    The 2025 Subaru Forester Base for buyers

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2025 Subaru Forester Base for sale by us right now. Here is the 2025 Subaru Forester Base for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

    Before you sign for the Forester

    Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

    Engine and fuel

    The engine 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.

    Expect about 25 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.2 L/100 km combined rating. A 300 km weekend costs about $38.13 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Space, size and seats

    Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

    Who it is for

    Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

    A longer test drive

    Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forester answers the big questions. Try the Forester on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

    Money matters

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. 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.

    Picking a year and a trim

    Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
