Car leasing: 2023 Subaru Forester Premier in Yameri

Buying the 2023 Subaru Forester Premier

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2023 Subaru Forester Premier for sale by us right now. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. This page puts the 2023 Subaru Forester Premier in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Forester

NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 74 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, forward collision avoidance and visibility/wiper; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Engine and fuel

The powertrain to know here 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.

The EPA rates it at 8.2 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 25 litres. 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.

What the Forester is like

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

Who rents the Forester

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.

Drive it on your own roads

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

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.71 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Choosing the right one

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. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
