Compare Subaru Forester with similar competitors. The best subaru crossover: characteristics and comparison with competitors. Comparison XV and New Forester

Subaru Forester.
2.5 l (171 hp) CVT
Price: 1 590 000 rub.

Subaru Forester of the current generation, one of the particularly popular specimens in the crossover market, has become very ambitious. On the one hand, he became similar to many "classmates", on the other hand, acquired many new useful qualities, not confused by old, and even improving them. Is it really so good in comparison with other representatives of this already very numerous class: Chevrolet Captiva, Mitsubishi Outlander, Land Rover Freelander and Nissan X-Trail? Let's see how much the ambitions of the Lesnik correspond to the reality and expectations of potential buyers.

Chevrolet Captiva.	Mitsubishi Outlander.	Land Rover Freelander.	Nissan X-Trail

In general ranking ORD Subaru Forester for many "classmates" simply inseparable. With the amount of 79.4 points, it stands at the 20th position, which is an exceptional case for its class crossover. He left far at the bottom of the leader of one of our past Mitsubishi Outlander reviews, occupying only 43rd. All other participants in this review on the total amount of points could not even approach our leader. Among the main trumps Forester - estimates for the first nomination. These are the size of the cabin, and ergonomic advantages, and a good set of options. Off-road qualities also brought a high score "forester".

Body, Ergonomics and Comfort
Leader - Subaru Forester

In this nomination, Subaru Forester practically does not know equal among the review participants. The driver's seat and the driver brought him the highest marks from the whole five. I did not spoil the picture even a low score for the trunk. For most other parameters, Forester also surpasses rivals on the review. A good separation from competitors give points received for the options. Excellence in a few tenth points brought and evaluating management, devices and climate control. In the light and visibility with Forester, only Mitsubishi Outlander can be sought, which, as well as the Lesnik, scored 4.1 points in this discipline. Well, far from the best materials of the salon did not have a significant effect on the state of affairs.

Off-road qualities
Leader - Subaru Forester

Over high-road qualities of Subaru Forester, the creators were worked out. This is evidenced by the leading position in our review with an estimate of 13.2 points. The nearest five points from our selected five is Land Rover Freelander. According to articulation, however, the main hero of our review gave way to all the other four crossovers. Interestingly, the full dimension of the wheels from the "Forester" is the worst of the whole five. Forester is also protected by the best way. Here, three participants beat him: Land Rover Freelander, Mitsubishi Outlander and Nissan X-Trail. But estimates for corners, lumens and transmission overlap all the shortcomings.

Expeditionary qualities
Leader - Mitsubishi Outlander

In the nomination "Expeditionary qualities" Subaru Forester - the penultimate in the review. It would seem that most estimates are at the level of the submitted Odnoklassniki. Best handling, second place for acceleration dynamics. Riding comfort at the leader level. Not bad and fuel consumption. But still there are two parameters that determined the state of affairs in this nomination: the smallest load capacity among the reviews and a low score for the spare wheel. As a result, Forester is satisfied with the amount of 16.5 points, bypassing in this nomination only an outsider Chevrolet Captiva.

An impressive and luxurious Forester is the most popular model in the Subaru assortment. Facts speak for themselves - since 2011, sales of the new Subaru Forester exceeded 30% of the volume of all brand cars sold. The massive body of this SUV boldly stands out on Russian roads, and not only on the roads - the car shows itself on off-road and in places where the other crossover is unlikely to fall.

Since its first appearance in the international market in 1995, the model survived 4 significant updates. Specifications and appearance of the crossover became increasingly perfect, until they reached the modern level. Now the International Automotive Market is sold by the SUBARU Forester SJ 2012 model. The manufacturer decided that for the release of 5 generation is still too early, but minor updates in 2016 still made. Once again, we will go through the main characteristics of the crossover and will result in change.

Thorough basic equipment

The manufacturer did not affect the basic characteristics of the model. All the same permanent four-wheel drive, which has a symmetric location. Thanks to such a system, the perfect balance of the mass of the car is observed, which transmits each wheel the same degree of load.

