Subaru Canada has announced the 2019 Forester, completely redesigned around the Subaru Global Platform, will start at $27,995.
The roomiest, most capable Forester to date will be available in 2.5i, Convenience, Touring, Sport, Limited and Premier trims when it arrives at Subaru dealers across the country.
Pricing will start at $29,995.
Joining Subaru’s award-winning EyeSight driver assist system is the all-new and segment-exclusive DriverFocus safety technology aimed at combating driver fatigue and distracted driving.
As an industry leader in safety, Subaru developed this state-of-the-art system to help address the growing issue of distracted driving and driver fatigue for both new and experienced drivers.
Built on the Subaru Global Platform (SGP), the new Forester features slightly larger exterior dimensions, resulting in the roomiest cabin in its history, while retaining the maneuverability that’s synonymous with the popular Subaru.
For 2019, all Foresters will be powered by a new direct-injection, 2.5-litre direct-injection Subaru Boxer four-cylinder engine featuring ISS ignition Start/Stop paired with a Lineartronic continuously variable transmission (CVT).
Also standard on all trim levels is Subaru’s legendary Symmetrical full-time all-wheel-drive with standard X-Mode and an available two-mode X-Mode offers even more capability to go virtually anywhere necessary.
New for 2019, the Forester Convenience adds comfort and convenience features including 17-inch alloy wheels, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, premium cloth upholstery, a six-speaker audio system, dual-zone automatic climate control and a 6.3-inch colour multifunction display atop the dash.
Other features include paddle shifters, a rear seat armrest with integrated cupholders and a rear tonneau cover, as well as a rear spoiler and a windshield wiper de-icer.
Subaru’s award-winning EyeSight driver assist system, which includes adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, lane departure warning, lane sway warning and lane-keep assist, is available as an option on the Convenience trim. Also included in the optional EyeSight package is a proximity key with push-button start and Reverse Automatic Braking.
