2026 Subaru Forester Updates

The biggest news for the 2026 Subaru Forester is the refresh of the all-terrain Wilderness trim. After its brief hiatus, the Wilderness returns more capable than ever. Key updates include:

• Elevated Off-Road Prowess: Suspension tuning is revised and increased to a substantial 9.3 inches of ground clearance, significantly more than the 8.7 inches on standard models.
• Enhanced Traction: It features a shorter final drive ratio for better low-speed off-road responsiveness, a robust transmission cooler for increased towing capacity, and larger all-terrain Yokohama GEOLANDAR® tires.
• Specialized Driving Modes: Dual-function X-MODE® is standard, featuring selectable Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud settings. Whether navigating slippery roads in Murrysville or tackling off-road terrain, you’ll benefit from superior traction and control.

All Subaru Forester trim levels feature a revised center console design with a convenient smartphone slot, larger front cupholders, and a larger center armrest storage box. Even the rear passengers benefit from improved cupholders, now large enough to hold a 32-oz water bottle—a welcome feature for avid hikers in Ligonier.
