Despite its off-roading capabilities and spacious interior, the Subaru Forester faces some limitations including outdated technology, lackluster handling, and a dreary powertrain. The Forester Wilderness is designed for those seeking increased capability, particularly for those living in rugged areas such as the Pacific Northwest and Colorado. The lack of updates for the 2024 model year does not necessarily detract from its overall appeal, as we wait for the 2025 improvements. Furthermore, the Forester’s interior is designed with functionality, visibility, and simple controls in mind. The vehicle’s dimensions remain comparable to its rivals, with the boxy side windows offering exceptional visibility and generous space for both passengers and cargo. While the Forester’s handling may not impress on the road, it excels off-road, particularly with the Wilderness trim. Consequently, the 2024 Forester may fall short in several areas compared to competitors in its class, but the upcoming 2025 Subaru Forester will present marked improvements.
