Thank you for your review of the '25 Forester Touring. An eye opener for me at least in that all the upgrades over the lower Limited and Sport trims don't justify shelling out over 40 grand. You're right that the Limited and and Sport Foresters look better that the Touring. As for the analog tach and speedometer, I difer with you as I prefer them over the digital display. It's disappointing to hear that the features on the infotaintment system are laggy. I happen to have the same infotaintment screen on my '24 Crosstreck and its feaures don't lag at all. I have the 2.5 litter 182 hp motor and is peppy. The Forester your review comes with a 180 hp engine which for a vehicle heavier than mine, it should have more horespower. In regard to its looks, it's reminicent of an Explorer/CRV. Good review.
I am in Alaska and I would be interested in some kind of heater info. How quickly does the car heat up from a certain temp. Likewise how fast does a car cool down with the air conditioning. I’ve never seen any kind of testing like that. Maybe it’s not possible…
HELP! Seat material (suede part) might be a dealbreaker on my touring purchase. I just saw it today on the car I have on hold. It looks like any wear and tear will show quickly. Real quickly.
the awd badge on the back is for aerodynamic reasons
They're pricing it like the higher trims of the Outback. The only thing is that the higher trims of the Outback get a turbo engine.

Can I get the sport with ventilation seats?
Someone has his wedding ring back on! Great video
I tried the screen and it wasn’t lagging at all. But I will test it again
In general I like it but please put thr 2.4 turbo engine in it.
Pls
You're crazy if you think people are gonna pay 42K and if they do. There's something wrong with them.
Bro, the upper-middle class in Colorado, Washington State and Oregon would pay $75k for this.
Did they get rid of the auto off engine or at least turn the darn thing off!
No, but there is a button right on the Home Screen so you can disable it for the drive
Unfortunately, standard all makes/brands 2025 🤨
Totally agree! Freaking annoying...
Wish there was a Turbo option. Like the Outback.
You and me both 😵💫
