The Subaru Forester was refreshed for 2022, and the updated styling is not all that’s changed: The adventure-focused Wilderness trim has joined the Forester lineup. But since all Subaru SUVs have standard all-wheel drive, the Wilderness will need more than unique badges to distinguish itself. We check it out to see just how off-road-ready the functional updates have made the latest Forester.

Pretty good review. Would have been nice to mention the CVT cooler, engine cooler, and rear differential temp sensor not found on others Foresters.
This one does not need turbo but HYBRID!!!! 2.5 L plus Hybrid = perfect
Many more reviews with her please!!!
Amazing Forester, fantastic review, even better reviewer.
Once I had owned and driven a Forester XT, I'll never go backward to the standard Forester. We've driven our Forester XT across the US: through mountains, deserts, serious off-road situations and years of deep Minnesota snow. It has never failed us. We've never once been stuck in the mud or snow and have averaged 20K miles per year with our Forester XT's.
More reviews with this lady, please! Excellent job🎉
One coming tomorrow morning and another in a few weeks, and many more to come after that! Thank you!
Researched this car segment for the last 2 months, my findings, - 5th gen forester rated #1 in safety and readability over all others including RAV, trial hawk, honda and bronco. That said, it has been a long road for Subaru from the CVT tranny , oil consumption, head gasket issues of past generation vehicles. At 6'3, CR just announced the Forester is #1 with tall drivers as well, no surprise as the "green house" visibility is very attractive. All the safety dings can be disabled permanently, with the exception of engine on/off at stop. After market solution will solve that as well. So, I will be picking up my Subaru Forester Wilderness / pearl white next week. Comfortable driving on and off road, safety and readability, looks, honest service advisors that I have visited with during this time, all have pushed me this direction. And finally driving my daughters 2017 Forester premium, sold me on being a Subie owner. Suggested maintenance to ensure long life; 30k diff (F/R) service, 40k CVT Transmission service, and oil changes every 4k.
Compared to the Outback, Off road analysis/videos show the turbo in the Outback gets totally in the way of performance when climbing, as the Forester's new gearing and software changes bring much more to the equation over the turbo, in my opinion. ruclips.net/video/ZF_JtgJ7aKQ/видео.html
HAPPY TRAILS
This really is an exceptional review of this vehicle! First time I've seen Natalie's work and, as others have noted, she's terrific as well.
If turbo were available, I'd consider it, if it's not too noisy of a ride. But Outback is already there. Thank you, good presentation.
Very good! I enjoyed hearing this girl talk about my car!!!
All reviewrs complaint about acceleration…i think most people make the mistake to floor down the gas pedal, i’va had two Foresters and they accelerate pretty well, just don’t floor it, medium pressure on the gas will give you pretty fast acceleration
looks more like Army green to me. I like it. We bought a '22 Touring model, my wife chose the Magnetite Gray Metallic, my choice would have been the Autumn Green Metallic. But as usual, she got her way, she's my sweetie so it's all good
Another great review Natalie! Your reviews clearly demonstrate that you do your homework when it comes to presenting all the information that we need to know. Great job!
Nice review! I like this Forester a lot and even if a turbo was available am probably one who would stick with this engine (a hybrid option however…). There is so much leg space in back I wish the seats could slide forward to maximize rear cargo. Hopefully the next CRV has an off-road option like this Wilderness
Fine if you like the CVT, I would like the automatic gears either 6 or 9
The power fine the average person is not worried about 0 to 60 more about how the car drives and practicality and straight forwardness the engine is there for efficiency and smoothness and a 21 The suv easy to maneuver and light even when you read the marketing it tells from jump it's capable spacious a responsive all wheel drive and the transmission is responsive too . It can through traffic fine and sufficient enough passing power I have no trouble merging on to traffic and I don't have my foot to the floor . Overall drives good smooth excellent visibility and ton of space
I think every review of the Forester, Wilderness or otherwise, that I've seen has mentioned/complained about the lack of power. It has plenty of power. Not everything needs to be a sports car. Not everything needs to be quick off the line.
I used to have a 1985 BMW 735i(his name was Gunther), and I considered that car pretty quick for a 2-ton sedan. It's power-to-weight ratio(both hp and torque) was worse than the Forester.
I wonder if the wheel wells would accommodate a 65 series tire, like 225/65 instead of that 60 sidewall that looks a tad small. The Outback Wilderness does come with the 65 series sidewall, same exact wheel. The Forester just needs a wee bit more meat around those nice looking 5 spoke wheels.
