Ambitious Performance and Versatility
The Forester features a special Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system that creates stability and extra traction when it is needed. Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system improves handling and response to changing road conditions, whether you drive in Clifton, CO or elsewhere. The Forester still has its long-lasting Subaru Boxer engine with standard Lineartronic CVT. This system is efficient and allows the Forester to manage up to 33 MPG highway, which is excellent for an SUV with this much power. It also includes an 8-inch touchscreen that keeps everything within easy reach.
One of the reasons why Fruita drivers love the Forester is that it has 8.7-inches of ground clearance, which allows it to overcome small obstacles with ease. It also has Hill Descent Control that adjusts the throttle and applies the brakes when going down an incline to help you maintain speed. The dual-function X-MODE is ready for any weather with mud, dirt and snow settings. If you need to tow something, the Forester has a towing capacity of up to 1,500 pounds.
Infotainment Technology Keeps You Connected
This year's Subaru Forester model has plenty of technology, too. The Forester features Subaru Starlink Multimedia that includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and hand-free smartphone operation. You can access the voice-activated navigation system and listen to your favorite podcasts without taking your hands off the wheel. The new model also has an available Wi-Fi hotspot that will allow up to eight devices to be connected at once. There are also two USB ports available in the front and two in the back.
Safety Features
When it comes to safety, the new Forester included a strong foundation and technology to act as an extra pair of eyes. The standard EyeSight technology keeps an eye out on the road in front and will brake automatically if the vehicle senses that a collision is imminent. This is combined with Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control that will help with braking and throttle control to keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. It also has automatic Lane Centering that will help avoid drifting.
The new DriverFocus distraction mitigation system will help keep your attention on the road. It is an excellent option for both experienced and new drivers. You also get Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. High-beam assist will detect traffic in front of you and switch between high and low beams automatically as needed.
