New Subaru Forester: Versatile, adventure-ready crossover for sale near Prince Frederick and La Plata MD
If you're looking for a vehicle that can add some utility to your daily drives without taking up too much space, a compact crossover is a great place to start. But while just about any model in the segment can give you a bit more space and a taller vantage point, true versatility is more than just extra carrying capacity. On top of its roomy accommodations and flexible cargo area, the Subaru Forester boasts genuine four-season capability and a wealth of available amenities. Plus, it comes standard with a full suite of advanced driver-assistance technologies. It's a compact SUV that helps you make the most of your daily adventures. And it's available right here at Ourisman Subaru Waldorf.
Capability
Under the hood, the Subaru Forester finds incentive in a 2.5L four-cylinder BOXER® engine (182 horsepower, 176 pound-feet of torque) paired with a Lineartronic® CVT. Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive delivers sure-footed handling and control in inclement conditions. And with 8.7 inches of ground clearance and X-MODE traction/hill-descent control (standard on Premium and above), Forester isn't timid about taking the road less traveled.
Accommodations and Versatility
Inside the attractive and intuitively arranged cabin, Forester offers surprisingly spacious seating for five and a cavernous cargo capacity that defies its "compact" designation. With 111.9 cubic feet of passenger volume, Forester is roomier than prominent class competitors from the likes of Honda, Toyota, and Ford. Behind the second-row, Forester reserves 31 cubic feet for your luggage, groceries, or gear. And when your adventures require even more space, just fold down the 60/40-split rear seats to access up to 70.9 cubic feet (76.1 on base models).
Technology and Safety Features
Staying connected on-the-go without getting distracted is easy with Forester's STARLINK® Multimedia system. Standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto seamlessly integrate your compatible smartphone with the 6.5" or available 8" touchscreen. And using voice commands or steering wheel buttons, you can intuitively access useful apps and features like hands-free calling and messaging, Google/Apple Maps, streaming or stored media, and more.
Leveraging advanced stereo camera technology, Subaru EyeSight® driver aids serve as an extra pair of eyes on the road, enhancing driving awareness and helping to better detect and respond to hazards. And best of all, they come standard on every new Forester. EyeSight® technologies include:
- Pre-Collision Braking System
- Pre-Collision Throttle Management
- Lane-Keep Assist and Sway Warning
- Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control w/ Lane Centering
For an extra degree of driving confidence, Blind-Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist, and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert are available on Forester Premium and standard on Forester Sport and above.
