The 2027 Subaru Forester Lineup Gets a Hybrid Wilderness Without Major Price HikesMotorTrendMiguel CortinaFri, September 18, 2026 at 10:04 PM UTCAdd us on GoogleHere's the 2027 Subaru Forester and Hybrid PricingMotorTrendSubaru is keeping most prices unchanged for the 2027 Forester lineup while announcing pricing for the new Forester Hybrid Wilderness. Only the gas-powered Wilderness and Limited trims receive modest price increases, though Subaru adds equipment to both. The automaker is also discontinuing the gas-powered Sport and Touring variants.Pricing for the 2027 Forester starts at $31,470 for the base trim and rises to $33,470 for the Premium. With the Sport discontinued, there is a sizable jump from the Premium to the next gas-powered model, the Limited, which starts at $39,070. However, because Subaru now mixes gas and hybrid options throughout the lineup, buyers do not have to take such a large price jump. The Forester Premium Hybrid starts at $36,205, while the Sport Hybrid starts at $39,405.The biggest news is the pricing for the all-new 2027 Subaru Forester Hybrid Wilderness, which starts at $41,970—just $1,000 more than its gas-powered counterpart. Both Wilderness models offer 9.3 inches of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, additional underbody protection, StarTex-upholstered seats, a Harman Kardon audio system, and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. Unfortunately, neither model receives Subaru's new infotainment system, which debuted in the Outback. New for 2027 are heated rear seats and a StarTex-wrapped steering wheel.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe top two models in the Forester lineup are the Limited Hybrid and Touring Hybrid, which start at $40,470 and $43,020, respectively.Here's a look at the 2027 Forester's pricing:We're glad Subaru isn't raising prices across the board, especially amid ongoing inflation and tariffs imposed on imported parts and vehicles. The 2027 gas-powered Forester continues to use a 2.5-liter boxer engine producing 180 horsepower. Hybrid models pair a 2.5-liter boxer engine with an electric motor for a combined 190 horsepower. Every Forester comes with a CVT transmission and standard all-wheel drive.Photo credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendAdvertisementAdvertisementPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrendAdvertisementAdvertisementPhoto credit: MotorTrendPhoto credit: MotorTrend
