I have owned a lot of different cars in my lifetime but never a Subaru. I always had the impression that the Subaru was a good reliable automobile but made for people looking for cars good on the snow or off road. Boy, was I wrong. My interest on the Subaru Forester first peaked when I read a review on Consumer Reports. I was surprised to read that they rated it the highest compact SUV for 2025. They had very different impression of the car than Edmunds. My wife and I are retired and we owned a 2017 Acura RDX with the advantage package. This was our family or trip car. We liked the Acura RDX a lot but it was 8 years old and the milage was approaching 100,000 miles. We decide to start looking for another compact SUV and also wanted a hybrid with all wheel drive. We looked at several highly rated compact SUV hybrids and feel in love with the Subaru Forester Hybrid Touring edition. We like everything about the car. It's comfortable, drives great and is quiet. It has all the safety features and technology we wanted and more. We love the all wheel drive even though we live in Florida. The car has plenty of power and handles well. We like the gas milage we are getting which is about 35 MPG and that we can use regular grade gas. I can keep on going telling you the things we like but what's more important, so far, is we can't tell you anything we don't like...because there isn't any.
