  • Introducing the 2011 Subaru Forester: A Test DriveWelcome to our review of the 2011 Subaru Forester. If you're not familiar with Subaru, now is a great time to learn more about this brand. In this article, we will explore the features and performance of the brand new Forester 2.5X.When it comes to design, both inside and out, the Subaru Forester is characterized by simplicity. It may not have the eye-catching wow factor that some cars possess, but that's not what Subarus are known for. Instead, they focus on functionality and usability.Starting with the exterior, the 2011 Forester has remained largely unchanged from its predecessor. In the past, Subaru has been known to make drastic design updates, particularly to their front grills and facade. However, this year, they have opted to maintain a similar look to the 2010 model.Inside the Forester, there have also been minimal changes. The standard features include a radio, steering wheel-mounted cruise control buttons, and climate control. Everything is placed exactly where you would expect it to be, emphasizing practicality and intuitiveness.While the Subaru Forester may not be the most thrilling car to drive, it still offers an enjoyable experience. The throttle is responsive, and the handling is impressive for a crossover SUV. Despite sitting higher off the ground, it handles corners well and accelerates smoothly from a stop.One aspect of the Forester that could be improved is its transmission. It only offers four gears, even when in Sport mode, which may be a disappointment for some drivers.In conclusion, the 2011 Subaru Forester may not stand out with its design or performance, but it excels in its core qualities. Its all-wheel drive capability makes it suitable for any weather or terrain, while providing ample space for passengers and cargo. Additionally, Subaru vehicles are known for their longevity. If you are looking for a reliable and practical SUV, the Forester is definitely worth considering.
  • Subtitles section
  • If you don’t know Subaru already, maybe it’s about time you did.
  • Hi, I’m Miranda Lightstone with WatchMojo.com, and today we’re taking a look at the brand new Forester 2.5X.
  • Both inside and out, the Subaru Forester doesn’t really have a whole lot of wow features going on.
  • It’s a very simple, almost a mundane car, and that’s really okay, because Subarus are really all about functionality and usability.
  • Now, on the exterior, this Forester hasn’t seen a lot of change from 2010, which in the past, Subaru has been known to update their front facade, their grills, and kind of be very extreme in their designs.
  • However, this year, in the 2011, the Forester looks pretty much the same as the 2010.
  • Even on the inside, there hasn’t been a great deal of change.
  • You have your standard radio here, you’ve got your steering wheel-mounted cruise control radio buttons there, climate control here.
  • Really, it’s all very functional, very where you’d want it to be, and that’s what Subarus are.
  • What you have is an all-wheel drive vehicle, it’s good in any weather, on any terrain, that fits the kids and your cargo in the back, and is going to last for years to come.
  • Even though the Subaru Forester isn’t highly exciting, I do enjoy driving it.
  • It has a nice responsive throttle, and I like the way it handles, even though it’s a crossover and it sits a bit higher up, and still feels really good in the corners, and has really good pickup when you leave a stop sign.
  • What I don’t really like is that the transmission is actually only four gears.
  • Even when you have it in Sport mode, you’re only working with four, and again, I find that a bit strange.
  • Blissfully, though, it’s not a CVT, so it does shift, but with four gears, I kind of feel like I’m lacking, that my revs are going to always be really high, and I don’t really like that.
  • Now, of course, because this is a Subaru, it has a horizontally-opposed Boxster engine.
  • It’s a 2.5 litre that pushes out 170 horsepower and 174 pound of torque.
  • Again, not massive numbers, this isn’t a sporty, speedy car, but enough to get you through the winter, and to get you through any other driving conditions that you might have in the Subaru Forester.
  • The beautiful thing about Subarus is their all-wheel drive system.
  • Unlike any other all-wheel drive car, their system works all four wheels, all the time, which is why it’s called asymmetrical all-time all-wheel drive.
  • There’s no fancy computer system fiddling with which wheel needs what power when.
  • It’s always on, it’s always there, it’s all-wheel drive, that’s how it works, and that’s really what sets Subaru apart from any other all-wheel drive vehicle on the road.
  • I drive a Subaru on a daily basis when I’m not driving the test vehicles, and I really feel the difference when I get into an all-wheel drive vehicle that’s not a Subaru.
  • Truly, it’s Subaru’s asymmetrical all-wheel drive system that really pulls in the buyers, and if you’re in the market for a safe winter car that also has a lot of cargo space, you might want to check out the Forester.