The dimensions of the model remained the same:

• Length 4595 mm.
• Width 1780 mm.
• Height 1732 mm.
• Wheel base 2640 mm.
• Mass 1495 kg.

All the same functions of the dynamic stabilization system and the function of anti-poles that are automatically triggered are operational. For road off-road there is a X-MODE system, which operates at speeds of up to 46 km. It clamps the variator and allows the car engine to dose craving, besides it allows you to quickly overcome obstacles. The basic model of the new Forester is equipped with a heated rear view mirrors, windshield and rear glasses.

Combination of familiar classics and new technologies

The classic horizontal opposite engine, current for all Subaru machines, remained the same. Subaru Forester 2017 is offered with three types of engines:

1. Atmospheric 2.0 with a capacity of 150 hp
2. Atmospheric engine 2.5 liters - 171 hp
3. Powerful turbo engine with fuel injection function, developing power 241 hp

For years, a proven four-cylinder engine manufacturer has retained unchanged. Along with the mechanical gearbox, which, of course, has its own fans, the configuration with the chain variator has been added. To facilitate his work, a transmission control unit has been implemented that controls the gas pedal.

The intake manifold is modified - the valve is added in the configuration of the new crossover, thanks to which the vertical vortex generator is triggered. Such a system has favorably affects the environment, reducing the harmfulness of exhausts - it thoroughly mixes the mixture of fuel and air before launching and warming the motor at idle.

Appearance

Above the exterior of the SUV manufacturer has worked, almost imperceptibly walking along the body. Updated Subaru Forester 2017 now looks like this:

• The front part decorates a new sports bumper and a stylish radiator grille with large cells.
• Updated headlights instead of obsolete light bulbs "Gallogen-xenon". In the updated configuration, a linated optics appears, supplemented by LED lamps of near and far light. Added automatic headlight washer.
• The innovative feature of the Steering Responsive Headlight, which allows you to adjust the direction of the beam of light, and rotate the headlights on the entry into the turn. If the system is inappropriate, the system is turned off by pressing the button to the left of the steering wheel.
• The body now drops bronze - the manufacturer decided to update his brainchild a noble shade of Sepia Bronze.
• In the design of the rear bumper, changes are a bit - new LED lights appeared. A version with the turbo engine from the back can be found in two exhaust pipes.

What is inside?

New Subaru Forester 2017 retained his stylish and functional interior. The manufacturer only slightly corrected important elements:

• New stronger steering wheel. Now it is heated not only in improved models, but also in the basic configuration. Moreover, now the steering booster works and when the engine is turned off, and only turns off after the ignition key turns.
• Updated dashboard and decor elements. The top display of the new crossover is processed by a soft finish, decorative elements on the door and in the center console made more stylish. Inserts on the handles of the front doors were replaced by non-slip.
• The passenger door windows is now working in automatic mode.
• Heated all seats, including rear.

Configuration and prices

The basic cost Subaru Forester 2017 fell, and is now 1,699,000 rubles. The new car is offered in several sets, each of them repeats the functions of previous models, and has improved. For them, the following prices are valid:

1. Standard version - 1,799,000 rubles. To the base model of the car added adjustment of the driver's seat with electric drive and adjustable rear armchairs.
2. COMFORT - 1 859 900 rub. Dual-mode SI-Drive Intelligent Drive System, Casting Side Mirrors, Skin Steer and Cruise Control, Heated Armchairs, Rear View Camera.
3. S Limited - 2 009 900 rub. The previous version has been added to the headlight redirection system when turning, chrome frames for fog and shift buttons under the steering wheel.
4. Comfort + - 2 009 900 rub. Toned rear windows, LED Overall lights, System without a key and navigation system.
5. Elegance - 2 189 900 rub. Added rotation repeater in lateral mirrors and system adjustment system for rear suspension.

