Stay tuned for Part 2 where we DRIVE the new Forester on May 6! Also, if you are looking to buy a Subaru Forester or any new vehicle go to carconfections.com/new-car-quotes to get the BEST price and access to invoice pricing information!
New model looks like an old model, looks like a 20 year old Ford Explorer, interior still looks the same from 10 yrs ago., wake up Subaru. Look at the new Hyundai Santa Fe interior. Keep up with modernity.
If they would just have offered it as a lift back, it would have opened it up to buyers looking for better cargo flexibility. Add to that the upcoming hybrid powertrain, and they might have had a winner!
My husband and I had a 2015 Legacy and it was the Worst car we ever had. We had it for 8 years. In the 1st five years we had to get a new engine, and a new transmission. It was ridiculous.
I think the 2025 looks super. Own a 2024 and would have waited for the 2025 if aware of the body change. Although I like the instrument display better in the 2024.
One BIG drawback....engine use RTV instead of regular gaskets to save money during production. After 10 years the RTV will fail and will leak oil. Expensive repair job!
Looks awful and bigger and heavier which literally not a single person wanted and as if it wasn't bad enough it has no more power.. a 3900 pound car with 180hp.. genius
I am a semi-tall driver and have always appreciated the taller roofline and good outward visibility of the Forester.. But .. Wow.. For the safety monitoring equipment, Subaru (and others) are taking up way way way too much room at the middle of the windshield. I mean the area between the rearview mirror and the windshield.. See 5:57.. Thanks to the location of all that safety monitoring equipment.. It severely cuts down on the view or outward visibility of the taller drivers and passengers. I am especially concerned that this blocks the driver's own outward visibility which is needed for safe driving..
IMO, that is where the Forester shines. Interiors look fantastic compared to the competition. Maybe not as good as Hyundai, but compared to the RAV4 or CRV it looks like something from the future.
@@Ricky-mo6mv We just sold an old high mileage Hyundai, and the interior held up great. Better than any car we have owned and better than some interiors on used cars we were looking at that were just a year or 2 old. It did have the Theta II engine which blew, but they replaced in 3 days with no questions asked.
I really like the Forester, but the new model is disappointing. The front-end looks like a Kia Seltos. The new design no longer distinguishes it from its competitors.
Agreed! We upgraded our 22 Forester to the 24 OB XT. We cant go back to this engine as the only option 😢 They shpuld offer 3 x engine options (2.5 NA, Hybrid, 2.4 T). That would be competitive in the market and that would lengthen the cycle of thos generation. The turbo boxer 4 is just better, a toyota like hybrid in a Subie would kill the market
@@chuckg6039 Around town, I would agree but when we have our 2 kids and some luggage in the car, it becomes slow and noisy especially when we go into the mountains. In my view, 200-225 horsepower / torque would make the Forester almost perfect.
I wanna see the Wilderness edition, maybe in a hybrid form. Probably we have to wait 1 more year. By the way, it looks very similar to a shorter Honda Pilot.
Hope quality is better I have a 19 forester with 50k seats are cracking, center armrest material is wrinkling, radio don’t hold memory, auto start stop is very aggressive overall deff will be the last Subaru I own
Blind spot monitoring should be standard across the whole lineup, at least they are now doing more leds for brake light. Those incandescent are horrible. Not to mention that hvac is all on the screen which is never a good idea.
Did the Forester go from 3 12v sockets to only 2 now because of the wireless charging or is the 3rd now in the glovebox? Sad to see they went hard plastic on the top of the rear door panels for even the higher trims.
I like everything about the new Forester, even the looks however, the one thing I do not like is the standard engine's power and torque. It is way too anemic for me and until they offer more substantial engine choices I will pass. I am waiting to see how the hybrid will compare and I wish they would again offer the turbo engine in the Forester.
@@mitchellhuth I drove a Forester and it could barely get out of its own way, especially on take-off, going up ramps, and trying to merge into flowing traffic. Also, passing another car on a two-lane road you better have a least a mile from oncoming traffic to get around the car you are passing. If they don't come out with more powerful choices then I will probably end up with a Mazda CX50 turbo.
@@ctclardyi agree. i own a 2021 limited crosstrek which thankfully has a 2.5 liter engine 182 HP and its adequate for a car of it's size , however i didn't like the forester when i test drove it. At all. incredibly slow and unwieldy. the hybrid may be a completely different vehicle but i definitely think Subaru took a huge step backwards with the 2025 forester. On a positive note, the hybrid will have Toyota's hybrid system and ECVT which is a completely different transmission. Lets hope Subaru doesn't make the same mistake like in the regular forester
You racing? I mean you kind of look like an old guy like myself. You do understand the Forester gets up to 70-80mph just fine. What's your specific need? 0-60 in 5 seconds? Does your wife love you?
