The 2017 Subaru Forester, part of the SUV's fourth-generation lineup, is renowned for its symmetrical all-wheel drive, impressive fuel economy, and robust safety features. It offers two engine options: a 2.5L four-cylinder Boxer engine producing 170 horsepower, and a 2.0L turbocharged Boxer engine capable of 250 horsepower. Both engines are mated to a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). The model was available in six trims—2.5i, 2.5i Premium, 2.5i Limited, 2.5i Touring, 2.0XT Premium, and 2.0XT Touring. It includes a 6.2 or 7-inch Starlink infotainment system with Bluetooth, iPod control, and smartphone integration. Safety highlights encompass Subaru’s EyeSight Driver Assist Technology providing key features like adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, lane departure, and sway warning. Furthermore, the 2017 revision brought a refreshed front fascia, active torque vectoring for turbocharged models, and noise reduction measures.
