Hi W. in Matraville, NSW reviewed on 17th June 2023
8 / 10So far I'm still into my 1st year of ownership and as far as comfort and safety are concerned I'm very happy but my only negative feedback would be the frugality. I've owned Mazda6 and Honda crv and mazda3 in the last 5years and this Subaru's forester I'd the thirstiest..! It takes 63litres and im getting about 700kms which is about 300kms less than the mazdas and about 400kms less than Honda crv.

10 / 10Iām so impressed with my Subaru Forester as it has all the features of my previous vehicle, Audi A4! The drivers seating in the Subaru is so ideal for me due to my back issues in so far my back issues are gone! My Uber clients are so impressed with this 2022 model with the spacious interior cabin space, that you do not feel crowded at anytime! Overall I give this vehicle 10/10!

10 / 10I've found my Subaru Forester to be a very capable and safe vehicle. Comfortable and surprisingly powerful.

6 / 10The 2020 Subaru Forester has some very annoying features such as unable to permanently disable the engine being shut off when stopped. You have to do it every time you start the car if you want to avoid the rough restart after stopping. The radio doesn't have a separate off, so even if you turn if off while driving, next time you start the car its on again. You can of course turn the volume down and turn if back up if you want it on. Steering is too sensitive, so the car has trouble holding a line. A little bounce in the road seems to be interpreted as a "turn" on the wheel. It beeps too much if cars are too near and can apply the brakes when navigating tight parking areas. It also applies the brakes if your trying to merge on a round about or entering the freeway and decides your too close. It doesn't allow for the speed of the car you coming in behind. The adaptive cruise control causes the car to accelerate when you enter a turning lane if you've been travelling slower than the set speed, ie in heavy traffic.

10 / 10After owning up to 43 different and varied vehicles throughout my life, it was with much deliberation that we finally settled on the new SK 2021 Subaru Forester Premium. To wait 3 months for a new vehicle was certainly something very new to us, however, we can say the wait was truly worth it. At first, the technology built into the vehicle was a little overpowering but having now lived with and used it, the systems are absolutely fantastic. Here is a vehicle which continues to surprise with it's superb handling and ride. I had some concern, after reading online reviews, about a lack of power and urge. I can say, the Forester with its 2.5 litre normally aspirated engine has more than adequate power and response, particularly for highway use. Here is a vehicle which brings a smile to your face, every time you drive it. The engineering of the Forester is very evident no matter where you look. Good work Subaru and I hope that the Forester continues to give me more than "Oh What A Feeling" for many years to come. Cheers Ashley and Margie

8 / 10I have really enjoyed our first year of ownership of the S5 Subaru Forester Premium. It is comfortable, economical and easy to drive, although the safety tech does require a bit of getting used to.
