Features
An Evolution in Sophisticated SUV Styling
The 2026 Forester mixes rugged SUV practicality with modern elements like a bold grille, striking headlight styling, geometric trim accents, and muscular design contours that draw the eye from every angle.
A New Style of Wilderness Adventure
The new 2026 Forester Wilderness has a daring new look to match your boldest adventures. With a completely redesigned exterior, new connected technology, and ground clearance increased to 9.3 inches for 2026, the Forester Wilderness delivers even more off-road capability and rugged style.
Available Panoramic Moonroof
The Forester features an available panoramic moonroof to add even more light and atmosphere to the spacious interior.
Standard Roof Rails
Get even more cargo-carrying flexibility with standard raised roof rails. Plus, Forester Sport and Forester Touring models feature low-profile roof rails for sleeker style and improved aerodynamics. With either design, it’s easy to bring along equipment like surfboards, bikes, and canoes.
Generous Cargo Room
Every Forester SUV features a comfortable and spacious interior with impressive visibility. An extra-wide rear gate opening and available foot-activated power rear gate makes it easy to load gear, and with 74.4 cubic feet of cargo space, you have plenty of space for every adventure.
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
The standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system in the 2026 Forester is designed to optimize traction in rain, dirt, and on bad roads. It constantly evaluates acceleration, braking, and cornering in real time to continuously deliver power to all four wheels. If a wheel slips, power is instantaneously transferred to the wheels that have the most grip.
Enhanced Wilderness Drivetrain
The Forester Wilderness drivetrain features gearing with revised ratios for improved low-speed climbing — up to a 40 percent grade. You can bring along even more gear and adventure equipment with an upgraded towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.
Enhanced Dual-Function X-Mode
Dual-function X-MODE has settings for dirt and deep mud that allow additional wheel slip to power through adverse conditions, taking the legendary sure-footedness of the Forester Wilderness even farther into the back country.
Long-Lasting Quality
The Forester will be with you on all the journeys ahead — 96% of Forester vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today4. Its long-lasting quality is one reason why the Forester has won the lowest 5-year Cost to Own in it’s class for four years running, according to Kelly Blue Book’s KBB.com.5
SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia with 11.6-Inch Touchscreen
For intuitive control of your apps, navigation, and entertainment, the SUBARU STARLINK Multimedia system in the 2025 Forester features a newly available 11.6-inch high-resolution touchscreen. Wireless device charging is also now available to make it even easier to stay charged up without the need for cables.
Available Hands-Free Power Rear Gate
The 2026 Forester makes it easier to load your gear with an available foot-activated, hands-free Power Rear Gate to allow cargo access even if your hands are full. The gate itself features an extra-wide opening to accommodate oversized items, and with up to 74.4 cubic feet of cargo space, you can fit plenty of equipment for your next adventure.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Integration
Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration makes it even easier to enjoy your music and podcasts. Seamlessly connect to your mobile device and utilize Wireless Bluetooth® pairing and hands-free smartphone operation for safe and easy connection to your favorite apps and content on command.
Upgraded EyeSight Driver Assist Technology6
Every 2026 Forester AWD compact SUV features standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, which acts like an extra set of eyes on the road and if need be, an extra foot on the brake6. Automatic Emergency Steering is available to help you avoid collisions by providing automatic steering and pre-collision braking support if it determines there’s enough space to intervene7.
Automatic Pre-Collision Braking8
Automatic Pre-Collision Braking8 helps you avoid or reduce frontal impacts by alerting you and applying full braking force in emergency situations. Pre-Collision Throttle Management can reduce the power from the engine to help minimize the possible impact force and frontal impact damage.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering9 adds extra convenience and safety on every drive. Just choose the distance you want to keep from the car in front of you and it can take some of the stress out of everyday driving by helping with steering, braking, and throttle control while maintaining a safe distance ahead.
