I am sharing this video because you deserve a bigger audience. This is the kind or review we want - objective. Now kindly do for Subaru WRX S4. Tafasali
The paddles have two modes, in Sport# , it actually simulates 8 gears, in "normal" Sport mode is 6. You can also use them to "activate gear mode" even in Intelligent Drive. Then, if you don't use the paddles for several seconds, the CVT goes back to Intelligent Drive mode automatically.
Am subaru enthusiasm. i had to glued here to get that important information. Currently, I have bm9, and the day I will offload it , the subaru xt will be next
I bought a 2016 XT for the turbo and love driving the car, it is much more exciting than the rav4, cx-5 etc. If you can get a 2016 or 2017 they come with some facelifted features, such as a newer design for the head and tail lights. Otherwise very similar.
I've read that it actually is faster acceleration if you use the Sport mode. Sport Sharp gives a sportier feel with the "fake gear shifts", but with Sport mode, the CVT is optimally used for smoother and faster acceleration. Does anyone have any more info on that?
I have had a Forester 2012 XT but these cars are disappointing nowadays. Engine problems, gear box etc performance is below par. Probox inakupita kwa highway
What makes the xt engine fail ,is it poor handling, I know guys like tuning this engines Please advise am very interested in this car ,am scared because of the frequent engine break downs

Thanks. Once we land it, we’ll bring it to the channel.
Great review.Very powerful engine.Friend of mine replaced an engine worth 550k .Car needs to be handled with care
Yes the engine is very expensive to replace. DIT can be very pricey and costlier to maintain.
Use VPower. Don't forget to maintain it at the required intervals. Make sure the car warms up and cools down appropriately
@@lancemayabi3887 yes premium fuel ndio siri ya DIT.
This is the best subaru ever XT
Awesome good review, it will even be more interesting for you to bring the comparison between these and outback . 🙏🙏🙏
We will be bringing the Outback very soon. Keep it here on the channel. You can also share the video with friends.

Excellent reviews, between audi Q5 S and the Forester xt, which one is cheaper to maintain?
Maintenance is relative. If it's parts they're in the same region.
I've read that it actually is faster acceleration if you use the Sport mode. Sport Sharp gives a sportier feel with the "fake gear shifts", but with Sport mode, the CVT is optimally used for smoother and faster acceleration.
Does anyone have any more info on that?
Do you recommend prioritizing performance over reliability, keeping SJ5 in consideration?
It depends on one's tastes and preferences.
I have had a Forester 2012 XT but these cars are disappointing nowadays. Engine problems, gear box etc performance is below par. Probox inakupita kwa highway
They are not the most reliable cars out there but when healthy a Probox doesn't come close.
this thing is fast af
Yes quicker compared to other cars in the class.
Please review Daihatsu Mira/ Toyota Pixis Epoch/ Subaru Pleo
Noted it will come to the channel
We'll appreciate
Do you mean that SG5s have no CVT at all?
Yes
No CVT in the SF, SG and SH.
Between a Audi q3 vs subaru forester sjg which one would you recommend?
Forester is more superior than a Q3
You mean maintaining a Q5 is cheaper than maintaining an XT?
Compared to the New Nissan Xtrail, which would you recommend for a family car?
Xtrail because of 7 seats.
@@0-60motoring. Thank you..any downsides to watch out for on the Xtrail ?
@@fixthenation1464 transmission can become problematic at times. Not as fun to drive as a Forester
I guess I'm joining the forester family then ... Thank you 🤝

How much is the steering rack?
Anywhere between 120-170k.
This could excite you ruclips.net/video/yc66ivgr-NY/видео.html
How does the fuel consumption differ between the Turbo charged XT versus the non turbo charged ones?
@@IjaJimmy This was extensively covered.
What makes the xt engine fail ,is it poor handling, I know guys like tuning this engines
Please advise am very interested in this car ,am scared because of the frequent engine break downs
Apart from tuning, these DIT engines are programmed to run on high octane fuel.
Sometimes carbon buildup also brings issues.

This a terribly expensive vehicle to live with. You will pay for that acceleration thrill with your nose and teeth
We already know the solutions that's why it's all smiles and laughs. Checkbour channel for the maintenance video and cost break down.
you pay that acceleration with your nose and teeth hahahahaaaaa
Still enjoying the acceleration and thrill; one year later.

XT is very expensive. Cannot recommend kabisa.
The most expensive car to maintain in the class.
