Subaru Forester AWD Touring Petrol Driving Video

Clad in a sharper design that reflects its sporty yet robust character, the sixth-generation Forester stretches to 4.67 meters in length. Occupants enjoy plenty of space in the front and rear with a 2.67-meter wheelbase. There are also many features that make both short and long journeys particularly comfortable. Dual-zone automatic climate control and heated front seats are standard, as are a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, a multi-information display, a rearview camera, and an audio system with an 11.6-inch touchscreen, DAB+ digital radio, USB ports, six speakers, and smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A Qi charging cradle charges your smartphone wirelessly. Safety is ensured by the enhanced Eyesight system, which combines various assistance systems such as emergency braking, active lane keeping and lane control, stop-and-go assist, and multinational traffic sign recognition. A driver detection system that warns of drowsiness and distraction, as well as radar-based lane change, blind spot, and rear cross-traffic assist are also on board. The Subaru model is powered by a 100 kW/136 hp 2.0-liter boxer gasoline engine, assisted by a small electric motor. The standard e-Boxer mild hybrid system improves responsiveness and fuel efficiency. Power is transferred to all four wheels by the continuously variable Lineartronic automatic transmission.
