The Forester first appeared in Naperville Subaru showrooms in 1998. It was one of the original entries into what is now referred to as the “compact crossover” vehicle sector.

Forester Performance
The standard engine for all Forester models is a 2.5L four cylinder putting out 182HP. In its standard configuration, expect 26 miles per gallon in the city and 33 MPG on the highway. These are excellent numbers for the vehicle’s class. The Forester is even more impressive when you consider it is a full-time all-wheel-drive vehicle, which often lowers fuel economy.
