CarGurus Analysis: 2024 Subaru Forester

Summary
With 129 currently listed for sale near El Paso, TX and an average price of $30,239.00, 47.3% of 2024 Subaru Foresters for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2024 Subaru Forester 5 / 5 stars.
100.0% of 2024 Forester models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2024 Subaru Forester stands out as a compact SUV that leans hard into practicality, visibility, and all-weather confidence. Subaru’s standard symmetrical all-wheel drive is one of its defining traits, and the Forester’s reputation for reliability, safety, and long-term value remains a major part of its appeal. It also offers a spacious interior and a large cargo area, which makes it especially attractive to buyers who want an easy-to-live-with family vehicle or a capable everyday SUV.
For 2024, the Forester’s appeal is rooted in its balanced, no-nonsense setup. The CVT can feel sluggish, and there is no turbocharged engine option in this generation, so it is not the choice for shoppers seeking strong performance. Even so, the Forester’s strengths are clear: excellent visibility, standard AWD, and a cabin designed around usefulness rather than flash. That combination is what makes it distinctive among used compact SUVs.

Reviewed a 2024 Subaru Premium Crossover AWD on Feb 22, 2024
Love the visibility in the Forester, the safety features and the comfortable, quiet ride. Also, the resale value forced us to buy new as the new prices were not that much higher than late model used.

If you find a listing below $29,307.61, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
Is the 2024 Subaru Forester a good car?
Yes — the 2024 Subaru Forester earns a 5/5 user rating, which supports its appeal as a practical compact SUV. The overview points to a model built around visibility, standard all-wheel drive, a spacious interior, and a large cargo area, so it fits well if you want an easy-to-live-with family vehicle or a capable everyday SUV. Its balanced, no-nonsense setup is especially appealing if you value usefulness over flash, even if performance is not the main draw. 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2024 Subaru Forester reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The overview emphasizes Subaru’s reputation for reliability, safety, and long-term value, along with standard symmetrical all-wheel drive as a core strength. That combination makes the Forester feel like a sensible ownership choice if you want a vehicle built for everyday dependability and all-weather confidence. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about complexity and more about making sure the specific example you choose has been maintained well.
What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Forester?
Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.6% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
You should still run a history report on any candidate and confirm the vehicle’s background before you commit. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you plan to keep the car for the long haul, and pay close attention to overall condition rather than assuming every clean listing is equally well cared for. Focus on signs of wear that could affect daily usability, since this model’s value is tied heavily to practicality and dependable ownership.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Forester?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 5,297 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.07% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 91.6% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $29,307.61, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2024 Subaru Forester's resale value?
The current average of $29,305 sits slightly below last year's $31,535.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy more selectively now but may also temper near-term resale upside if you plan to sell soon. For a future seller, the good news is that the Forester’s practical reputation and broad appeal can help support demand when it’s time to list. The challenge is that today’s softer pricing means your resale outcome will depend heavily on mileage, condition, and how well your vehicle stands out against similar listings.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2024 Subaru Forester or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2024 if:
- 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.6% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.07% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2023 if:
- At $27,266, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $29,305 average.
- It adds useful safety and infotainment updates.
Consider the 2025 if:
- At $31,592, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $29,305 average.
- It brings a quieter cabin and more advanced tech.
The bottom line: The 2024 is the best fit if you want a well-liked, practical Forester with strong market support and plenty of listings to compare. If you’re more price-sensitive, the 2023 is the smarter value play, while the 2025 makes sense if you want the newer refinements and are willing to pay more for them.
