The 2024 Subaru Forester Sport is a powerful and stylish SUV that stands out in the compact crossover segment.

Though it is just as sleek and stylish as its competitors, it has a more adventurous spirit that shines through in its design - and that is confirmed in its powertrain and other offerings. The 2024 Subaru Forester has a lot to offer on its own, but the Sport trim level takes those offerings to a new level, ensuring that the adventurers have everything they need to roam. 

The friendly associates at Granite Subaru are waiting to share more about the 2024 Subaru Forester Sport and to guide you through its options. Here is some information to help you learn more ahead of your test drive: 

Exterior Styling

The 2024 Subaru Forester is a bit of a chameleon. Not only would you look at it and expect to find it among the ranks of professionals and the heads of families, but you also wouldn't be surprised to find it traveling through some forest trail. It has a smooth and tailored profile that doesn't seem to have a line out of place. There are no garish styling elements to signify its power, and there are no overly sleek flourishes to boast its luxury. It is a thoughtfully designed SUV with every detail exactly where it needs to be.

The hexagonal grille is flanked by wing-like headlights that are surrounded by sculpted body panels. Black cladding underlines the Forester's profile, wrapping all the way around from the grille, over the wheels, and through the rear. It is also seen on the grille and under the mirrors. Chrome accents are seen throughout. 

The Forester Sport rides on upgraded 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels with a black finish, wrapped in all-season tires. Some exterior features include body-colored folding mirrors with integrated turn signals, raised roof rails, a roof spoiler, a stainless steel exhaust outlet, and a panoramic moonroof. There are also LED steering responsive headlights and LED fog lights.

The exterior of the Subaru Forester Sport is designed with both style and practicality in mind. 

Interior Styling and Comfort

The interior of the 2024 Subaru Forester Sport has a stylish design that is built for action. The dashboard and console look almost like a cockpit. There is a defined central space topped by the infotainment display and underscored by a number of controls and the shifter. Top stitching, raised pieces, and grooves in the panels all help to border and define the different areas of the console, creating a unique design and making it easier to identify controls quickly. 

The interior of the Sport trim level gets an upgrade with leather upholstery that is designed for performance. It has a unique texture that not only looks interesting but also feels good. The material is also designed to withstand stains and other damage from the everyday wear and tear of an SUV. Orange contrast stitching makes for a striking look, and it is continued from the upholstery throughout the interior cabin.

Other upgrades on the interior of the Sport include a leather-wrapped steering wheel and power-adjustable heated seats. The seats are ergonomically designed for maximum comfort, even when you are going on bumpy rides. 

The Forester Sport is designed to seat five people, and everyone will find that they have a comfortable seat with plenty of arm, leg, and head room. It has 111.6 cubic feet of passenger space, which is more than most competitors in its segment. The rear seats even recline for added comfort for rear passengers. When you need extra cargo space and don't have a full party, the rear seats also fold flat for extra room.

Whether you are planning a long road trip or are just running errands around town, you and all your passengers will find the Subaru Forester Sport comfortable and enjoyable.

Power and Performance

With an SUV built for adventure, it's important that it has the power to back it up, and the 2024 Subaru Forester Sport delivers. 

The same powertrain is offered across the board on the 2024 Forester: A 2.5-liter DOHC 16-valve flat-4 engine that puts out 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a Lineartronic continuously variable transmission with adaptive control for smooth handling. The transmission also includes a seven-speed manual mode for those who prefer feeling a bit more in control of the action when they drive. 

Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is included to provide all four wheels a little extra oomph in challenging conditions. X-Mode, hill descent control, and vehicle dynamics control all give you extra control through a variety of conditions and terrain types. The Sport also comes with performance-specific tuning for SI Drive, or Subaru Intelligent Drive, which provides an enhanced throttle response for exhilarating performance.

Additional features include a traction control system, active torque vectoring, and trailer stability assistance.

The 2024 Subaru Forester Sport can tow up to 1,500 pounds, giving you options for carrying all the gear you need on your vacations or weekend adventures. 

You'll love the way the Forester Sport drives, and you'll love the power you have to safely explore all the trails you like in any weather.