The mileage on the Forester is never what is advertised. (Same with Outback and all the Subarus). Acceleration sucks. This has needed a hybrid for years. I finally gave up and I'm driving a Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. Great ride and much, much better mileage. It makes no sense to me that Toyota owns 20% of Subaru and Subaru has failed to provide hybrid engines across the lineup.
Forget about targeting rav4 and Crv customers, atleast I hope they dont lose their own customers with this ugly new look and still no hybrid option even in 2025.
180 hp is pathetically inadequate for a vehicle of this size. im curious to see what they do in the upcoming hybrid. my limited crosstrek has182 hp. ridiculous
@@randomcarstuff1.0 Correct, I didn't mean specifically the new Forester, but Subaru in general. Whenever I look at the rear end of the Pilot, it reminds me of a Subaru.
I’ve owned several Hondas and Subarus and currently own a 2020 CRV. I honestly don’t think any of them are all that good looking ( talking CRV, RAV4, Forrester ) My CRV is at my vacation home and it honorably does its job of grocery runs and other short trips, while being dependable and practical. It can hold quite a lot of stuff and that’s what makes it an excellent vehicle for us. I owned a 2016 Forrester and really liked it. I would definitely consider this new iteration however it would move quickly to the top of my list if they would just offer a turbo version!
@@Michael-kf7gmCompared to my Outback, it is more boxy - hence why I mentioned it being a _bit_ too boxy. Thankfully it's not some giant brick like a Grand Wagoneer lol
It’s so ugly My grandmas 2020 forester is better trying not to flex but the screen is the right screen how can you even see the petrol on top of the car sensor thing But 2 things I don’t like abt the forester is the windows go down to a little bit and the horsepower is like 110-117
@@gergnotsloh😂 Absolutely. I mean, it’s not even bad looking at all. I’d at least understand if they’re crapping on a stupid design like the Hyundai Kona with split headlights where the fog lights should be. But this Forester is decent looking. Like you said they all have design degrees.😂
@@mrgurulittle7000 Taste is very subjective, especially when it comes to art and design. This includes car design as well. A lot of times cars back in the 90's were called "ugly" all the time and now they are sought after. The thing about Subaru (and I own two - a 2024 Impreza and a 2023 Forester), is that they aren't trying to be all style and no substance - like the KIAs and Hyundais do. They want good quality builds - hint - listen to the door shut, etc. Without too much of the trendy bling.
People aka car enthusiast, no one cares what they think because they aren't the ones buying it anyways. Plus every best selling car isn't on the car enthusiast list of perfect cars.
@@-----------------------------I also find it ironic because it’s the Subaru enthusiasts themselves that crap on every single new Subaru that is introduced after the year 2000. They crapped on every WRX model, Impreza, and Legacy when the new ones just came out. Non Subaru “enthusiasts” are much nicer about new Subarus. I feel bad for Subaru.
Honestly it doesn’t look too bad. It looks better than the current forester. And it’s probably because it looks more like an explorer lol. Why are they withholding an XT version? It would probably be a best seller behind the crosstrek
Thanks, nobody seems to give rear floor lgth. I sleep in vehicle and that is helpful as is mention of inside spare tire. Roof l rack load capacity on Touring?
Why is it so big? Parking it next to a first generation Forester would illustrate how much it's grown. Maybe if manufacturers made smaller models they could price them more affordable.
@@maxd4968 yeah, but what I'm saying is models that were made 30yrs ago have gotten so big and so fancy. Surely that's added unnecessary costs passed on to the consumer.
Maybe people will finally stop buying Subarus as they become increasingly unattractive. And…WHAT is that interior?! If I never see another bumper sticker covered Subaru on the road driving 10 mph below the speed limit it won’t be soon enough. Interestingly, Subaru owners are involved in the most “at fault” accidents than any other manufacturer. Just goes to show that those who choose to drive them live in their own little world of reality.
Why don’t they improve bampers angles to improve off road abilities( especially front bumper)?!😠and buttons climate control is always better. Car itself looks like explorer’s son
I enjoy your videos! You mentioned that you can fold the back seats pulling the buttons in the trunk "electronically" I think this as just a mechanical function and not electronic.
That screen is so big, but the actual used space for the cameras is so tiny. Not a fan of the vertical orientation. Or having all the climate controls on screen.
What a beautiful scenery to test out the all-new 2025 Subaru Forester! Imagine driving at this place at night all alone by yourself on the road in that Subaru Forester! Creepy to the max! Great review as always! But I dislike the new infotainment system, as Subaru is all about safety for the driver.
This is fantastic and more of those luxury features included that are missing on the Honda CRV 2025. Would you mind putting a link where your part 2 is for this Subaru video? I tried to search and can't find it! Or is the embargo not lifted and it's May 2025 until you can do part two. Thanks!

