Thinking of buying the 2020 Subaru Forester Limited?

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2020 Subaru Forester Limited for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Buying the 2020 Subaru Forester Limited is a big decision; here is the information we have.

What to check on the Forester

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 603 complaints with NHTSA, most often about visibility/wiper, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

The figures, translated

The powertrain here is the 2.5L 4-cylinder with all-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 25 litres, from its 8.2 L/100 km rating. Every 100 km costs about $12.71 in fuel 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.

When the Forester makes sense

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

A longer test drive

If the Forester is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Running costs

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

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
