Subaru’s core technologies identify the Subaru brand and give you the unique driving feel you can find only in a Subaru. These core systems allow Subaru vehicles to live up to its standards in performance, comfort, safety, and reliability while keeping its promise to deliver enjoyment and peace of mind to all passengers.
The Forester's hybrid system integrates a high-voltage battery and dual motors with Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. This setup continuously adjusts power in real time to maintain optimal traction, ensuring stability and control across varying conditions.
The updated Lineartronic integrates the drive motor, power generation motor, front differential, and electronically controlled coupling into a compact, high-precision design. This efficient one-package system maintains balanced weight distribution while maximising energy utilisation. The result is powerful, linear acceleration and enhanced quietness, delivering stable and reliable performance on any road.
A boxer engine, or horizontally opposed engine, features pistons that move toward each other in a horizontal direction. Subaru’s commitment to this design ensures stability and reliable performance. The hybrid system is uniquely tuned to harmonise the SUBARU BOXER engine’s balance with hybrid efficiency, delivering smooth acceleration and quiet, eco-conscious performance.
Lineartronic adjusts to any ratio in its range for smooth and stepless gear changes that keep the engine in its most efficient range for efficient and smooth acceleration, driving performance and better fuel efficiency. It comes paired with Subaru’s active torque split AWD system. Its default torque is well-balanced front to rear and adjusts in response to real-time traction conditions.
The latest technologies added to the evolved Subaru Global Platform, together with Symmetrical AWD, provide all passengers with even greater enjoyment and peace of mind. Overall driving dynamics are greatly enhanced, allowing everyone to spend an enjoyable and fulfilling time together.
A full inner frame construction and wider structural adhesive use help reduce sudden body movements while driving. A unified feel of steering and vehicle movement provide better driving dynamics and stability on any road.
EV Drive Mode powers the vehicle using only the electric motor, making it ideal for low-speed travel in residential areas. Designed to complement the hybrid system, it helps reduce emissions while offering a smooth and quiet drive.
The engine’s flat design is inherently self-balancing, generating less vibration than other engine types.
Driver Monitoring System is a state-of-the-art safety support system that utilises a dedicated camera and facial recognition software to monitor fatigue or lack of attention. It recognises up to five pre-registered drivers to provide customised driver settings for a comfortable, convenient, and personalised driving experience.
* The range of EV Drive Mode is limited and depends on vehicle conditions. In some cases, EV Drive Mode may not be available.
