Subaru announces pricing on all-new 2025 Subaru Forester SUV

Subaru of America, Inc. announced pricing on the all-new 2025 Subaru Forester SUV arriving at Subaru retailers later this spring. The completely redesigned SUV features sleeker exterior styling, a quieter and updated interior, improved ride and handling, and enhanced safety. The sixth-generation Forester SUV starts at $29,695.

The 2025 Subaru Forester is available in Base, Premium, Sport, Limited, and Touring trim levels. All are equipped with Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and the latest generation of award-winning Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. The Forester’s standard 8.7 inches of ground clearance gives the SUV impressive capability, while an available 11.6-inch SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia system with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility offers creature comforts everywhere it goes.

Outside, the all-new design steers the 2025 Forester into a sleek, contemporary shape while retaining the SUV’s classic, rugged proportions. The front of the Forester wears a bold grille with compact LED headlights and Subaru’s new star cluster emblem. The Forester’s flared wheel arches emphasize strength and capability off-road. The new chassis for the 2025 Forester is based on the Subaru Global Platform and has been strengthened to deliver 10% stiffer torsional rigidity compared to the outgoing model.

Contoured dash elements and textured trim accents are designed to withstand the rigors of everyday life, while a dark headliner was strategically intended to hide scuffs and scratches from loading gear, people, and pets into the Forester’s spacious rear seats and cargo area. The interior is quieter and more comfortable now thanks to more sound-absorbing materials, more robust welding techniques, and additional structural adhesives, including a 39% reduction in the rate of noise attenuation from the roof panel.

Standard on every 2025 Forester, the latest version of EyeSight is designed to operate more smoothly and quickly and in a broader range of conditions. That is due in part to a wider field of view, updated control software, and the addition of an electric brake booster. EyeSight can identify cyclists and pedestrians at intersections sooner and, when necessary, alert the driver and apply braking to avoid collisions. Additional available safety features include Reverse Automatic Braking, Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.

For the first time on Forester, Emergency Stop Assist can stop the SUV if it detects an unresponsive driver when the Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is active. The system will stop the SUV, activate hazard lights, and unlock the doors. SUBARU STARLINK Connected Services can then call emergency services for help.

All 2025 Foresters have a Rear Seat Reminder that can alert drivers to check the rear seat for occupants or pets to prevent trapping them alone in the vehicle.

Automatic Emergency Steering is equipped on all models with Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Keep Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. The system can help drivers avoid collisions with objects within their lane of travel at speeds 50 mph or slower. An available Surround-View Monitor offers a bird’s-eye view of the vehicle and its surroundings to better maneuver the Forester into parking spaces.

The Forester Wilderness carries over from the 2024 model year, continuing in production alongside the all-new 2025 Forester.
