Why it stands out

The 2018 Subaru Forester stands out as a practical compact SUV that emphasizes space, visibility, and all-weather confidence. It sits on a larger, more refined fourth-generation platform that brought more interior room, a taller passenger compartment for better outward visibility, and improved aerodynamics. Standard symmetrical all-wheel drive gives it the kind of traction Subaru buyers expect, and the Forester’s reputation for safety is reinforced by the fact that EyeSight became standard on all models by 2018.

What makes the 2018 model especially appealing is the way it balances everyday usability with a broad range of features. The lineup included a rear-view camera on all but the base model, while touchscreen infotainment, keyless access and start, and a power liftgate were available. The XT models added a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with 250 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, giving buyers a more powerful option than the standard 2.5-liter engine. The 2017 refresh also carried into this generation’s final years with revised styling, updated headlights, extra soundproofing, thicker glass, and a heated steering wheel on the Touring model, all of which helped make the Forester feel more polished.

There are a few trade-offs to keep in mind. The Forester was praised as capable, but not particularly exciting to drive, and the CVT can feel sluggish. Early 2014-2015 models with the 2.5-liter engine were affected by oil consumption issues, and the CVT requires regular maintenance to ensure longevity. Even so, the 2018 Subaru Forester remains distinctive for buyers who want a roomy, safety-focused SUV with standard AWD and a strong reputation for practicality.
