6 Reviews for 2012 Subaru Forester

on

There’s a power in finding the perfect balance. And the brand new 2012 Subaru Forester offers the combination of appealing design, refined handling and astounding versatility that’ll empower you for all the adventures you encounter every day. The Subaru Forester is a crossover vehicle that blends many of the best attributes of a sport-utility vehicle with the ride and driving dynamics of a car. For 2012, the Subaru Forester now comes with a standard height-adjustable passenger seat and a new optional navigation system with added functionality.

The 2012 Subaru Forester has one of the most comfortable rides in the segment. Its crisp steering and tight turning circle also make it surprisingly maneuverable in close quarters. Both engine choices are highly competitive in terms of power and fuel economy, although an automatic transmission with more gears than the Forester’s four would make a big difference.

Interior Features
Settle into the driver’s seat, and you’ll find yourself in a spacious cabin, surrounded by amenities designed for you and your passengers’ convenience and comfort. Those in the rear are sure to appreciate the reclining rear seats1, your front passenger will like having a height-adjustable seat, and everyone will enjoy the sunshine and fresh air flowing in from the optional oversized panoramic moonroof. Add in available dual-zone climate control, and your only problem may be getting your passengers to leave.

Passenger Protection
Our body structure design, with the Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame, is engineered to be exceptionally strong for maximum resistance to impact energy, while an array of airbagsā‚¬”all standardā‚¬”further help prevent injury.

Rewarding Technology
Available features like dual-zone climate control help keep you comfortable, while iPod control, HD RadioTM with iTunes tagging, satellite radio and Bluetooth hands-free connectivity keep you connected and entertained.

Here are 6 excellent reviews for 2012 Subaru Forester:

1. Edmunds
… a no-nonsense mini-SUV for those who need the versatility of a small wagon with the grip of all-wheel drive.

2. Canadian Driver
According to the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) front crash tests, the Forester was the only SUV in its class to be rated ‘Good’.

3. New Car Test Drive
Subaru makes one of the best all-wheel-drive systems in the world, rivaled only by Porsche and Audi.

4. Cars.com
The Subaru Forester, a successful small SUV/wagon, competes against other car-based compact SUVs including the Ford Escape and Honda CR-V. It seats five people and has standard all-wheel drive.

5. The Car Connection
The 2012 Subaru Forester is tough, all-weather-capable, and one of the best-handling compact crossovers–plus, a blast to drive in XT turbo form–but an old-tech automatic transmission and econo-caliber interior remain letdowns.

6. KBB.com
“Best of all, the Forester is reasonably priced, holds it value well, and is an IIHS Top Safety Pick.”
