The updates to the powertrain are minor, with all models retaining the 2.5-liter four-cylinder Boxer engine from the previous Forester generation. The engine now produces slightly lower performance figures at 180 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque, but the impact on driving is negligible and comes with improved fuel efficiency. All models are equipped with Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a Lineartronic CVT, and SI-Drive.
Safety
The 2025 Subaru Forester emphasizes safety in every model, boasting standard features like adaptive cruise control, forward collision mitigation, and lane departure with keeping assistance. It also presents enhanced options such as a driver monitoring system, rear cross-traffic detection, blind-spot alert, and evasive steering assistance.

Long-Lasting Quality
The 2025 Subaru Forester has been updated with a modern, yet still boxy exterior that enhances its iconic look. The wheelbase is unchanged, but the total length is slightly increased by 0.6 inches to nearly 15.3 feet. The ground clearance remains at 8.7 inches. Standard features now include LED lighting and aluminum wheels, with wheel sizes varying between 17 to 19 inches. Roof rails come standard except on the base trim, and a new foot-activated hands-free power liftgate is available as an option.
