I test drove several cars and a few trucks including the CRV, Rav4, Tacoma, and Escape. I loved the Forester Premium XT Turbo and ordered one in early January. I love the minor changes including the boxier front end. I have only been driving it for a few weeks but I am more than pleased. I wasn't looking for mind blowing mileage since I ordered the turbo, and am happy averaging 25 MPH with a mixture of city/highway driving. On a recent 400 mile trip I averaged 28 MPG. The comfort is very good and the visibility is outstanding. Subaru has vastly improved the quietness of this vehicle. The leg room is great, even in the backseat. My 5' 10" 250 pound frame fits this SUV very comfortably, and the vehicle is easy to get in & out of. I was never real technical and the backup camera, blue tooth phone capability (downloaded my entire phone list, works great) , and simple GPS system meet my standards. It has starlink (similar to onstar) and Siriusxm radio I am currently using, will evaluate and decide whether to keep them.

The Turbo makes the car. Its just a plain beast. The visibility of the car is superior. It is extremely quiet. The sunroof is huge. The fit and finish is excellent. Really no equal to Subaru's Symmetrical AWD. Handling is excellent. With conservative driving it yields 30+ mph on the highway and 26 in suburban driving. The infotainment system needs Carplay. V oice commands are not top notch. Just can't say enough about the vehicle. I love the CVT

We have owned 4 Subarus throughout the years and this is hands down the MOST FUN to drive! We just love our Forester XT. Going up to the mountains and driving up the passes have been so fun with the turbo. You do not have to sacrifice decent gas mileage to have the extra "guts" either. We used to have an Impreza which I felt was extremely under powered and rather "cheap" feeling inside, but the Forester definitely has the extra comfort features and better quality materials. I especially love the leather trim on the seats and the steering wheel. I really enjoy the over-sized sunroof in the summer time, too. If you want all of the fun of driving a WRX rally car but need an SUV that will fit the family's needs AND the dog, this is the car for you.

Only at 47000m, ac does not work( never worked well and already replaced condenser ), key stuck in ignition issues , manifold cracked, tie rods cracked etc. some covered under warranty. Bought this after accident so I'd have a vehicle I wouldn't have to worry about; major mistake!!
