Auto123 gets in a first drive of the 2025 Subaru Forester, as the Japanese automaker launches the sixth generation of its SUV this spring.
Victoria, BC - The automotive industry is full of surprises, but it also has its share of certainties. One of them is that when Subaru updates a model, don’t expect anything radical.

Rather, like the rest of the changes, it's about evolution. The Harman Kardon audio system is now available on more versions, starting with the Sport model. Type A and C USB ports are now standard in the rear.
