Key Features of the 2026 Subaru Forester
Performance

The new Forester proves that capable means so much more than how many horses are under the hood. Consider how the Subaru Forester gets the most out of its standard 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER® 4-cylinder engine, offering an estimated 26 city / 33 highway MPG. Driving a CUV should grant you better stability and traction, and that’s just what you get when you upgrade the Forester with all-wheel drive. Don’t forget about these additional performance specs:
- Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-DRIVE®)
- 1,500 pounds maximum towing capacity
- 4-wheel independent suspension
Technology

Subaru understands that cutting-edge technology is a priority for all CUV drivers. Options for additional safety features help you monitor the road, navigate tight parking lots, and protect passengers. While safety is a major plus, you should also take the wheel to see the upgrades made to infotainment and multimedia features across the dashboard. Below are a few more available technology features of this CUV:
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System
- Keyless entry system
- Brake Assist
