We encourage you to visit Granite Subaru today to take a test drive of the new Forester Limited. We're certain that you'll fall in love with this great SUV. Here's a closer look at what it has to offer:

Exterior Styling and Features

The 2025 Subaru Forester Limited has substantial presence on the road. It doesn't have to be loud and flashy to get noticed. It has an understated elegance that says that it knows its own worth. It is reserved yet commanding, practical yet demure.

The profile of the Subaru Forester Limited strikes the right balance so that it is not too boxy yet not so aerodynamic as to look futuristic and avant garde. There's an angular underlayer that is smoothed out with rounded edges. The grille merges with the headlights in seemingly one unit, creating an impressive front end but without becoming overwhelming. Black cladding is seen throughout the profile as an underscore to some element of the body, such as the doors and windows. Meanwhile, metallic accents add visual appeal throughout.

Exterior upgrades that are only available on the Limited trim level include 18-inch dark metallic aluminum alloy wheels with machine finish, wrapped in all-season tires. There are also dark gray finish folding side mirrors (only found on the Premium trim level outside of the Limited). The panoramic moonroof gives you a clear view of the gorgeous night sky.

Interior Styling and Capacity

The interior of the 2025 Subaru Forester Limited is similarly tailored to the outside. It doesn't have an ornate or complicated design. It does have a simple yet elegant design that elevates the interior and creates an inviting atmosphere.

The center console features a vertically aligned infotainment display, flanked by air vents and control knobs. The interior features two-toned accents, depending on the options you select. There are fine lines and grooves throughout the dash and the rest of the interior, but they work together in harmony rather than overwhelming, like they can in other models. The ergonomically designed seating is wrapped in leather-trimmed upholstery and features elegant top stitching.

Passengers will find that they have plenty of room to stretch in the Forester Limited. In the front seat, there is 40 inches of head room, 43.3 inches of legroom, and 57.7 inches of shoulder room. Meanwhile, the rear seat passengers get 37.7 inches of head room, 39.4 inches of legroom, and 56.7 inches of shoulder room. Overall, there is 106.6 cubic feet of passenger space and seating for up to five people.

Seating is made more comfortable by the heated front seats and the reclining rear seatbacks. The driver's seat is 10-way power adjustable, while the front passenger's seat is 8-way power adjustable. Other interior upgrades include a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel.

In addition to the many options for storage space throughout the cabin, such as cup and bottle holders, a sunglass case, seat backs, and other compartments, you'll get 27.5 cubic feet of cargo space in the rear. The second-row seats have a 60/40 split to give you some flexibility for carrying larger items while you still have passengers. However, you can also fold the rear seats with one touch of a button, expanding your cargo space to 69.1 cubic feet. There's also a grocery area in the rear with tie-down hooks for your convenience.

 

Power and Performance

The 2025 Subaru Forester Limited is not just a pretty face. It offers the power you need to explore off the beaten trail or just to maneuver rough traffic on your daily commute.

The Forester Limited comes with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder DOHC engine that puts out 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with a Lineartronic continuously variable transmission that on the Limited is upgraded with an eight-speed manual mode, allowing drivers to feel more in control when they take on challenging conditions.

Subaru Intelligent Drive is standard across Forester trim levels. It helps to fine tune the electronically controlled throttle and regulates the engine and transmission control units, giving you the response you need when you are facing poor weather conditions, muddy roads, or other tough terrain. The Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is also standard across Forester trim levels, giving you even greater control over driving conditions.

Additional driving aids like hill-descent control, vehicle dynamics control, active torque vectoring, and trailer stability assist give you even more control over your driving experience across conditions. The X Mode includes adjustments for deep snow and mud, as well.

The maximum towing capacity on the Forester Limited is 1,500 pounds, giving you the option to carry just about whatever gear you may need on your excursions.

Fuel economy is estimated at 32 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway, helping you to keep your fuel costs low and feel better about the impact you are making on the environment.