7. Premium - 2 599 900 rub. Triple Si-Drive system, panoramic sunroof, rain and light sensor, large color display.

In recent years, more and more crossovers are trying on "glamorous robes", even Malomal opportunities for the conquest of off-road and turning into typical city inhabitants. On their background, the Forester Fourth Generation, which for many years she tried not to change its traditions - "Men's" appearance and extremely four-wheel drive.

The World Debut of Forester fourth generation took place in 2012 on the stage of the car dealership in Los Angeles, and in front of the European public he appeared in all its glory in March 2013 on loafs in Geneva.

Two years later, everything is there in Los Angeles, the Japanese from Subaru presented an updated crossover, who, without changing outwardly, acquired small improvements in the cabin, pulled up in terms of security and lost "mechanics" (for the Russian market).

The second modernization of Forester IV survived in May 2016 - this time the bumpers, optics and a radiator lattice were slightly corrected, improved sound insulation, expanded the list of available equipment and returned (for our country) a "manual" gearbox.

The next, extreme to date, the update has affected the car in September 2017 - this time the Japanese went around the design of the exterior and interior, but again separated its inaccessible options before the options and added new levels of execution.

In general, it can be said that the "fourth" Subaru Forester is decorated in a nonsense and deliberately coarse style that gives him an errorless recognition against the background of other models. Most of the design sizes are concentrated around the "face" part: a radiator grille with the company "six faces" and "sharp" headlights with LED supplying of running lights that are supplemented by a bumper with a conventional or "sports" design with characteristic "balls" from the fog.

Forester's profile demonstrates muscular and solid proportions with "bloated" arches of wheels that fit the alloy wheels with a dimension of 17-18 inches, prescribing the sidewall to the edge and a large area of \u200b\u200bglazing.

The monumental feed of this southener Subaru is framed in typical concept crossovers - compact lights, characteristic trunk lid and bumper, in which one or two exhaust system pipe is integrated depending on the version.

The 4th generation model formally performs in the segment of compact crossovers (although it actually approached "medium-size"): 4610 mm in length, 1795 mm wide and 1735 mm in height. The length of the wheelbase consists of 2640 mm, and the minimum road clearance (with the cutting mass) is 220 mm.

In a hiking state, the weight of this car varies from 1551 to 1702 kilograms.

The interior Subaru Forester is pleased with the exquisite - everything is quite ascetic and simply, but located "in its places" and is qualitatively executed. In general, the decoration of this "Japanese" can be described as "the embodiment of reasonable sufficiency."

The combination of devices with analog scales is well read and provides only the necessary information, and the multifunctional steering wheel of the correct form is convenient and sympathetic. The central part of the front panel is crowned with a color monitor, which shows the readings of the side computer and information about the operation of the all-wheel drive transmission. Slightly below, depending on the configuration, you can observe the radio, or a large display of the multimedia center, as well as three "lamb" of a two-zone climate installation.

In the cabin of this crossover, there is neither high cost, nor frank cheap - the materials of the finishes, inexpensive, but high-quality, and the level of assembly is also at all in the high "European" level. In the "top" versions for seats, the upholstery of genuine leather is provided.

One of the features of the Subaru Forester of the 4th generation is a competently organized internal space. The front armors are not simply endowed with a convenient profile with well-pronounced support on the sides, but also necessary adjustment ranges. For passengers of the rear row, a comfortable sofa was installed with an adjustable angle of the back, a folding armrest and a solid margin of space in all directions. The disadvantage is only one - repellent transmission tunnel on the floor.

For the transport of goods "Fourth Forester" provides a 488-liter luggage compartment of the correct form, wide opening and acceptable loading height. The "gallery" is stacked almost in the floor, which increases the useful volume to 1548 liters and allows transporting large-sized items. In the niche, under the floor, only a compact spare wheel was able to accommodate.

Russian consumers updated in 2017 Subaru Forester 4th embodiments are offered with three gasoline four-cylinder units with horizontal-opposite configuration "Gorshkov" and DOHC GDM with a 16-valve scheme. In collaboration with each of them, a full drive system is functioning with a dynamic distribution of thrust (ACT), which has a multi-disc coupling controlled electronics in its arsenal. By default, the moment is divided between the axes in the ratio of 60:40, however, depending on the situation, this proportion may vary.

