    Thinking of buying the 2023 Subaru Forester Base?

    CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2023 Subaru Forester Base for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. For anyone shopping for the 2023 Subaru Forester Base, here are the facts that matter.

    Before you sign for the Forester

    Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 74 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, forward collision avoidance and visibility/wiper; have those parts checked.

    The numbers in plain words

    Its powertrain is the 2.5L 4-cylinder with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

    A combined rating of 8.2 L/100 km works out to about 25 litres per 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $12.71 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    What to expect from the Forester

    It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.

    Who rents the Forester

    Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.

    Try before you buy

    A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Forester for a week and see how it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

    The cost of driving it

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting.

    Choosing the right one

    Compare the Base with the other trims of the same year before you decide. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

    A note on Java

    Java is about 770 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Java starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.
