After all, this vehicle is a born performer, with all of the comfort, convenience and safety backings to highlight its versatility in the small SUV segment.

    • For similar models, it all begins with cost. Over $1,200 less in MSRP than the CR-V, the Forester offers immense value as a multi-layered SUV that excels in a variety of areas.
    • Standard in symmetrical all-wheel drive across the board, the Forester is the ideal model of the two when it comes to seasonal driving. Primed to handle snowy winter days and perform at an elite level in the summer, fall and spring, the Forester provides for a controlled, stable experience behind the wheel.
    • Comfort certainly is a major factor in the Forester, with more front leg and head room than that of the CR-V. It also boasts more passenger volume to comfortably accommodate all of your guests on a fun afternoon adventure.
    • Getting the most out of every trip isn't difficult with the Forester, which boasts more fuel tank capacity than its Honda counterpart. Longer times between gas-ups is a definite plus.

    After digesting this thorough review of both models, it should now be apparent to you that the Forester knows how to live up to the hype in more ways than one. It is an inspiring option we invite you to come explore here at Suburban Subaru, where we have a talented sales team on hand to walk you through each individual model and hand you the keys for a test drive.
