    CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2024 Subaru Forester Base for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. The 2024 Subaru Forester Base for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

    What to check on the Forester

    In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

    The figures, translated

    Its 2.5L 4-cylinder drives through 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.

    Combined fuel use is 8.2 L/100 km: about 25 litres for 300 km. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $38.13 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Who the Forester suits

    It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country.

    Space and size

    As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

    A longer test drive

    Narrowing it down

    Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Compare the Base with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

    The cost of driving it

    A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting. 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.
