Forester vs Outback Comparison

This video shares some of the key differences between the Subaru Forester and Outback

I really like the looks of the Outback, but after driving it, the Forester, and all the similar sized competition, both my wife and I liked the Forester so much that we just took delivery of our new 2023 Forester Limited in Horizon Blue Pearl 10 days ago. I call it the Bluebaru.

I want a Forester with turbo-charged engine. I hope Subaru will make it available soon.

After looking at both, they are very different but both enjoyable to drive. Bought a 23 outback premium in autumn green … been driving VW for over 20 years so a big change for me to go subaru and this car is easily climbing as one of my favorites I’ve ever owned

Physical climate controls. Give them back to the entire lineup plz.

I went back and forth between the 2 but ultimately decided on the Forester. I just like the overall look better.
Just got my ‘23 Forester Touring 12 days ago! Her name is RubyRoo and I love her!!!
Thank you for all your great YouTube videos!

I got the outback xt turbocharged 2022 and it's awesome. I tested the forester but I hated the sluggish 2.5 engine. Turbocharged makes a difference. Also, the huge display on the outback is great for long trips along with an adaptor that literally mirror your phone, so my partner can watch stuff on it during long drives.

I have the 2023 Forester and I love it! I had a 2012 and traded it in. I have the Limited so extras like the moon roof, heated steering, dual climate control and great sound system are extra perks!

I wanted an 22 Outback limited, my wife fell in love with the 22 Forester Touring... ended up getting both. Showed her didn't I.

My wife is driving her 4th Forester and I like driving it for the higher seat and taller cargo capacity. I am driving my 5th Subaru. The first and fourth were Outbacks. The longer wheelbase made for a smoother ride on road trips and I could pack a lot of stuff in the cargo area. The second was a legacy sedan and the third was an Impreza hatchback. Last Sept I took delivery of a 2023 Crosstrek limited.

I picked up my first Subaru, a Forester Sport, back in December. I've driven an Outback and liked it, but I love the Forester. I wish it had wireless Android Auto though. I have the OP24 package with the 8" screen.

Love Forester, had 2006, 2018 and now 2022.

I love the 2023 forester I just wish it would have the wireless CarPlay

My wife is getting a 2023 Forester Sport this month and I’m getting an Outback Onyx in the summer and what it boiled down to each of us was the body size (boxed vs wagon) that attracted us each to those specific models.

I'm a 2024 Forester Ltd owner and love it!

my mum owns a subaru Forester and i just did my driving lesson with my mum and i can say driving it is very powerful and very good and smooth to drive since there is this sensor that warns me if there is anything behind so i can prevent accidents so definitely a recommended car

Just bought a 2023 Outback Wilderness...awesome! The turbo is totally rad!

[circlesthesun]

Purchased a 2024 Forester Wilderness. My retirement gift i bought. Smooth and quiet ride.

I love them both, but we chose the Forester. I was not crazy about the larger touch screen on the Outback and I felt like I was sitting so low to the ground when sitting in the driver’s seat. The Outback is really nice too though, especially in the white. Can’t go wrong with either one.

I have a Forester . Have been a Subie girl since 99!

I have the 2022 Forester and the main deciding factor was the in-dash CD player!!! 😂 I also liked that the seats are a little higher (easier for me to get in and out of the vehicle). While I like the integrated cross bars on the roof rack, I took a look back and realized I had only used the roof rack in my previous vehicle once in the 13 years I had the vehicle. Guessing my experience may be similar with this vehicle.

I tell every Subaru owner I know about your videos (there are five other Subaru owners on my block — and two friends have purchased Subarus since I bought mine last October!)!
