  • In this episode, Jon brought James to check out a newer version of the car he currently drives. This latest iteration of the #Subaru #Forester features some slight design tweaks, and now includes a mild hybrid e-BOXER engine. Will the big change under the hood be able to win over our hosts?

    I recently test drove it. Some things to mention: It's about $5K more and fuel saving only about 8%. For the amount of driving I do which isn't so much, I won't get back ROI in the 5 years or so I plan to keep it. Also, on the e-Boxer there's no spare tire, and if I drive to Malaysia I'd rather have that spare than depend only on an electric pump and sealant. I've decided to buy the pure petrol version instead. Currently I drive a 2015 Forester XT. I'll miss the turbo and sport sharp mode. Forester is still the only good value 4WD SUV in Singapore!

    With the Subaru Forester’s eyesight specialty, it will most definetly have a Satisfaction Guaranteed outcome for buyers. Functions such as Lane Departure Warning, Pre Collision Warning and more of that, it’s definetly a value for money. 10 stars and big 2 thumbs up. Shoutout to James and Jon. Bravo. 👍🏻👍🏻

    Great video brother's... Kudos to all the efforts... Your videos are quite enjoyable...
    I am stuck between suzuki jimny and subaru xv as i need a small yet functional car.
    Your jimny review was very helpful. Requesting your to spare some time for reviewing subaru xv 2.0i-s eyesight high end.

    i have also read somewhere that while driving forestet e boxer :
    “...,on many occasions the switch over from battery power to petrol engine results in a momentary drop in power - a bit scary whilst pulling out on a junction or onto a roundabout...”
    have you noticed it ?? can you comment on that please

    Great review. 12v socket in the back is usually to vacuum the boot floor? :)

      Usually. Or if u need charge anything at the back

  • @2306mljj
    @2306mljj 4 года назад +5

    I guess it's a "go try" for me... although leaning a tad bit towards "won't buy". Both the interior and exterior design are alright but at that price point, I guess I could go for a SEAT Ateca?
    Nonetheless, great review as always guys!!

    • @sgcarmartreviews
      @sgcarmartreviews  4 года назад +1

      The Ateca is a good-looking car! 1.4 Turbo DSG vs a 2.0 NA Mild Hybrid CVT with EyeSight.... I guess you have to try both cars to see which one makes you happy.

    nice review. the first subaru i drove in 95 never had an efficient FC, i don't see why the current batch of subbies should too. nonetheless, still happy with my forester but prob jump ship.

  • @jhf4930
    @jhf4930 4 года назад

    It make sense that Subaru take away the XT engine from the Forester.
    A high torque engine may not a suitable aspect for a car that is primary designed for overcoming difficult slippery road. This is the main demand for their major market.
    While our city state with well surfaced road will prefer the high torque turbo Engine, our market is just too small

    Good video

  • @MrOng7474
    @MrOng7474 3 года назад

    I won't even try...
    Reasons:
    1) compulsory start-stop- very irritating
    2) 2 litre but heavy & slow acceleration
    3) 509litres of boot space but can't even fit the length of aunty trolley, a new sofa octavia has 600litres of boot space, FYI.
    4) at 125k, there are so many more choices, camry hybrid, noah hybrid, MG HS to name a few.
    5) mild hybrid dun really help much in FC
    6) outdated & boring design
    7) no turbo
    8) with 100kg of batteries, full load is equivalent to taking 7 passengers.

    There is no spare tyre. What if there is a puncture when on road trip ?

  • @Paopaocha444
    @Paopaocha444 4 года назад +5

    12 volt at the back, probably for vacuuming?

  • @weijie7792
    @weijie7792 3 года назад

    This is not a good review imo. There's no mentioning about the safety features of EyeSight. Lane keep? adaptive cruise control?

  • @lyhalvin
    @lyhalvin 4 года назад

    I have to disagree on the subject of the jimny's steering being good to throw around(dun think so) , vs the fxt's steering being vague/wooden. Both these cars have the design purpose of going off road, and in my opinion, when u do go off road, the terrain would punish your arms if the steering were to be sports direct and tight. And in some cases, snap your fingers. So the engineers have made the steering as such for a reason. More likely those with sporty steering would be termed urban suvs with little to no intent to off road it.

    0-100 KM/H in 11.8 seconds? That’s horrid. My Mazda 2 does better than that! No wonder Subaru’s sales are tanking.

  • @farashi1980
    @farashi1980 4 года назад +1

    to me EV is pointless here , it reduces fuel tank size but increase car weights, doesn’t really add any extra power boost ( as other manufacturers) in fact it reduce overall performance, No EV mode button and 1 mile range is a joke. does not really improve Fuel economy that significantly either, i would say disappointing . You didn’t mention sound system but it’s usually quite poor too in subaru .Overall its not that much “greener” i guess just marketing, unless we are talking about body paint colour ,. but you can show off you ultra modern eco friendly “E” badge. I feel that bringing such car is actually creating more waste and pollution then good and no alternative to death animal skin - not very environmently friendly
    ( why not StarTex)
    and Subaru please stop using piano black specially around gears shift panel - scratches so easily
    3screens ! one too many - distractions
    missing practical things like :
    40/20/40 back seat
    front passenger seat fold flat for long items
    wireless charging
    hands free tailgate
    front camera and sensors ( which are pretty standard on modern cars)
    240v outlet
    head up display
    slide and recliner back seats
    generally too many buttons on steering wheel
    lack of customisation in advance vehice settings, for example : radio on or off upon vehicle start up.
    custom favourite buttons ( shortcut)
    one button display off - night drive
    auto mirror fold
    etc.

      Agree. This hybrid system in the Subaru is kind of useless and defeat the actual purpose of a hybrid in delivering good fuel economy while help on slight performance improvement.
