    I like how the Subaru dealership gives you a full tank of gas compared to some of the other reviews of trucks and cars you do they give you a car with fumes

    This Forester looks like it would be a good daily driver and long distance freeway cruiser. Plus with that top trim package, you'll be driving in comfort wherever you're going.

    I do love the size and awd system but dang..

    I love my 2025 Subaru Forester. This is my third Forester Touring model. The one issue I have is that the 2025 Forester Touring is missing the Home Link. All lower cost models have Home Link except the Touring. Home Link was in all my previous cars and was important to me. Even the dealer was unaware of this until I tried to set up my garage door opener. Why did Subaru dropped this important function?

      Did you try the Eyesight lane centering? How does it compare to the previous generations of Forester? Eyesight lane-centering was very buggy in previous generations.

    The 2.5 has been around 180 HP for years. They do little to make that engine competive these days. It is slow.

      AWD is at the expense of Fuel Economy. Power Torque all come into that same factor. If the Forester averaged 18-22mpg like the Outback xT would you still want the extra Boost?

    The only thing the Touring is missing is the HOME LINK. I can no longer open my garage or gate from the car! Why Subaru why? I had this in all my other Subarus.

      I have an issue with mine Outback touring xt . The eye sight malfunction frequently. Dealership is working on it. The good thing about forester touring it was made in Japan. I also bought 2018 Crosstrek(made in Japan )for my son and for 6 years never has a problem with an eye sight. My Outback made in Lafayette, Indiana . Quality leaves much to be desired. I’m thinking about forester the vehicle I could keep at least a decade.

      The Outback is a station wagon. Not alot of people care for it. Drives like a boat. I had a loaner when my Forester was in the shop for 10 days.

    Did you find any significant difference in ride comfort between the Sport and the Touring? Another channel commented that the Touring has a quieter and smoother ride.

    It would be nice if Subaru would add a fully digital display for the 2026 model year because this current gauge cluster looks appropriate for ten-15 years ago

      Take a closer look
      Wheel functions are changed.
      Seats are no longer made for fat people
      More speakers
      Center Console is completely different
      Gauges are different

    Love my new Subaru 2025 Touring. Below are some things I noticed.
    Subaru Touring does NOT have Homelink at this time. No buttons to open garage door so you need to keep garage door opener in car,
    (And the viser is to thick to hold the remote clip, so you need to set the remote somewhere)
    Or use a garage door opener app on your phone like My Q. (That involves pulling up the app each time you want to open or close the garage door)
    Subaru Does have ventilated front seats. Love them.
    Subaru Touring has a great sound system.
    Subaru is safer in my opinion in an accident.
    The My subaru app does Not refresh. So if it has Red Alerts from the last time you looked you need to press refresh on the app to receive current status.
    It does not have different colors for door locked or unlocked, or if car is running or not.
    Example, when you open the app, it is not red if door is unlocked and green if locked. Or red if vehicle is running and green if not running.
    The app does NOT send a tex after 5 min or so stating that your car is not locked.
    If you leave the car it does not continually beep to alert you the car is still running if you have your keys with you.
    (Although it will NOT lock if you press the lock button on the door handle)
    Does Not have a beep along with a light flashing when you change lanes. Just the flashing light.
    Love that you can press the mic and say a command. Example, temperature to 70 degrees without having to touch the screen.

    As a Subaru owner and I do love this new but I think it's time for the judges critiques. And there's two of them 1 at rear bumper why is there cutouts for dual exhaust but you have one exhaust pipe I mean how are they going to compete with the CX 50s of the world that do offer dual exhaust so does the RAV4 Honda CRV
    And sorry 180hp are you kidding big wheels have more power
