About this episode
Subaru owners are a loyal bunch but to get a hybrid powertrain, the faithful had to move to a different brand. The 2025 Forester Hybrid rights that wrong. Yes, it had some help from part owner Toyota, but there's a lot of Subaru under the hood. The Boxer engine remains. So does Symmetrical all-wheel drive (because even more than love, it's what makes a Subaru a Subaru). How's the power and efficiency? Is it still a decent off roader? Tom Voelk looks at those things plus a whole lot more as he checks out a loaded top-trim Touring trim.
