2021 Subaru Forester: A Comprehensive Overview

The 2021 Subaru Forester continues its legacy as a highly practical and capable compact SUV, prioritizing all-wheel-drive capability, safety, and versatility for a wide range of lifestyles. Building on Subaru's renowned engineering, the Forester offers a comfortable ride, ample cargo space, and a suite of advanced safety technologies, making it a compelling choice for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a dependable daily driver.

Highlights

The 2021 Subaru Forester boasts several key strengths that contribute to its enduring appeal:

  • Engine: All 2021 Forester models are powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder Boxer engine producing 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that simulates gear shifts for a smoother and more efficient driving experience. While not the most powerful in its class, it provides adequate acceleration for daily driving and confident merging onto highways.
  • Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive: As a standard feature across all trims, Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system is a significant highlight. It continuously monitors road conditions and distributes power to the wheels with the most traction, offering enhanced stability and confidence in various weather conditions, from rain and snow to light off-road excursions.
  • Safety Features: Subaru is synonymous with safety, and the 2021 Forester is no exception. Key standard safety features include:
    • Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist Technology: This suite of advanced safety features includes Adaptive Cruise Control (maintains a set speed and following distance from the vehicle ahead), Lane Keep Assist (gently guides the vehicle back into its lane if it drifts unintentionally), Pre-Collision Braking (audibly and visually warns the driver of an impending frontal collision and can automatically apply the brakes), and Pre-Collision Throttle Management (reduces engine power if a frontal collision is detected).
    • Automatic High Beams: These headlights automatically switch between high and low beams based on the detection of oncoming traffic, improving nighttime visibility without dazzling other drivers.
    • Rear-Seat Reminder: This feature is designed to help prevent accidental child or pet entrapment by reminding the driver to check the rear seat before exiting the vehicle.
    • Optional safety features like Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert are available on higher trims, further enhancing awareness of surrounding traffic.
  • Trim Summary: The 2021 Forester is offered in several well-equipped trims, each building upon the previous one:
    • Forester Base: Provides the essential Forester experience with standard AWD and EyeSight.
    • Forester Premium: Adds features like a 10-way power driver's seat, heated front seats, and a panoramic power moonroof.
    • Forester Sport: Distinguishes itself with unique exterior and interior styling cues, roof rails with tie-down points, and a sport-tuned suspension for a slightly more engaging driving feel.
    • Forester Limited: Introduces premium amenities such as leather-trimmed upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a larger infotainment touchscreen.
    • Forester Touring: The top-tier trim, offering the most luxurious experience with features like a heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, and advanced safety and convenience technologies.
  • Cargo Space and Versatility: The Forester offers a generous 69.1 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded down, one of the largest in its segment. The wide rear liftgate opening and low load height make it easy to load and unload bulky items, further enhancing its practicality for carrying gear, groceries, or luggage.
  • Ground Clearance: With 8.7 inches of ground clearance, the Forester provides excellent capability for navigating rough terrain, uneven roads, and snowy conditions without scraping the undercarriage.

What to Expect

Owning a 2021 Subaru Forester typically translates to a straightforward and reliable ownership experience. Subaru vehicles are generally known for their durability and longevity.

  • Maintenance: Routine maintenance will likely involve oil changes, tire rotations, and filter replacements at recommended intervals. Subaru's Boxer engine design can sometimes make certain service tasks slightly more involved, but many owners find that independent mechanics are well-versed in Subaru maintenance. The availability of parts is generally good, and Subaru dealerships offer dedicated service departments.
  • Insurance: Insurance costs for the 2021 Forester are typically competitive. Factors such as your driving record, location, chosen coverage levels, and the specific trim of the Forester you select will influence your premium. The Forester's strong safety ratings and the inclusion of advanced driver-assist features may contribute to more favorable insurance rates.
  • Driving Experience: On the road, the Forester provides a comfortable and composed ride. The suspension effectively absorbs bumps and imperfections, making it well-suited for daily commutes and longer journeys. The cabin is generally quiet, although some road noise can be present at higher speeds. Visibility from the driver's seat is excellent, thanks to the large windows and upright driving position.

Potential Considerations

While the 2021 Subaru Forester excels in many areas, potential buyers should be aware of a few aspects:

  • Engine Power: As mentioned earlier, the 182 horsepower from the 2.5-liter engine is adequate but not particularly invigorating. Drivers who prioritize brisk acceleration or frequently tow heavier loads might find the Forester's powertrain to be a bit underpowered.
  • CVT Behavior: While Subaru's CVT is generally smooth, some drivers may find its simulated gear shifts to be less engaging than a traditional automatic transmission. In certain driving situations, the engine can also sound a bit strained when under heavy acceleration.
  • Infotainment System Responsiveness: While functional, the infotainment system in some 2021 Forester models, particularly the smaller touchscreen in lower trims, can sometimes exhibit slightly slower response times compared to some competitors. The larger touchscreen on higher trims generally improves this.
  • Interior Materials: While the Forester's interior is functional and well-assembled, some of the interior materials, particularly on lower trims, might not feel as premium or soft to the touch as those found in some rival SUVs in the segment.

Overall Summary

The 2021 Subaru Forester remains a highly recommendable compact SUV for those who value practicality, safety, and all-weather capability. Its standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, comprehensive suite of EyeSight driver-assist features, and spacious, versatile interior make it a well-rounded and dependable choice for a wide array of drivers and their needs. While its powertrain might not satisfy the need for outright speed, its overall package of comfort, safety, and usability solidifies its position as a segment standout.
