How much does the 2022 Subaru Forester cost?

Prices have softened 8.30% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,033 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of options to compare.

Is the 2022 Subaru Forester a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Subaru Forester earns a 4.62/5 user rating and an 8/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Form and function, Cost effectiveness, and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its comfortable ride, safety features, spacious interior, AWD capabilities, and useful technology. The trade-offs are familiar: some shoppers may not love the outdated styling, limited storage space, or the desire for more power. That makes it a strong fit if you want a practical, all-weather SUV that prioritizes usefulness over flash.

With 33.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitively priced example.

Is the 2022 Subaru Forester reliable?

Owners rate it 4.62/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a vehicle that owners trust for everyday use, with repeated praise for its dependable feel, comfortable ownership experience, and all-around practicality. The expert evaluation also emphasizes durability and the Forester’s knack for holding its value over time. Subaru’s cost-effectiveness notes reinforce that this is a simple, easy-to-drive SUV built for long-term usefulness.

For used buyers, the main ownership risk is less about the concept and more about condition, so a careful inspection and history check matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Subaru Forester?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check each listing carefully, because accident-free status does not guarantee perfect maintenance or wear. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, confirm service records when possible, and pay close attention to tire condition, suspension feel, and any signs of off-road use if you’re considering a Wilderness model.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base model starts with standard all-wheel drive and a 6.5-inch touchscreen, while higher trims add more convenience and tech. The Wilderness stands out with extra clearance, protective cladding, and a more rugged interior, but its styling is more polarizing than the rest of the lineup.
• Powertrain: You get a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with a CVT and all-wheel drive. The setup is efficient and capable for daily driving, but it is not especially quick, and the Wilderness adds a more off-road-focused calibration plus a 3,000-pound towing capacity.
• Safety package: EyeSight 4.0 is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, and Automatic Emergency Steering. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear automatic braking are also part of the safety story, while Touring adds DriverFocus.
• Infotainment: Base trims use a 6.5-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, satellite radio, HD Radio, and Starlink connected services. Wilderness, Limited, and Touring get an 8-inch screen, plus navigation and a Harman Kardon premium sound system; Premium adds a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot.
• Fuel efficiency: The Wilderness is rated at 26 mpg in combined driving, and the test vehicle averaged 25.9 mpg.

Which 2022 Subaru Forester trim should I buy?

The 2022 Subaru Forester is offered in 6 trim levels: base, Premium, Sport, Wilderness, Limited, and Touring.

Here's the short version:

• base: This is the simplest way into the Forester, and it already gives you standard all-wheel drive, a 6.5-inch touchscreen, and the core safety and utility that define the model. If you want the lowest-cost entry point and do not need extra comfort features, this is the trim to start with.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds useful everyday upgrades without pushing the price into the upper end of the lineup. It also brings a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, which makes it a smart pick if you want more convenience and connectivity.
• Sport: This trim is for you if you want a little more style and a more distinctive middle-ground setup without jumping to the specialty models. It sits above Premium and below the more expensive trims, so it can make sense if you want a nicer-feeling Forester without going all the way upmarket.
• Wilderness: This is the trim to choose if you care most about rough-road ability and outdoor use. It adds extra ground clearance, all-terrain tires, a skid plate, a full-size spare, and a 180-degree forward-view camera, making it the clear pick for buyers who plan to venture off pavement.
• Limited: This trim is a good fit if you want the larger 8-inch screen and the upgraded audio/navigation setup without going all the way to Touring. It gives you a more polished feel while staying focused on the Forester’s practical strengths.
• Touring: This is the most fully equipped Forester, and it adds DriverFocus along with the upper-end convenience and tech features. Choose it if you want the most complete version of the model and are willing to pay for it.

Touring trim also adds DriverFocus, which is the standout safety-related upgrade in the lineup.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Subaru Forester?

The market looks moderate and selective, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay patient.

• Deal availability: 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,033 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.30% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 86.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,690, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Subaru Forester's resale value?

The current average of $24,690 sits slightly below last year's $26,924.

That price movement suggests the Forester has become more approachable for used buyers, which can help you buy at a better entry point today. For a future seller, the softer market means you may not see the same near-term appreciation, but the model’s practical reputation still supports steady demand. Strong utility, standard all-wheel drive, and broad buyer appeal should help it remain easy to move when it is time to sell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.62/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Subaru Forester safe?

The 2022 Subaru Forester earns a five-star overall crash-test rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in all evaluations except rollover resistance, where it gets a four-star assessment.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

EyeSight 4.0 is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, and Automatic Emergency Steering. The Forester also includes a rear-seat reminder system, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear automatic braking. Touring trim adds DriverFocus, which monitors for drowsiness and distraction.

The main caveat is that the Wilderness may require re-testing because of its modified height.

Should I buy a 2022 Subaru Forester or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.30% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.62/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Subaru updated it with fresh design details, upgraded EyeSight safety tech, and improved utility features.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $22,352, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $24,690 average.
• It is mostly unchanged and keeps the focus on core strengths.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $27,237, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $24,690 average.
• It adds next-generation EyeSight safety features and an improved standard infotainment system.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, safety, and updated features, the 2022 is the strongest all-around choice. If your budget is tighter, the 2021 gives you a lower entry price with much of the same basic appeal. If you want the newest refinement and do not mind paying more, the 2023 is the better upgrade path.
