Subaru Forester AWD Petrol Design Preview

Clad in a sharper design that reflects its sporty yet robust character, the sixth-generation Forester stretches to 4.67 meters in length.

Occupants enjoy plenty of space in the front and rear with a 2.67-meter wheelbase.

There are also many features that make both short and long journeys particularly comfortable.

Dual-zone automatic climate control and heated front seats are standard, as are a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, a multi-information display, a rearview camera, and an audio system with an 11.6-inch touchscreen, DAB+ digital radio, USB ports, six speakers, and smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

A Qi charging cradle charges your smartphone wirelessly.

Safety is ensured by the enhanced Eyesight system, which combines various assistance systems such as emergency braking, active lane keeping and lane control, stop-and-go assist, and multinational traffic sign recognition.

A driver detection system that warns of drowsiness and distraction, as well as radar-based lane change, blind spot, and rear cross-traffic assist are also on board.

The Subaru model is powered by a 100 kW/136 hp 2.0-liter boxer gasoline engine, assisted by a small electric motor.

The standard e-Boxer mild hybrid system improves responsiveness and fuel efficiency.

Power is transferred to all four wheels by the continuously variable Lineartronic automatic transmission.
