CarGurus Analysis: 2024 Subaru Forester

Summary
With 272 currently listed for sale near Minneapolis, MN and an average price of $27,895, 26.5% 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 emphasizes practicality, all-weather confidence, and everyday usability. Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel drive is standard, and the Forester’s reputation for reliability, safety, and strong visibility remains central to its appeal. It also offers a spacious interior and a large cargo area, which makes it especially attractive to buyers who want a useful family vehicle rather than something flashy.
For 2024, the Forester’s appeal is rooted in its balanced setup. It uses a 2.5-liter boxer engine paired with a continuously variable transmission, and the available fuel economy is competitive at 26 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. Subaru also equips every model with EyeSight driver assist technology, while higher trims add features such as the 11.6-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and additional comfort and convenience upgrades. The cabin benefits from more premium materials, a redesigned dashboard, and increased insulation, all of which help the Forester feel quieter and more refined than its practical mission might suggest.
There are a few tradeoffs to keep in mind. The CVT can feel sluggish, and there is no turbocharged engine option in this generation. Even so, the 2024 Subaru Forester remains appealing because it combines standard AWD, useful space, and a strong safety focus in a package that is easy to live with.

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.

How much does the 2024 Subaru Forester cost?
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $29,288 |
| Year-Round Low | $29,288 |
| Year-Round High | $31,472 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $31,470 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −6.93% |
Prices have softened 6.93% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 5,233 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare before you buy.
Is the 2024 Subaru Forester a good car?
Yes — the 2024 Subaru Forester earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction.
The overview describes it as a compact SUV built around practicality, all-weather confidence, and everyday usability. Standard all-wheel drive, a spacious interior, and a large cargo area make it especially appealing if you want a useful family vehicle rather than something flashy. It also adds a refined cabin, strong visibility, and useful tech and safety features that support daily driving.
With 33.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a meaningful share of the market to shop from if you want value.
Is the 2024 Subaru Forester reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The overview emphasizes reliability as part of the Forester’s core appeal, alongside safety and everyday usability. Standard all-wheel drive and a practical, easy-to-live-with layout reinforce that reputation, while the cabin updates and added insulation help it feel more polished without changing its basic mission.
For used buyers, that combination suggests lower ownership anxiety than you might expect from a vehicle focused on utility, though you should still verify condition carefully because long-term wear can vary by individual example.
What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Forester?
Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.5% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
You should still run a vehicle history report to confirm the listing’s background and look for any prior damage or title issues. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the vehicle has higher mileage or incomplete service records. Focus your condition check on the cabin, cargo area, tires, brakes, and how smoothly the transmission and all-wheel-drive system feel in normal driving.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Forester?
This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you compare listings carefully.
- Deal availability: 33.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 5,233 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.93% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 91.5% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $29,288, 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 $29,288 sits slightly below last year's $31,470.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also limit short-term upside if you plan to resell soon. For a future seller, the key takeaway is that a lower entry price today can mean a softer resale ceiling later if market conditions stay similar. Even so, a well-kept Forester should remain appealing to shoppers who value practicality and all-weather capability.
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:
- 33.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.5% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.93% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2023 if:
- At $27,237, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $29,288 average.
- It keeps the same practical, safety-first focus with standard AWD and roomy utility.
Consider the 2025 if:
- At $31,607, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $29,288 average.
- It adds a quieter cabin and more advanced tech and safety offerings.
The bottom line: The 2024 is the best all-around choice if you want the current-year balance of price, satisfaction, and inventory depth. If your priority is saving money, the 2023 is the smarter secondary path; if you want newer equipment and can stretch your budget, the 2025 is the upgrade path to compare.
