years and consistently performing well in crash-avoidance testing, including pedestrian detection.
A major contributor to this safety performance is standard Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology, which includes features such as automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and lane-keeping assist. These systems work together to help monitor traffic conditions, reduce driver fatigue, and provide added peace of mind on every drive.
- Wilderness Option : Built for life beyond the pavement, the Subaru Forester Wilderness delivers enhanced off-road capability and rugged design. With 9.2 inches of ground clearance, underbody skid plating, and Yokohama Geolandar® all-terrain tires, it's ready to tackle challenging terrain with confidence.
Exclusive suspension tuning, Dual-Function X-MODE® with Hill Descent Control, and CVT enhancements improve low-speed traction and control, while towing capacity increases to 3,000 pounds. Bold exterior cladding, Wilderness badging, water-repellent upholstery, and a front-view camera round out a compact SUV designed for serious adventure.
