What do auto critics like about the 2026 Subaru Forester? Critics commend its spacious and amenity-filled interior, off-road capabilities, and more. Check out the following Subaru Forester SUV reviews:
“Spaciousness is the Forester’s most noteworthy interior trait. Its upright cabin, tall windows, and panoramic sunroof allow sunshine to flood into its greenhouse by the bucketful. The first of the Forester’s two rows features aggressively bolstered seats wrapped in cloth, leather, or, in the case of the Sport and Wilderness trims, a water-repellent leatherette material. Starting with mid-level trims on up, its interior offers a good mix of materials, including a leather-wrapped gear selector and heated and ventilated front seats. A commodious back seat offers plenty of head, hip, and leg room for adults. The Forester provides up to 30 cubic feet of storage space behind the rear seats in their upright position. Fold the second-row seats down, and cargo space jumps to 75 cubic feet—more than both the Nissan Rogue and Mazda CX-50. We were able to stuff 12 carry-on suitcases into the Forester’s rear hatch with the rear seats up and 28 with the rear seats folded down during our testing.”
“After introducing an all-new Forester last year, Subaru is doubling down with the new 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness trim. It expands the Forester’s already comprehensive off-road capabilities, part of what makes the Forester such a popular choice among small SUV buyers. It also completes the model changeover that started last year, with an all-new design and the introduction of a new hybrid powertrain that adds power and improves fuel economy.”
“There’s power in knowing when not to mess up a good thing, so the fact that Subaru made a commitment to maintaining largely the same formula with the 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness as it delivered for the impressive outgoing model is commendable. As the crunchiest Forester you can buy, the new Wilderness still guarantees solid off-road performance while being even more agreeable to live with in the daily grind.”
