The 2021 Subaru Forester Base in plain words

As the entry trim, the Base starts the 2021 Subaru Forester lineup. This page covers the 2021 Subaru Forester Base, a compact SUV.

What the specs mean

It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder, 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. A continuously variable automatic keeps the engine in its most efficient range.

The combined figure, 8.2 L/100 km, means roughly 25 litres for 300 km. In the city it is rated at 9.0 L/100 km, and on the highway 7.2. That works out to about $12.71 per 100 km at our price setting. In miles per US gallon, it is rated 29 combined.

The Forester in everyday use

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

Who the Forester suits

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Trips in the Forester

For a trip out of Ontario, ask first: it needs our written consent. Plan longer trips against the kilometres included each day. Each car shows the kilometres included each day and the rate for extra ones.

Renting this car

Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Tell us your dates and we check this car or the closest match. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

What to have ready

We rent to drivers aged 18 and up who hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.

Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car, you choose one of three options before pickup. The deposit amount depends on the car and is shown on its page. The checks are the same for everyone: licence, identity and the agreement.

From request to keys

Send a request for the car and dates you have in mind. It is free and it commits you to nothing. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. When you approve the offer and pay, the car is booked for you.

A car's page shows the deposit and the kilometres included each day. Rent for a day, a week or up to 365 days in one booking. Requests need at least 2 hours of notice before the pickup time.

Questions, dates or both: put them in a request and we answer.