• Under the hood of the basic versions of the crossover "registered" 2.0-liter atmospheric motor (1995 cubic centimeters) with multipoint power generating 150 "mares" at 6,200 rpm and 198 nm of possible potential at 4200 rpm.
  In place with 6-speed "mechanics" or a Lineartronic wedge variator, it allows "Foretera" to gain 100 km / h after 10.6-11.8 seconds, to minimize 190-192 km / h and "eat" no more than 8-8.2 fuel liters in " City / Route.
• Behind him, the hierarchy should be "atmospheric" at 2.5 liters (2498 cubic centimeters) with distributed injection, peak performance of the performance in which there are 171 horsepower at 5800 rpm and 235 n m of the torque at 4100 rpm.
  In combination with it, only the variator is installed, due to which the machine breaks up to 100 km / h, it conquers a bar in 197 km / h and consumes 8.3 liters of gasoline during mixed conditions.
• The vertex of the power palette "occupied" 2.0-liter "four" (1998 cubic centimeters) with turbocharging and direct fuel supply (outstanding 241 "horses" at 5600 rpm and 350 minutes of limit moment at 2400-3600 rev / min) - aggregative With Lineartronic Transmission.
  At the "race" to the first "hundred", such a sacrifice takes only 7.5 seconds, his "maximum speed" translates over 220 km / h, and the "appetite" does not go beyond 8.5 liters in the combined cycle.

At the heart of the fourth generation crossover lies a modified Subaru Impreza platform with MacPherson racks on the front axle and a multi-dimensional part on the rear axle. The Subaru Forester is equipped with an electric steering amplifier and an efficient brake system with disk devices on all wheels (on the front with ventilation) with ABS and ESP.

In the Russian market, Forester 2018 model year is offered in eight levels of equipment - "Base", "Standard", "Comfort", "Comfort +", "S Limited", "Elegance", "Elegance +" and "Premium".

For the basic package, the dealers are minimally requested by 1,659,000 rubles, and its functionality includes: seven airbags, four power windows, ABS, EBD, BA, VDC, starting system at the mount, ERA-GLONASS technology, 17-inch steel wheels, Heated front armchairs, climate control, multimedia complex and some other equipment.
The crossover with automatic transmission will have to lay out from 1,749,900 rubles, and the "top modification" with a 241-strong engine is sold at least 2,599,900 rubles. "Full minced" can boast: 18 inches alloy discs, LED headlights, electric shoes, leather trim, heated rear seats, double-zone "climate", rear-view cameras, light and rain sensors, navigator and a huge number of other "lotions" .

