Every Forester compact SUV features a comfortable, spacious interior with impressive visibility, advanced technology, and high-quality materials. There’s more passenger room than the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson, or Mazda CX-5 1. An extra-wide rear gate opening and available foot-activated power rear gate makes it easy to load gear, and you can fit more cargo in a Forester than the Toyota RAV4 or Mazda CX-5 1. An available 11.6-inch high-resolution Subaru Multimedia touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto  integration plus wireless charging add entertainment and convenience to every drive. There are also premium upholstery options available, including leather- and Dinamica®-trimmed or durable StarTex® upholstery for extra comfort and style.

1 | Based on competitor information from manufacturer websites as of August 2025.
2 | EyeSight is a driver-assist system that may not operate optimally under all driving conditions. The Pre-Collision Braking System is designed to provide automatic braking that either prevents a collision or reduces the severity of a frontal impact. The driver is always responsible for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as vehicle maintenance, weather, and road conditions. See Owner’s Manual for complete details on system operation and limitations.
