    Ah Subaru... I don't understand why you're not listening to your current long-time loyal customers. That giant touch screen in my 23 Outback Wilderness is my biggest gripe about the vehicle. Having it as an option I could understand, but having it as the only option is not ideal. You should of kept physical HVAC and other vehicle controls and the Infotainment separate. It really sucks trying to keep your eyes on the road and peck away at a screen for all vehicle functions. I'll definitely hesitate to purchase another Subaru if you keep going down this path.

      My opinion on design:
      1. I like that they've changed the roof racks to be more practical with flush rails! (for the exception of models with sunroof)
      2. The middle of the car looks OK, I would say it looks quite generic
      3. I really liked the trim at the bottom of the car, its a pretty good design!
      4. The pattern inside looks cute
      To the old ppl who complain that they removed physical buttons:
      They actually didn't remove physical buttons, they just moved them. Majority of buttons located on steering wheel, a few on the driver's door and some near the tablet, some are also near gear stick. ALL PHYSICAL BUTTONS ARE PRESENT!
      You are not supposed to use tablet while driving! While driving you can only use it for:
      - maps/navigation
      - camera usage, eg while parking
      For ppl who afraid there could be problems as it's a new generation. They are NOT using new technology, so the chance of getting a problem is low. They've used this technology for years in subaru outback and now in crosstreck 2024.
      I personally like their changes, I think subaru have done a great job! (No I am not working for subaru, just personal opinion after test driving old forester and outback with new technology, i definitely wait for new forester)

      For what it's worth, we have the current Subaru Forester with the standard 2.5L boxer. We live in the Rockies and it pulls the mountain really well and is peppy from the start. I test drove the Outback with a 2.4 turbo and was frankly underwhelmed by it. 2.5L was smoother and quicker. All in my not scientific, humble opinion of course.
      But, that said, not seeing anything that would cause me to swap upgrade from the current model ... the 2025 upgrades are also a bit underwhelming.

Spoiled with a WRX early on. The Outback Wilderness XT with the 2.4 definitely had a smooth and strong pull. Not great, but it may have to do with the heavier weight compared to a Forester.

The tablet is great for carplay and navigating without any stupid phone holders, sure not having physical buttons for vents or seats isn't pleasing but still it's great! Forester isn't meant for having high power, it's in cars name that it's for people who loves versatility of offroad and city, get impreza if you want the power, Subaru gives you the choice between the models. People complaining about the spirit of Subaru and such, yes it's true they lost it as all other car makers in a way since 2008 because most of them went for cheaper manufacturing cost and it confirmed in expense of the owner because you pay more for car maintenance but give me a car maker that is as reliable and as safe within such price range, you won't find it.

Most of them will tell BS stories about cars they never owned, ask whether problems have been resolved that were resolved ten years ago, or just spew childish BS about cars they have no experience with, and never had any intention (or money) to buy. Yet, none of these bedwetters can explain why Subaru's sales continue to climb every year, or why Consumer Reports continues to rate Subaru as one of the safest and best cars in the market.

    I have many different opinions. Here’s a short version for whoever cares to read. As a brand ambassador I think it’s great. It’s got the famous AWD, safety features, comfort features and some fancy buttons. As an enthusiast it’s a bit bland (not terrible though!). I think it’s a little bland because I don’t see changes to the powertrain (I stand to be corrected) and no manual option. Also by 2025 some of the features will just be run of the mill. Like the 2024 Crosstrek has the upgraded eyesight along with the Outback sooo why wait with the Forester? I get Subaru's cars are updated every five years so it’s not time for the Forester upgrade yet, however Subaru should just offer it now which would even the playing field per se.
    As a side note: if you like the dual screens I’d get one now before it’s all 11.6 inch ones!! At the end of the day I’m not sure how I feel! Perhaps it’s just that I love my Subie how it is now and change seems hard (not necessarily bad). Time will tell, maybe the OG Subie Squad is just getting ran out of business 😢.
    UPDATE: I just saw another video taking a deep dive into the vehicle. Apparently it's still the 2.5 liter naturally aspirated flat four. We went down to 180 hp.

