Subaru of America, Inc. today announced pricing on the 2022 Forester compact SUV, it’s most popular model. For 2022, the Forester introduces the rugged Forester Wilderness^™: the newest model in the Wilderness family.  The fifth-generation Forester also receives a redesigned front fascia along with new safety and convenience features.   

The 2022 Forester will be offered in six trim levels when it arrives at Subaru retailers in October: Base, Premium, Sport, all-new Wilderness, Limited, and Touring.

For 2022, Forester is the latest model to join the adventure-ready Wilderness family. The new rugged trim level combines Subaru’s renowned Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with a specially revised drivetrain, standard X-MODE, elevated 9.2-inch ground clearance, and exclusive wheels with all-terrain tires. The Forester Wilderness also offers unique and functional exterior and interior appointments.
 
The entire 2022 Forester lineup receives a bolder new look with a redesigned front fascia, grille, headlights and fog light covers, with each change element varying to match the character of each trim level.

The 2022 Forester also comes standard with the latest version of EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. The enhanced system improves overall performance and operates under a broader range of conditions thanks to a wider field of view and improved control software. For the Premium with option package, and all higher trim levels, EyeSight includes new Automatic Emergency Steering. The new feature works in conjunction with the Pre-Collision Braking System to assist with steering control to help avoid a collision at speeds less than 50 mph.

As in prior model years, all Forester models include seven airbags: driver and front passenger frontal airbags, side curtain airbags and side pelvis/torso airbags, as well as a driver’s knee airbag. Forester has been named an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety TOP SAFETY PICK+ for 3 years running (2019–2021).

Forester’s legendary versatility is also improved for 2022 with a new ladder-type roof rail design.  The improved rail system offers a higher dynamic load capacity (220 lb. vs. 176 lb.) and an 800-lb static load limit (vs. 700 lb.), allowing safe use of a roof-top tent. Helpful tie-down locations have also been integrated into the rails. 

Inside, two additional utility hooks have been added to the roof of the rear cargo area and a brighter LED interior dome lamp with off-delay is now standard. 

All Forester models are powered by a 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER^® engine teamed with a Lineartronic^® CVT and Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. The direct-injection engine produces 182 hp and 176 lb-ft of torque. The Forester is a highly efficient SUV, delivering up to 33 mpg EPA-estimated highway fuel economy. The compact SUV also offers up to 3,000-lb. towing capacity and features standard Trailer Stability Assist.

Exclusive chassis suspension components give the 2022 Forester Wilderness 9.2-inch ground clearance, a half-inch increase over the other Forester models, which already had among the highest in their segment.

The Forester Wilderness comes equipped with Yokohama GEOLANDAR^® all-terrain tires for increased traction on muddy or gravel roads.  Mounted on exclusive 17-inch alloy wheels in matte black finish, the tires are embossed with raised white letters. A standard full-size tire is stored under the cargo the area, giving owners confidence while on the trails.

To visually communicate the more capable off-road performance, the Forester Wilderness adds exclusive styling with all-new front fascia with bold hexagonal front grille, larger wheel arch cladding, front skid plate, unique hexagonal LED fog lights and an anti-glare hood decal in matte-black finish.

Numerous exterior and interior details, including water resistant StarTex^® seating surfaces, make the Forester Wilderness especially suited to carrying outdoors gear, even when wet or muddy.

La Outback in questo allestimento l'ho trovata fighissima, questa invece ha qualche vibes di allestimento basone "povery" coi paraurti grezzi. Boh, probabilmente ho qualche problema io 😅 

 

Ovviamente questo è un giudizio relativo solo all'estetica della macchina, che meccanicamente immagino non sia niente male come quasi tutte le Subaru.

Non riesco proprio a capire queste versioni suv dei suv. E' come quando una tettona si rifà le tette e passa dalla sesta alla nona... 🤣

Ahimé questa generazione di Forester è nata male ed è invecchiata anche peggio.

Quindi secondo me nessun intervento riesce a renderle grazia.

A me non dispiace, non sarà bellissima ma c'è di peggio in giro, è proprio questo allestimento che non mi convince del tutto (almeno in queste due foto eh, magari dal vivo è un'altra cosa).

A me me piace
