CarGurus Analysis: 2020 Subaru Forester

Summary
With 172 currently listed for sale near Atlanta, GA and an average price of $20,332, 36.0% of 2020 Subaru Foresters for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2020 Subaru Forester 4.83 / 5 stars.
100.0% of 2020 Forester models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2020 Subaru Forester stands out as a compact SUV that emphasizes comfort, safety, and everyday usefulness. It rides on the Subaru Global Platform, which gave the fifth generation stiffer mechanical underpinnings and improved the Forester’s ride, stability, handling, and crash protection. Subaru also made safety a central part of the package: EyeSight was standard across the range, and it included adaptive cruise control, Pre-Collision Braking, lane departure and sway warning, and Lead Vehicle Start Alert. That combination helps explain why the Forester appeals to buyers who want a practical family vehicle with standard all-wheel drive and a strong reputation for confidence in poor weather.
The 2020 model uses an updated 2.5-liter boxer engine rated at 182 hp and 176 lb-ft, paired with a CVT and Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel drive system. Five trims were available at launch, and the lineup offered a useful spread of equipment, from a 6.5-inch screen on lower trims to an eight-inch touchscreen on higher trims, along with features such as a panoramic power moonroof, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and, on the Touring, ventilated leather seats, a heated steering wheel, a digital rear-view mirror, and a Harman Kardon sound system. Subaru also updated EyeSight for 2020 with lane centering and lane departure prevention systems. Buyers looking for a well-rounded used SUV will likely appreciate the Forester’s balance of refinement, visibility, and standard safety tech, though some owners have noted road noise and felt the interior space was a bit narrower than expected.

Is the 2020 Subaru Forester a good car?
Yes — the 2020 Subaru Forester earns a 4.83/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers consistently praise its safety features, smooth driving experience, and interior design, and many say it delivers strong value compared with rivals. That makes it a sensible fit if you want a practical compact SUV for everyday use, especially if you value confidence in poor weather and standard all-wheel drive. With 34.8% of listings marked as good or great deals, you still have room to shop selectively.
Is the 2020 Subaru Forester reliable?
Owners rate it 4.83/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
User feedback also points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with owners highlighting its reliability and confidence over the long term. That said, used buyers should still focus on maintenance history and overall condition, since even a well-liked SUV can carry age-related wear.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Subaru Forester?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 78.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should prioritize a clean history report and confirm that the listing matches the seller’s claims about prior damage or repairs. A thorough inspection should focus on overall condition, since road noise and interior wear can matter more in daily use than headline features. It also helps to compare multiple examples so you can judge how equipment, mileage, and condition affect value.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Subaru Forester?
This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right listing.
- Deal availability: 34.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 3,094 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.75% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 78.9% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $20,406, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Subaru Forester's resale value?
The current average of $21,242 sits slightly below last year's $22,068.
That softer pricing suggests the market has become a bit more buyer-friendly, which can help you enter ownership at a reasonable cost. For a future seller, the current trend implies you may not see rapid appreciation, but steady demand should still support a respectable exit price if you keep the vehicle in strong condition. The Forester’s broad appeal as a practical, safety-focused SUV helps it remain relevant in the used market.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.83/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Subaru Forester or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 34.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 78.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.75% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.83/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $18,965, the 2019 costs less than the current year's $21,242 average.
- It emphasizes practical all-weather capability and straightforward ownership.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $22,297, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $21,242 average.
- It adds useful standard safety equipment and keeps the Forester’s core strengths intact.
The bottom line: The 2020 is the best all-around choice if you want a strong mix of value, owner satisfaction, and available inventory. If your priority is saving money, the 2019 is the better price-first path, while the 2021 makes sense if you want a slightly newer model and are willing to pay more.
