    I’ll be buying a 2025 as soon as it comes available. My reasons are the changes in sheet metal, sound insulation, and structural elements resulting in an improved ride and noise level. None of which you mentioned.

    Unfortunately, when I first saw the front-end of the 2025 Subaru Forester, the first car I thought of was the Kia Seltos and I can't get past it. I'm open for change, but I'd much rather go with the 2024 Subaru Sport.

    2025 looks like a ford escape, the 2024 looks more bold and stands out from other suvs in its class. Do away with the engine auto shut off, then I will consider trading in my 2017.

    I'm going with the 2024 because of the raised roof rails. I feel like a set of Yakima or Thule cross bar are more secure with the wrap around towers rather than the more flush mounted rails. I also like the knobs to control heat/cool rather than relying on the touch screen for controls.

    My wife purchased a Limited 2024 last month. Great vehicle on snow and ice. I have to admit I like the body style of the 2025 better. I like the analog controls in the 24 vs the screen controls of the 25. Curious as to the colors offered for 2025.

      We got a 2024 Forester Limited knowing that the big screen was coming in '25. Disliked the big screen in my 2020 Outback. Slow, distracting. Bring back physical knobs, switches, dials.

  • @garyrobinette351
    @garyrobinette351 5 місяців тому +3

    They have had that big screen in the Outback for a while. If it fails, it is a $3K part to replace. I kind of like having the screens separated like in the older models than the larger screen. But I will cross that bridge in a couple of years when I replace my 2019.

    One deciding variable not known at this writing is price. How much more for the 25? All things equal, I'm confident the 25 will be the better buy, with better enhancements all the way, a better ride, smoother, with sharper handling, and quieter.....with better residuals.down the road. Nice comparison video! Thx.

    The 2025 model is as different from the 24 just as the 2010 Outback was from the 09. The 25 offers a much more mainstream design both in exterior and interior. The design is quite understated, and still is quite no nonsense.

I find touchscreens very distracting as they force you to take your eyes off the road due to no tactile feel. The styling looks like every other compact SUV on the market.

I am a little perturbed that all the extras that they include on the premium edition, which is well worth it, they do not put body side moldings on the car, I will pay for that feature.

      The bronze detailing is only on the 2025 Sport trim. The bronze basically replaces the orange/red stripe running around the 2024 Sport. This video does a really poor job of distinguishing trim lines between the years. The 2025 model shown is the Touring line, with leather throughout the interior, and that's compared/contrasted to lower trims of the 2024 model making it look like 2025 is a much richer car.
