Advanced Subaru Safety
The Forester is packed with advanced active safety features like standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology
and the available DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System
Versatile Capability
The Forester is always ready for your next adventure, whether you're going into the backwoods or just downtown. With standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, you get all-weather, all-road confidence no matter where you're headed. The 2022 Forester is the only non-luxury compact SUV to feature standard all-wheel drive. That’s more standard capability than the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, or Ford Escape.
Long-Lasting Quality
The Forester will be with you on all the journeys ahead — 97% of Forester vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today, more than Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, Jeep Cherokee, Ford Escape, or Hyundai Santa Fe. Its long-lasting quality is one reason why the Forester retains its value better than any other vehicle in its class for seven years in a row, and has the Best Resale Value in its class for three years running, according to Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com. The Forester even has the Lowest 5-Year Cost to Own in its class for three years running, according to Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com
Subaru DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System
The 2022 Forester features a state-of-the-art system to help reduce distracted driving for both new and experienced drivers. Each day in the United States, more than 1,000 people are injured in crashes reported to have involved a distracted driver. Working with our award-winning EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, the DriverFocus system is like having an attentive co-pilot along for the ride, available to give a helpful alert if a driver becomes distracted or drowsy. For added convenience, DriverFocus can also recognize up to five different drivers and remember their preferences, including seat position, climate settings, and outside mirror position.
All-Around Awareness Technologies
The 2022 Forester features an entire suite of available safety technologies to help protect you and your passengers. The Blind-Spot Detection system warns you with a visual indicator on each side mirror if it senses a vehicle in your blind spots. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert helps warn you of traffic approaching from the side as you are backing up. With available Reverse Automatic Braking, your vehicle can even stop itself to help avoid objects behind you
