🏆Name SUVs that are better than Subaru Forester. 🤔

2023 Subaru Forester Sport owner here. I switched from Toyota’s. I had 4 of them over the years, including the Rav 4. I’ve had my Forester for about a year now and I LOVE it. I actually love it more than any of my Toyota’s. I considered buying another Rav 4, but would have paid so much more for the same features. I love how simple the Forester is. It’s very functional. I live in a city and the acceleration is plenty. Gas mileage is good too for the size. Overall, great small SUV and I highly recommend!

I did a lot of research for a couple months on the CRV, Rav 4, Mazda and Subaru Forester. I think the CRV was the best looking of the 4. The Rav was expensive to get the Subaru options as was the Mazda. In the end I went with the 2024 Forester Sport because i wanted the dual X mode and 2.5 engine and loved the black rims. I love the heated seats and Softec seat material. The Harmon Kardin stereo rocks. The engine power is perfectly fine and this is coming from somebody who has owned 2 Corvettes. I absolutely live everything about this vehicle and plan on keeping it for a long time.

Ok, if you're going to complain about the Forrester's fuel economy, at least compare apples to apples. To put the Forrester up against it's hybrid competition isn't close to fair. How does the Forrester compare to the non hybrid CR-V and Rav4? I've got a 2022 Outback that I traded a 2013 Rav4 for. The Rav4 rarely approached it's EPA estimated fuel economy ratings, something that always disappointed me. My Outback has easily matched it's EPA estimates which means it has routinely returned 2.5 to 3 mpg better, across the board, than my Rav4 and that's with the Outback's AWD besting the Rav4's 2-wheel drive.

The two things I can’t stand are what this video praises. Turbo charged engines, and the annoying huge infotainment screen that Forester luckily doesn’t have. The Wilderness cladding looks cheesy?? Insane. That’s my favorite part.

My Outback XT goes 0-60 in 6 seconds. It’s fun to drive, and it goes anywhere❤

Comparing any faux jeep or junky escape to a Subaru tells me all i need to know…loon review

[gaildulgar]

A turbo? It, s 40 cents more per gallon to fill the tank, and the milage is no better... if you are buying an awd, get your foot off the pedal and enjoy the scenery.

Those 6 reasons won't affect me from buying the Subaru Forester. I just bought a used 2020 Forester Touring with 50Kmi. last week, in white with brown leather interior. I'm driving Honda Odyssey and my wife is driving Toyota Highlander. This car will be for my 18yrs old son so he can drive to UofH soon. This will be the first Subaru for me, for my family. After doing a lot of research, I decided to buy a Forester for my son. The main reason is safety and insurance cost. We only have this car for a week and so far, to be honest, I like it very much. MPG is around 29.5 for mix city/hwy driving. It has a lot of custom settings which I like. It has even more bells and whistles than my wife 2017 Highlander Platinum (except for 3D bird eyes view). This car is Made in Japan which I just found out later on. All in all, me my wife and my son like it so far.

Every time I drive an Outback as a loaner car at my dealer, I realize I like driving the Forester much more, the increased height, the best visibility.

[hereszonny]

Just traded in a 2002 Forester with OVER 400, 000 KLM's on it, Done well for the Wife for over 18 years without any issues and now with no more Footy training & Game Days, Dance lessons & Dance Comps believe the BRAND NEW FORESTER should see us into Our 80's😊

Forester best compact SUv for the price range

[GrNotion]

I’ve had mine for 3 years. Still love it. Never had any issues and I’m keeping it for a lifetime

[geraldthompson]

Moral of this sad comparison…buy a forester or an outback…nuff said

[mstack]

They're showing you a 2025 Forester - not the 2024.

I drive Subaru for years, no challenges at all. Performs enough to meet my needs. The AWD is underrated. This car never stops for muddy rugged roads... It just keeps going

[carlrasmussen]

Shopping for any car is an exercise in compromises. You can't get a car with every advantage. Subarus perform quite well, however, you'll need to adjust to a few of the things mentioned in this video. Personally, I don't flash and flare. My '14 Forester and '16 Legacy are more than competent vehicles. I even enjoy changing my own motor oil as the filter is on top of the engine.

Disregard this video and buy the Forester. You won't regret it.

I've been all over this segment (compact SUV) as I search for the replacement for my Forester XT. The bottom line seems to be that it is difficult to get everything in one place. Towing for example. The CRV Hybrid actually loses 500 lbs to the 1.5L turbo CRV, and is only rated for 1, 000 lbs. If you opt for the Wilderness edition of the Forester, you can tow up to 3500 lbs. The stock RAV4 hybrid tows 1750 lbs. Maybe the Woodland is higher, but you do lose some mpg (ditto the Wilderness, as it's shorter gearing kills highway mpg). If you like some of the all-weather aids, you can't get fog lights (factory/dealer) on a CRV or CX-5/50. Honda even teases you with little chrome accents on the lower grill. And btw, the "go anywhere" CRV Hybrid does NOT have a spare tire, but instead a tire repair kit. Useless if you gash a sidewall or have anything bigger than a nail/screw sized leak. Not confidence inspiring if you use your vehicle for light off-roading. In this price range, most everything is somewhat of a compromise between price, reliability ratings, mpg, acceleration, useable cargo area, back seat room, etc. Apparently the electronic only AWD works fine in the RAV4 (rear wheels only driven by electric motor. A clever idea to eliminate the drivetrain, but when the roads get really slick or mud/snow gets deep, is it as good? Haven't seen anyone really address this.) Right now, the '24 Foresters are discounted (at least in my region) as the '25's are about to arrive. For a similarly equipped RAV 4 hybrid, it is several thousand more. (Comparing the Limited with 032 package) and the payback on gas savings is on the order of 10 years out if you drive 12K per year and use gas at $ 4.50 (regular in my region now). The CX-5/50 are just as sluggish as the Forster, unless you opt for the turbo versions, then expect combined 25 mpg. And cargo space, rear seat space are compromised. So, choose your compromise.
