The Forester is the RAV4 of the countryside. A family SUV designed for long journeys, but comfortable on many other terrains. Since the first generation launched in 1997, it has been equipped with all-wheel drive as standard and displays the 4×4 codes of increased ground clearance and large plastic protections. He has certainly swapped the adventurer station wagon silhouette of his beginnings for a more conventional line, but his philosophy has not changed. Another specificity specific to Subaru: the famous boxer engines (flat cylinders), in this case a 2-liter e-Boxer “mild hybrid” with 136 hp, or 14 horsepower less than the previous opus. The first thing we can rejoice about is that Subaru has “tranquilized” the design of its best-seller. The silhouette is more homogeneous, the features smoother, and it presents fewer indigestible details than before. Ultimately, it looks more American than Japanese.
