* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.

• Reliability (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  Subaru generally has a strong reputation for reliability, and the hybrid system is expected to build on that. While a new model year, the core components are proven. Early indicators suggest good build quality.
• Maintenance (3)
  3 out of 5 stars
  Maintenance costs are expected to be average for the segment. Hybrid components might lead to slightly higher specialized service costs down the line, but routine maintenance should be comparable to other Subarus. Fuel efficiency will offset some of these costs.
• Technology (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  Subaru's updated infotainment system is intuitive and responsive, featuring a large touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The EyeSight driver-assist suite is comprehensive and works seamlessly, enhancing safety and convenience.
• Comfort (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  The interior is spacious and well-appointed, especially in the Limited trim. Seats are supportive for long journeys, and the cabin remains relatively quiet at highway speeds. Rear passenger room is excellent for its class.
• Dynamics (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  The 2025 Forester Limited Hybrid offers a smooth and controlled ride, with the hybrid powertrain providing a noticeable boost in low-end torque for city driving. While not a performance SUV, it handles winding roads with confidence and predictable steering.
