Drive the 2011 Subaru Forester and you’ll find this true SUV is truly the perfect lifestyle accessory. Its compact size, standard Subaru symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive and revised suspension provide exceptional maneuverability, nimble handling and superior comfort with all-weather/all-road capabilities. And Forester becomes even more responsive around town with the SUBARU BOXER engine: a turbocharged 2.5-litre 4-cylinder DOHC. This engine has been refined for greater torque, reduced emissions and heightened fuel economy.

The Forester’s front and rear suspension have been refined to inspire even greater handling and driver confidence. The rear bushings and shock absorbers have been fine-tuned and optimized to minimize harshness and contribute to more precise steering for greater control and improved comfort. Driver feedback is also crisper, while the vehicle has a more solid, planted feel. Combined with a long stroke, wide track and impressive 220 mm ground clearance (225 mm on 2.5XT Limited), the Forester delivers a unique combination of rugged capability and refined handling that sets new standards for this class of vehicle.

When combined with its stylish exterior and award-winning safety ratings, the 2011 Forester is the right choice for the road ahead. Plus it’s available with plenty of advanced convenience features for technophiles and audiophiles alike, including available Bluetooth connectivity, a MediaHub for iPod/USB audio integration and a new Pioneer navigation/audio system with premium speaker system. Such an ideal balance of performance, versatility and outright fun for roads often taken, and the ones less travelled.
