Cutting-Edge Safety Technology
Subaru has always prioritized safety, and the new Forester pushes boundaries even further. Drivers in Cuyahoga Falls and throughout the Akron, OH, area will appreciate the addition of new active safety features like automatic emergency braking, lane departure prevention, and adaptive cruise control. These intelligent systems help prevent collisions and accidents by automatically braking, keeping you centered in your lane, and maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles.
The 2025 Forester also introduces Subaru's new DriverFocus® Distraction Mitigation System, which uses facial recognition technology to monitor whether the driver is paying attention to the road. If the system detects drowsiness or distraction, it provides an alert to help keep the driver focused. Subaru has also enhanced the rear seat reminder system to help prevent accidentally leaving a child or pet trapped in the vehicle.
Cutting-Edge Technology
In terms of technology, the new Forester comes loaded with up-to-date tech and connectivity features. The SUBARU STARLINK® 11.6-inch touchscreen is the largest ever offered in a Forester, providing vibrant visuals and easy access to navigation, media, and vehicle settings. The Forester also adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration so you can easily connect your smartphone while on the go around Stow and Hudson.
For audiophiles, higher trims gain an available premium Harman Kardon sound system with 12 speakers for exceptional audio quality. You'll also find multiple USB ports, an available Wi-Fi hotspot, and an upgraded rear seat entertainment system to keep all passengers entertained on long road trips.
Improved Performance
While full performance details remain under wraps, Subaru has confirmed that the 2025 Forester will offer an upgraded direct-injection turbocharged engine option. This promises to deliver increased responsiveness and power over the previous model. Subaru's renowned symmetrical all-wheel drive system also receives enhancements to further improve traction and stability across all road conditions and weather.
In addition, Subaru is introducing a new X-MODE® with Hill Descent Control for added capability when driving on steep inclines or slippery surfaces. Upgrades to the suspension and steering system also aim to provide a smoother and more engaging driving experience.
Interior Refinements for Comfort
Complementing the performance and tech upgrades, Subaru has also focused on optimizing interior comfort in the 2025 Forester. Front and rear seat cushions are redesigned to provide more support and reduce fatigue over long distances. For convenience, rear seat climate control vents allow backseat passengers to dial in their preferred temperature.
Available luxurious leather upholstery on higher trims and new ambient lighting options create a relaxing vibe inside the cabin. The cargo area gains enhanced tie-down points and underfloor storage compartments to keep your gear secure and organized on adventures. With all these great changes, the 2025 Forester is sure to be a hit with families and outdoor enthusiasts in Akron, Hudson, Stow and beyond.