Forester 2007 2.0 transmissions - Waists of off-road qualities

Good all the time of day!
We constantly attend this forum, more as a reader. But it appeared a reason to write.
I thought for a long time, in which section to create the topic. I decided that all the same in the reports, because although there is a comparison with another car, but more questions on the technical features of Forestera as such, and not what it is worse or better than others.
Ride tonight with a friend in nature (Moscow region - about 40 km from the Moscow Ring Road) - Snow-covered fields, snowy and ice slides - shorter everything you need to find out whose four-wheel drive is cooler 🙂
So, in stock:
1) I have - Forester 2.0 MCPP + RFAYAKA 2007
2) Friend - ALLROAD 2.7T MCPP + RFAYA (I do not remember the previous model).
In the fields (there is snow of about 15-20 cm, a rather dense, with an ice crust above and below) both cars behave like, passing everywhere normally, without hints of jams, row by all four (in short, almost like asphalt).
On the snow slopes - here Audi is already breaking into leaders. Whether due to the greater weight (and accordingly, larger inertia) - it goes better by the slide, or due to the same weight, it is better than the snow presses even the solid layer, or due to the more powerful and tragmenting engine. But in short, there was a couple of slides, which Audi, with difficulty, but overcame, and I, no matter how hard I could not. Moreover, one of them was with a winding lift of degrees in 25-30, which ended with 40-45 degree final meters by 5 (i.e., the reserve for overclocking in front of him was very small). Here I didn't have a chance. If the whole lift I passed normally, then this last segment was removed no more than half. And Audi, although with great difficulty, although not always the first time, but climbed. Clarification about the laying - we periodically sat down in the car of each other (everything was done equally) and the friend just sat behind the wheel of my Forestera - a few attempts - the result is zero. And also, in Audi you sit and feel that we row all the wheels (I do not know how the cerebeller chtoli), and there is no such feeling in Forestere.
Now, from sensations to observations - at the next unsuccessful attempt to rolling on Forester back - I decided to turn around on a snowy slope, and stuck. I sit - the gas - I stand in place, and a friend and says that I only have the rear wheels rotate (only now I understand that this is theoretically impossible). I turn on the back and go.
Further more interesting. We decided on the late ride on the ice hill (degrees 25-35, with hilly). On her, children on icecakes ride in the afternoon. Both cars go there - here normally pass. Forester even behaves better if when lifting in the middle stop and then move and get to the end (row all four, no uncertainty (good tires are good - Haka 5th).
And then we decided to find the place on these Klolmikov, where you can post a diagonal. I think that I have everything cool - two diefes with self-blocking and here I will imitate the Audyushny blocking. Found ...... and what was my disappointment !!! I approach the place (one wheel hangs, the other diagonally has a very weak hook, a small bias back), I stop. I turn on the first, let go of the clutch - the car twists with two wheels and stands on the spot, add gas - the result is the same !!! Where there is a praised self-locking rear diop ... I really didn't twist a long time - I still feel sorry for the car, I turn on the back and go. Audi is all the same, but with a strong gas you can see the lock and the machine gets short-lived moment on the wheels that stand on Earth, then this moment disappears, but it is enough for popping out of this place. Several approaches - the results are the same. Further thinking can have Foreter's back better get up of these pits to leave. But no back is the same.
And then I had a few questions to lovers of off-road cuffs, full-wheel drive connoisseurs and of course to the service (Pleiad). And I realized that I can find them all and you can immediately only on this forum!
1) Could the car stand and row only 2 rear wheels?
2) why the rear diph was not blocked. With diagonal hanging?
3) May I have something wrong (it seems to be analyzing this forum, it believed that from Subar possess the most off-road version - according to the presence of reinstate, self-locking 2 differences and the most honest full drive)?
4) If still, is this marriage of my sample, then what should I do with it? Considering that the car on the warranty and recently honestly passed then 30000 in the service?
PS: in spite of everything I like the car, and I have been almost a year for almost a year, I catch myself thinking every day that I am a pleasure from her driving. Despite its asceticism and seeming noncains (it is practically like IBM among laptops - not the cheapest black brick - but how comfortable and pleasantly use it daily). I ask me forgive me for forgiveness of other laptop stamps 🙂
I add video (sorry for quality).
http://ru.youtube.com/watch?v\u003djysjrlbigme

Hyundai Tucson was opposed to the fronds, which was able to beat Ford last year, and updated by the previous spring Subaru Forester.

All three are all-wheel drive, two-winged, with 150-strong gasoline engines. Chances of winning are equal.

Flickering star

If there were competitions on the frequency of modernization between cars, the first place, beyond any doubt, would get Forestra. Debuting in 2012, he hardly in every season approxes new clothes. So last spring: I purchased a changed radiator grille and front bumper, as well as adaptive LED headlights, glittering to become the stars on the emblem.

But when will they change the ignition key? Old Testament, without miscarriage ... so do not put this on the bar.

Curved in the Pooh and Prah, Mikhail Kuleshov in a two-year-old test, a multimedia system was dismissed. The Subaru Starlink module with a 7-inch screen has a friendly interface, and now there are no problems with connecting the smartphone via Bluetooth. But in the car price under two million discouraged. From the same opera - a small monochrome display on the instrument panel.