Its on my shortlist for a new vehicle, if only my local Subaru dealer would get some in stock in this color.
It also has an offroad tuned suspension
I like the car and her 🙂🙂😁❤️❤️
Where would I take the Foster Wilderness? Well, with a CVT, I wouldn't take it off the dealer's lot.
Btw, good interview. Not too much hype, and seems fair about the benefits and shortcomings.
did the windshield crack yet?
I got the 22 Outback Wilderness same color green with a turbo engine which is a big deal for me.
This vehicle handles terrain better. And doesn't have that laggy infotainment system at the outback has
How tall are you because you standing next to the Forester the SUV appearance to be big? Am I right about that?
Waiting for the Forester wilderness turbo
That's not going to happen because they'd sell a lot fewer Outbacks. That's why they pulled the Forester turbo.
Whenever Subaru uses “_______ green metallic”, you know it’s gonna be debated as to what the color actually is. Like my 09 Sage Green Metallic Forester that most people think is “steel blue” 😅
I hope if the transmission was pure automatic not CVT.. engine I think good enough
The combination of 2,5 with a turbo as introduced in early 2000's has never been surpassed, and why Subaru dropped this winning combination is not entirely clear. The fuel consumption argument does not really fly..as turbos are used in many applications by many manufacturers. My 2006 2,5 xt puts out 175kilowatts and 300 nm of torque and that is the kind of power this one needs.
The outback wilderness has the turbo. But this Forester wilderness is getting better reviews
She makes that car look much bigger than it is...no insult to her.
With a larger engine option, the zForester would be almost perfect.
bring back the XT and ill upgrade from my 2017 xt
beauitful car....i have a 2014 forrester....luxury edition....practial AF and so so great for soft off road......you get so much with a forrester compared to euro $$$$$ ego SUVs....plenty of cabin room.....sure, not a pretty or sexy (at all) car, but who gives AF.....love it value for money, A to B, comfort
Pretty HOT!!! Yes, the color adds to that HOTNESS!!!
It would be perfect if it had a manual trans option like the crosstrek
Dont like the paddle shifters?
@@SageLakshmi kinda pointless on a cvt trans
Nothing random about an XT on the Forester; given that Forester had an XT for 2018 and then cancelled it. I've had two Forester XT's, a 2014 and now a 2018. I loved them both and if Subaru doesn't bring back a Forester XT within a couple years, I'll be switching brands. I really dislike the current Forester with the noisy underpowered engine. YUCK!! Subaru, kindly give us a break. You can put an XT 's in sedans, in the Outback and the Crosstrek, why not bring it back for the Forester. My own dealer said they couldn't get enough Forester XT's; why was it cancelled. The dealer said he heard they weren't selling well in some markets. The problem was there weren't enough XT's available and they weren't promoted as an option ( a great one, I believe) to the standard Forester.
Not worth the low mileage numbers. Double X-Mode is a gimmick that most people would not know how to use. If you know how to drive off-road and in inclement weather conditions, it’s amazing what a standard Subaru can do regardless of model.
My dream car but only if it comes with turbo
Cute soccer mom.... Car
The rav TRD offroad gets eaten alive by the forester wilderness in any offroad test
🥰
Too much money for what you get
Too much plastic cladding 🤮
the video clip of the competition, the Jeep Cherokee driving straight down the trout creek was priceless! let's take our off road cars and drive them in places no vehicle should ever be, and destroy the river ecology, because you know, fun!! if that is stock Jeep footage, i'll boycott the brand for that garbage.
I wouldn't spend $35k for a noisy car. Subaru can keep all the cladding ... give me a quieter vehicle.
If the plastic is painted it wouldn't be an issue? The purpose of the black bumpers is to take damage and be replaced cheap. Front bumper and rear are both around $300. Road noise will always be a thing with beefer tires. Take a jeep for a ride.
@@teabag3854 the degree of cladding around the wheels is overkill. More insulation and better windows will improve road noise even with the tires. Different tires will help too as not all are the same regarding noise.
I own this exact vehicle. It’s very quiet up until 70MPH.
If you live in a southern state where they dont salt the piss out of the roads, the cladding isnt necessary. However I live in rust hell ny state. I have a new crosstrek and I'm hoping the cladding keeps the rust away, particularly the rear quarter panels
this car not for u..but for many and many people not like u
I could really give to schitt's about the color and how they're doing this video it sucks because they're trying to sell a car I want to know the good features in the bad features not he'll miss Polly Pocket want to sell me a Subaru Forester thank you but no thank you
