New Technology in the 2025 Subaru Forester

It is an exciting year for people inside the 2025 Subaru Forester, especially if you love new technology. Getting into some of the exciting upgrades for 2025, you will notice a larger display/touchscreen, enhanced EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, and a 360-degree view camera, to name a few. Subaru has prioritized the technology in its lineup, with the Forester receiving several updates this year. These are only some things we receive as part of the Forester overhaul, so stick around to learn more. Let's dive in!

Touchscreen Size Improvements

Although your standard 2025 Subaru Forester touchscreen remains a dual 7-inch setup, the new and improved SUBARU STARLINK 11.6-inch Multimedia Plus system is available. This will be the first time this size screen is an option for the Forester release, plus it's equipped with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto with full-screen display. That is a huge perk for drivers in higher-trim (non-Base) models.

What changed: The 11.6-inch SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia system is available on higher Forester trims.

EyeSight Driver Assist Technology Updates

Another enhancement to the new technology in the 2025 Subaru Forester is the upgrade to EyeSight Driver Assist. Foresters can better detect cyclists and pedestrians, apply emergency braking, and enhance all-around situational awareness while parking. These advancements will help to make a safe car even safer while you drive and park, which is perfect for all-age drivers behind the wheel.

What changed: Advanced EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology standard on all trims with better operating speed and precision.

Debut of Hands-Free Power Rear Gate

If you have ever had full hands and had to open your trunk to no avail, the new technology inside the 2025 Subaru Forester will be helpful. For this latest release, you see the debut of the kick sensor-activated Hands-Free Power Rear Gate. This works by swinging your foot under the rear bumper, which activates the trunk to open for you. It's super convenient!

What changed: Subaru debuted a hands-free, kick sensor-activated liftgate function to the 2025 Forester SUV.

360-degree Surround View Monitor

As part of the broader EyeSight package update for 2025, you now get the available 360-degree Surround View Monitor. This provides Forester drivers with a top-down view of the vehicle's surroundings. This is super helpful for all-terrain driving, inclement weather, and if you're curious to see what is going on above, around, and below your SUV.

What changed: Subaru introduced a 360-degree camera to the 2025 Forester.
