Used 2022 Subaru Forester Consumer Reviews
Forester Wilderness
Took advantage of the high trade values and traded a 2019 Outback for 2022 Forester Wilderness. Was difficult to choose between the Outback and Forester but utimately bought the Forester Wilderness. Why? Well the seating position is typical of an SUV so you definitely sit higher than in an Outback which is more carlike. Much more headroom for us folks over 6 foot tall and a larger, although slightly shorter, cargo area. And finally, I definitely prefer old school buttons and knobs to the touchscreen in the Outback. Opted for the navigation, upgraded audio, and power rear gate. Definitely worth it in my opinion. Entering and exiting the Wilderness is much easier than my previous Outback. The ride is very smooth and nearly as refined as in the 2019 Outback. I'm not a spirited driver around curves but the Forester Wilderness handles well. The 2.5 engine is fine around town and gets the job done on the highway. Is it fast? No, but I did not buy it to race anyone. Can I merge into traffic without feeling like I'll get rear ended? Yes, it gets the job done and the Wilderness specific CVT gearing is definitely welcome and apparent. Another plus are the Geolander AT tires. Look great and excellent on wet and snowy roads. Hopefully will never need it, but the Wilderness comes with a full size spare and matching OEM rim. Nice and nearly unheard of today! The upholstery is very nice and seems durable. Standard all weather floor mats are another plus. As for the exterior styling, obviously I like it and it is a more subdued than the OB Wilderness due to omitting the copper accents on the bumpers. Overall, we are really enjoying our Forester Wilderness and would highly recommend this trim level if you like the look and want enhanced capability off road or in snowy conditions. Good job Subaru!

Great 2022 Subaru Touring
The vehicle seems to have better pickup and seems my roomy than our previous 2019. Excellent vehicle and easy to get into it wide door openings. Economic gas mileage.

Unstoppable
Traded in a 2013 Subaru outback and picked up a 2022 Forrester limited it’s got all the features that I need and want love the way the seats feel the seat height is great it feels like I can just open the door and just slide into the drivers seat car handles very quick and is User-friendly I don’t have a problem with the acceleration great gas mileage very solid riding car the car is built over in Japan so I think that helps with the build quality and I also have the new jade green color.