      @@smellybearc7411 I would say that you are correct with your statement. As far as my knowledge goes (I am no employee of Subaru so I'm limited to my personal research) this is essentially the same Forester as before with the 11 inch screen. The screen capabilities seem to be the same as the other Subarus that have the upgrade. Likewise, the Eyesight system is the newest version of the Eyesight we're seeing in Outbacks, Crosstreks, etc. The video mentioned the foot activated opening gate (the Outback has a similar feature). I will not keep listing things but yeah a lot of stuff is the same.
      I have heard many people say quite confidently that there will be an E-boxer (hybrid) coming in 2026 along with a Wilderness edition. This is also not new since, in select countries like Australia, had an E-Boxer Forester that was never offered in the USA. Of course we presently have the Forester Wilderness no huge surprise either.
      This is borderline cosmetic but the entry/exit angles might have been slightly upgraded too, I dunno. Going along with the borderline cosmetic thing, Cargo capacity could have changed. I feel like I caught a glimpse of info about the cargo capacity but really do not recall so please don't quote me there. Are you looking into getting a Forester etc? What's your thoughts?

    Upon initial consideration, my thoughts gravitated towards the 2015 Ford Explorer. I would recommend mitigating losses by engaging the services of a skilled head designer. Examining the positive impact on Kia and Hyundai/Genesis sales post head designer changes underscores the potential benefits. While acknowledging Subaru's reputation for reliable vehicles, it's evident that improvements in design are essential.

    I am glad I bought the 2023 Forester Sport ed. The new model doesn't add value to a great car. Minues the lost of few horse power and probably torque due to heavy material use to build it. I assume they will increase the price a bit too. The only I like about the new model is the availability of hybird battery for additional power. Like most Subaru enthusiasts, these mid size do need an upgrade in power so they can climb up the mountain for family apple picking trip of the occasional off road adventures. The mechanical safety of the Subaru Forester is second to none which is the real seller.

    My opinion on design:
    1. I like that they've changed the roof racks to be more practical with flush rails! (for the exception of models with sunroof)
    2. The middle of the car looks OK, I would say it looks quite generic
    3. I really liked the trim at the bottom of the car, its a pretty good design!
    4. The pattern inside looks cute
    To the old ppl who complain that they removed physical buttons:
    They actually didn't remove physical buttons, they just moved them. Majority of buttons located on steering wheel, a few on the driver's door and some near the tablet, some are also near gear stick. ALL PHYSICAL BUTTONS ARE PRESENT!
    You are not supposed to use tablet while driving! While driving you can only use it for:
    - maps/navigation
    - camera usage, eg while parking
    For ppl who afraid there could be problems as it's a new generation. They are NOT using new technology, so the chance of getting a problem is low. They've used this technology for years in subaru outback and now in crosstreck 2024.
    I personally like their changes, I think subaru have done a great job! (No I am not working for subaru, just personal opinion after test driving old forester and outback with new technology, i definitely wait for new forester)

    Guys... I need your urgent help. I went to Go Langley Subaru in BC Canada and fell in love with a Subaru Forester Sport. Promised them I shall go back today and book it; and if possible take delivery. I came home and searched for a video to share with my dad back home. I chanced upon the 2025 variant that's just around the corner...as per Subaru, launching in Spring 2024. Now I am totally lost. Should I buy the 2024 or but the 2025? I don't mind the 1000 dollar increase, but the touch screen looks nice and overall the 2025 feels more premium from the videos. What should I do? Thanks in advance

    I have to admit I like the new exterior design, and the new touch screen. But a number of missed upgrades. More powerful engine would have been nice. After watching a number of overview videos, the doors don’t seem to open as wide as the current model. I was really hoping this new model would have the same, if not a slightly larger boot space when compared to the current Toyota Rav4/Honda CRV. I was surprised the new Forester doesn’t offer 4 way lumbar, at any Forrester model (especially to the top spec model). Lastly it appears the back middle seat, seatbelt is still coming from the roof instead of the seat. Overall I like this new design
