The 2026 Subaru Forester Has It All
State-of-the-art tech and safety features, off-road credibility, and enviable capabilities are just some of the things the 2026 Subaru Forester delivers. This spacious five-passenger Subaru SUV is outfitted for adventures, no matter what kind of ground you’re covering. Whether you want an off-road vehicle, a pleasant daily driver, or both, the Subaru Forester is worth a look at Casey Subaru.
Power and Performance
Every 2026 Subaru Forester model relies on the same 2.5-liter inline-four engine for motivation. Total system output for the SUV is 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque, allowing the Subaru Forester to make quick work of passing other automobiles on the highway. A continuously variable automatic transmission and all-wheel drive pair nicely with the SUV’s engine.
With the right equipment, most Subaru Forester models can tow up to 1,500 lbs. As the most outdoor-oriented of the SUV’s trims, the Subaru Forester Wilderness can tow as much as 3,500 lbs with ease. The redesigned Subaru Forester Wilderness has 9.3 inches of ground clearance, improved approach, departure, and breakover angles, and Snow/Dirt and Snow/Mud drive modes, which put remote destinations within easy reach.
Technology Features
New Subaru SUVs have the latest technology features, making them great choices for tech enthusiasts. The base 2026 Subaru Forester trim has two seven-inch touchscreens, while higher models are home to an 11.6-inch infotainment touchscreen. Bluetooth® integration and Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity are standard, no matter which infotainment setup the SUV has. HD and satellite radio will make you want to turn up the sound system during your travels.
Safety Features
Laudable safety features are just as plentiful for the 2026 Subaru Forester. The SUV has a forward attention monitor to ensure your attention is on the road ahead. A rear-seat alert will remind you to check the back seats for kids and pets as you exit your vehicle, a capability that has the potential to save lives.
Lane-keep assist will help you maintain your position in the middle of your lane markers. Adaptive cruise control will keep your SUV a safe following distance from the car ahead when it adjusts its speed. Evasive steering assist will steer your SUV around an obstacle if braking isn’t enough to prevent an accident.
