Thinking of buying the 2019 Subaru Forester Base?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2019 Subaru Forester Base for sale by us right now. This page puts the 2019 Subaru Forester Base in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

What to check on the Forester

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. NHTSA has 834 owner complaints on file, mostly about visibility/wiper, unknown or other and electrical system.

Specs, explained

The 2.5L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 25 litres, from its 8.2 L/100 km rating. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $38.13 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

What to expect from the Forester

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

Who it is for

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

A longer test drive

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forester answers the big questions. A week with the Forester answers more than any brochure. If the Forester is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

The cost of driving it

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the Base with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

A note on Patchin

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Patchin starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. Patchin is about 129 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.
