Performance and Powertrain
The 2020 Subaru Forester pairs a responsive SUBARU BOXER four-cylinder engine with a smooth Lineartronic CVT for calm, predictable power in town and on the highway. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is standard on every Subaru Forester, helping you maintain stability on wet Greeley mornings, gravel detours near Fort Collins, and snow days in the foothills. The transmission’s low-speed smoothness makes stop-and-go traffic easier, while the available drive modes help tailor response for changing road conditions.
On real roads, this setup favors everyday drivability over flash, with relaxed cruising manners and confident passing when you need it. The efficient powertrain and aerodynamic design help you go farther between fill-ups on regular unleaded fuel. Whether you’re commuting along US-34 or heading up to a trailhead, the Forester’s balanced ride and surefooted grip make it a smart, low-stress companion.

The tall seating position provides excellent outward visibility when parking downtown in Greeley or merging onto Highway 85. Thoughtful storage cubbies, durable materials, and easy-to-clean surfaces match Colorado’s active lifestyles, from muddy boots to ski bags.
In back, a wide tailgate opening and low load floor make it simple to slide in a stroller, a pair of mountain bikes with wheels off, or your weekend camping bins. Fold the rear seats for a long, flat space that swallows home-improvement supplies or a dog crate.
