LOL. I literally had to rewind it. Wait. That was a ford. Ok, no problem, I'll go along. But then it show the car. Wait, was that really a ford? LOL. Well done. And am I hearing you say Ford'ester?
I can't stand carmakers that try to make all their cars look the same, like BMW, Lexus, Mazda, etc. It's always fascinated me that Subaru make two similar - but different looking - cars like the Outback and Forester. I have an old 2006 Forester. It's done 350,000 kms, and is still going strong. I'll buy another one soon, and agree that the 2025 model is the most attractive Forester design Subaru have introduced for many years.
I am a big big fan of the CX 5 as well. But me wanting to own at least two vehicles in my garage, it's gonna be the CX 5 and this new Subaru Forester. And I prefer AWD and 4x4 vehicles, which are the perfect vehicles to use here in our province. Great review of this new Forester!
Apparently the 2026 subaru forester will be only available in a hybrid engine according to various UA-cam platforms greetings from oakville Ontario Canada
A lot new cars when they come out I hate the looks but overtime I get used to it don’t mind it (like the 2021 e class) same with this except the front I can’t it’s been out for some time I’ve seen like 30 irl and can’t
14 model had a XT turbo version, this is just the same ballless NA turd they've been selling for 2 decades. I'd bet every subaru designer lives in an all white apartment. They need go fire the whole design team, but won't cause the soccer moms all switched out of now nonexistent minivan kid haulers into "safe" suvs
What's best? Forester, CX-5, CX-50, Bronco Sport, Escape, Rogue, Outlander, Tucson, Sportage, Tiguan, Equinox, Terrain, CRV, or RAV 4?
For the driving pleasure Mazda CX-50, for everyday car CRV. We need New Tiguan for review
@@Alex-it9je definitely will review it as soon as we can!
Mazda !
Looks: CX-5
Great review Ian! You were very “kind” about the rather uncompetitive 0-60 time!
i love analog gauges it looks clean and not so overwhelming
You thought we would not see that ford did you
What Ford? 👀
that ecoboost is quick for what it is

You did an amazing job Ian. I like your reviews just as much. Hopefully we can get a Mercedes-Benz CLE 450 next.

The Ford Escape Front
Great job, Ian!
Very awaiting Forester XT
Good job Ian.
Appreciate that thank you!
Took a test drive and there is so much to like about the car - just wish it had more power and a smoother, quieter engine.
Maybe what you're looking for is a Mazda Cx5, if a compact SUV is a must
Great review.....Subaru still has a lit to catch up with hybrids and tech....
Fordester, I still have 2007 for local trips, simple easy
Fordester, thats a good one.
Nicely done Ian - a little less frenetic than Mike and that's suitable for the Forester.
Great video guys. Subaru is an interesting brand, but there is no argument that they are everywhere these days.
Hi, I'm new to your channel, I don't know the other guy but you did a great job, you should keep doing (appearìng) on your videos

Nice ford explorer
Bring back the 04 Forrester that used to pump mustangs this is just a granny waggon might as well make it an eight seater at least
subaru's WORST IN CLASS infotainment system is an absolute dealbreaker

🔥🔥🔥
you guys should review the subaru outback
Yeah, if Subaru puts them back on the Canadian Press Fleet, we will.
Nice ford escape
Was looking forward to a new Forester but. .when it lost power from the 220hp JDM spec to NonTurbo CVT.....ill probably go with a Ford Everest turbo.
Wish we got the Everest here in North America
thought that was an Edge at the beginning. lol, silly me
Silly you indeed
Would have been a better stand in to use a 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander.
This is the Birkenstock of cars. Really practical but ugly. CX50 hybrid is probably the sweet spot in this segment.
Haha! We will be driving the CX50 Hybrid in November!
I think they will make a new model for Europe, at least with 197 PS Hybrid like in Toyota, but not here!!!!!!!😂😂😂
What's up with the Ford Edge in the intro? Looks pretty close though 😁
Not sure what you're talking about 👀 heh.
@@ACCELER8TV I think that was the point, the design is almost the same.
Did you check if the heating seats are warm enough? Some people complain it doesn't work properly.
It was so hot that week I forgot to check. The air condition seats were great though.
This car is specifically designed for 65 year-old ladies. I mean come on, what's the difference between 2014 model and 2025 model?

Su ba woo
Google translates “su ba woo” to if he calls😂
What if you say Porsche? Puh Shah?
Hello please do us a land cruiser vxl's or one u can get please please.
Next review we drop will be the North American Land Cruiser First Edition. 👍
WTF is 2025 and still have less than 200 HP what a joke.
I will die of happiness if I receive a new subscriber notification 🙏🏾😭😭
Why not cough up a couple more grand for a Honda passport. You get a vtec V6 and more spacious. This foster doesn’t make sense for $47K CAD
6K less in the US!
Gross. Subaru is dead to me.
ill skip this years model
