About the Subaru Forester

The Subaru Forester is a practical and capable mid-size SUV built around Subaru's legendary Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system — offering genuine all-weather and light off-road capability as standard on every single model sold in South Africa. It is the SUV that takes bad weather and gravel roads more seriously than any rival. With a naturally aspirated boxer engine and standard AWD, the Forester offers a unique combination of reliability, practicality, and all-condition confidence.

Who is the Forester best for?

  • Families who need genuine all-wheel drive capability in a practical mid-size SUV
  • Those who regularly drive on gravel, wet roads, or challenging terrain and need reliable AWD
  • Buyers cross-shopping the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V who want standard all-wheel drive
  • Those who want Subaru boxer engine reliability and AWD in a spacious and practical family SUV
