2022 Subaru Forester consumer reviews

I Love everything from the experience of buying the car from Ian at Kenny Ross Subaru and driving my new Forester! It gets great gas mileage and is super comfortable on quick trips around town and long road trips!

Got this vehicle in February '22, traded in with my '14 Forester Premium. After having my '14 Forester which had the best visibility and smoothest drive of any car I have owned, I had no interest in pursuing any other vehicle. Overall I love it, but one key note I have for the 2022 is the performance and MPG difference between cold and warm weather. I'm from Ohio and have had plenty of cold Winter days and some nice, warm Spring days driving the vehicle. In the cold, driving performance and MPG are noticeably worse. It drives a bit sluggishly, especially in the first ten minutes or so until it warms up. I frequently used the sport mode to compensate for it's performance. On cold days, my MPG was averaging at about 22... However, when the weather was warm, I was getting closer to 35 MPG (this is a 25 mile highway commute to work). And in warm weather the car drives and rides like a dream, truly my favorite of any vehicle I have driven. Besides those two negatives that I noticed, I've been extremely happy with my Forester. Most of the time it moves like butter and is super fun to drive, just like my 2014. So far, here is my experience with the 2022 Subaru Forester Premium: Pros - Fantastic visibility - Spacious and high quality interior, back seat guests have commented on how comfortable and roomy it is - Moonroof is a huge plus and makes the car feel like a big glass house (passengers have also commented on that) - Easy, intuitive infotainment system with Apple Car Play - Responsive performance and amazingly smooth ride (except some cold days, see above) - Super cool updated exterior and beautiful color (I have Cascade Green Silica) Cons - Winter MPG (see above) - Seats are a bit stiff, can be tough for long rides - Standard sound system is underwhelming

I bought a new 2022 Forester Wilderness. Love it! There is not one thing I do not like about this car. I got the Autumn green color. It drives smooth. Plenty of cargo space. We added a trailer hitch and cross bars for our Thule. Gas mileage is good. Seats are extremely comfortable. Has the panoramic sunroof/moonroof. Eye site, lane control (took a min to get used to) all the bells and whistles.

This is the second Forester Sport I own 2019 and now 2022. Love the comfort, features and everything else about the Sport. I drive in a lot of snow and the forester cuts through it without second thought. The overall comfort is top notch. Would I like more features like duel climate control and duel power seats, yes. But it still wouldn’t change my decision on the model I went with. The Forester Sport has the look and feel of a car I will keep returning to.
