Whether tackling weekday errands in Lafayette or a weekend adventure in Broussard, the new Forester is ready for action.

The 2025 Subaru Forester sports refreshed exterior styling that gives it a rugged yet refined appearance. The front fascia features a more pronounced grille flanked by sleek LED headlights. Sculpted body lines and pronounced wheel arches add to its athletic stance. With 8.7 inches of ground clearance and standard all-wheel drive, the Forester is at home both on the pavement and off the beaten path.

Subaru offers the 2025 Forester in five well-equipped trim levels: Base, Premium, Sport, Limited and Touring. Even the entry-level model comes standard with desirable amenities like automatic climate control, a rear vision camera, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Moving up the range adds comforts like a power-adjustable driver's seat, heated front seats, leather upholstery and a panoramic moonroof.

No matter which Forester you choose, you'll get spirited and efficient performance. All models are powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder BOXER engine producing 182 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque. The engine pairs with a Lineartronic CVT automatic transmission and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for confident traction in all conditions. The Forester returns an impressive 33 MPG highway and 29 MPG combined fuel economy.