Only true Forester is SF5. Deserved review if U can find one.
Horrible design.
I really want to talk to Subaru's design team to understand how brilliantly they made this ugly look.
Me thinks some bad sushi. 🤣
Subaru never ever built a handsome suv and I never like their style 😂

Absolutely awful brand. It takes a very special person to go out car shopping and come home with a Subaru.
I don't know why y'all are hating, I for one like the styling of the 2025 Subaru Explorer.... 😋
😅😅😅
Me too. New Subarus are always criticized when first launched, but later on people act like they never hated on it.😂But I agree, I like the design.
LOL
Not sure why this is being compared to an Explorer as it does compare to it at all.
Thought I was the only one xD
On a side note, sad to see the Subaru Legacy get discontinued. The sedan apocalypse claims another.

You took the words out of my fingers (because I’m texting).
When was this announced??
I find it looks too much like a Ford...negative for me, but maybe not for others
Would be a positive for me, as they have great looking cars, but think it looks what I typically see for Subaru.
Ford did a good job on the Forrester
Ouch! 😂😂😂😂
I agree. Probably the best car introduced by Ford in years.😂😂
it also looks like 24 crv
Not a Ford. Subarus are far superior
I think the 2025 looks super. Own a 2024 and would have waited for the 2025 if aware of the body change. Although I like the instrument display better in the 2024.
When is the hybrid coming out?❤
supposedly Spring 2025 according to Subaru of America. They’re really making us wait ……….
Subaru estimates about a year but they aren't providing any additional details to us at this time
One BIG drawback....engine use RTV instead of regular gaskets to save money during production. After 10 years the RTV will fail and will leak oil. Expensive repair job!

The Forester is one of the highest rated vehicles by consumers on Edmunds there is. BMW 3 series is another.
Why Subaru gives up the C shape headlight design? Now it just looks like…. ordinary
I really like the Forester, but the new model is disappointing. The front-end looks like a Kia Seltos. The new design no longer distinguishes it from its competitors.
Being a current Forester owner, without a more powerful engine, this new model is a non-starter for us.

2:40 Why are brake lights getting so tiny? Put a bike on the back and these are all blocked.
i think its because LEDs are super bright. but during day time , that is very hard to see though
Subaru needs to step up their speedometer displays and setup. They look extremely outdated without a fully digital option.
If it keeps prices low who cares? Offer it on the top trim as an option imo.
I wish they would ditch the tablet screen. It doesn't work well, and it is too laggy. Give us buttons and knobs, Subaru!
Styling is improved, but still has the horrendous and comically large greenhouse. It’s like a fishbowl.
