The 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid, a car that's about as thrilling as watching paint dry for the enthusiasts out there. But hold on, because for the average Joe, this unassuming crossover has a lot going for it. Priced around $36,500, this Forester Hybrid Touring model will set you back about $43,500, making it one of the pricier options in its segment. Under the hood, you'll find a 2.5 L hybrid four-cylinder engine churning out 194 horsepower, not exactly setting the road on fire but offering a respectable 35 mpg.
What sets the Forester apart are its unique design touches, like those squared-off wheel arches and a black roof that give it a distinctive appearance. Step inside, and you're greeted by a functional interior with a large center screen that integrates various controls. While the screen is responsive, it lacks the ability to display multiple functions simultaneously, a missed opportunity in a car of this caliber. The gauge cluster screen, while high-resolution, falls short in terms of customization, leaving drivers wanting more control over what they see.
But fear not, there are some interesting quirks to be found in this Subaru. From the switch between sport and intelligent modes on the steering wheel, each represented by a different power curve, to the rearview mirror that transforms into a camera screen for enhanced visibility, Subaru has added some thoughtful features. Unusual textures on the dashboard and door panels inject a bit of personality into an otherwise straightforward interior. The Forester Hybrid may not be the most thrilling ride out there, but it's clear that Subaru has put in the effort to make it a practical and unique choice in the crossover SUV market.