Amazing business: The Forester's wheel base is the shortest in Trio, but the second row is the most spacious. But miracles do not happen, what is once again convinced, looking into the trunk: it is the most modest in the test trip.

The motor does not freeze on some revolutions and, accordingly, does not pushing the guilty.

But it is difficult to not pay attention to insufficient sound insulation of the wheel arches. We drive around the pool, and in the cabin there is such a murmur, as if the car beats a watering unit. Do not all good - if you ignore the biff pendants. But for excellent energy intensity, it can be forgiven everything. Whatever pits none, no matter how "the police officer" goes under the wheels, any obstacle overcomes with complete inhaburability. Almost Mercedesian smoothness!

The controllability of Subaru is far from racing claims. Easy and almost devoid of "zero" The steering wheel disobeds with the car, which in high speeds wakes up along the trajectory. In turns, Forester overtakes without much enthusiasm. The shutdown button of the stabilization system only moves the threshold of its intervention, and to lose weight on the "coming" section of the winter road, the launching machine into controlled slides will fail.

But where "forester" showed himself in all its glory, so it is outside asphalt. The main thing is not to forget to turn on the X-MODE mode (active up to 45 km / h). The reactions to the opening of the throttle are dulled in it, the variator changes the gear ratio (mimics the inclusion of the pole), the electronics, if necessary, uses an assistent assistee from the mountain. A good help - 205 millimeters of the road lumen and durable metal crankcase protection. "Forick" is rushing forward with the perseverance of the rhino, punching the rut for the trail of Tussan and Kuga.

Mysterious car This Forester. Captivates the spacious interior and excellent permeability, but it seems to a stupor archaisms like an antedilular ignition key and multimediasystem without navigator. In the car for two million such flaws should not be. Will we wait for the next micromodernation?

Subaru is a Japanese car manufacturer. The company is one of the strongest players in the market crossovers and SUVs. By many experts, all-wheel drive vehicles of Japanese production are called the best in the world. Any car company can challenge the most productive SUVs of its price segment for such parameters as reliability and permeability. The model range of Subaru crossovers consists of 3 vehicles:

1. Forester.
2. Outback.

But already in 2018, he will be replenished with the fourth model - Subaru Ascent. In mid-April 2017, concept car was presented on the New York Motor Show. At the moment, a little known about the new vehicle Subaru. The Japanese manufacturer stated that Ascent would get a new 2,4-liter engine.

A distinctive feature of each car is considered practicality. All of them are able to surprise even the most demanding motorists comfort and pleasant to the buyer a combination of price and quality.

Forester.

Subaru Forester is a Japanese crossover who was first released in 1995. In 1997, the car was first presented at the exhibition in Detroit. More than the first photo of the Subaru crossover, many experts had the opinion that this vehicle was more like a wagon than an SUV. At the car dealership, these suspicions were confirmed.

In 2002, the Japanese concern issued the second generation "Subaru Forester". The crossover was equipped with a two-liter engine, but also there was a small STI series with a 2.5-liter engine. The car consumed from 9 to 15 liters of fuel per 100 km.

In 2007, the Japanese presented the world third generation Forester. The mass of the car amounted to almost 1600 kg. The crossover is available in specifications with an engine capacity of 2 and 2.5 liters. Power is 175 horsepower. In Europe, an auto version of 145 horsepower is available.

In mid-November 2013, Subaru presented the fourth generation. In the manufacturer's country, the vehicle was sold with a 2 liter engine. Specs were also available with a 2.5 liter engine. The car compared with its predecessor lost about 100 kg in weight.

Forester 2017.

The model was presented at the motor show in the capital of Japan. The restyling of the crossover suggests that the manufacturer does not plan to surrender in the competitive struggle. Special accent was made on the design, which completely changed, and on the safety of the car. The last parameter was brought by the creators to perfection.

According to the appearance of the vehicle, it is possible to conclude that Forester repeats the features of South Korean SUVs. The hood of the car is made of light alloys. This is done to reduce the weight of the crossover.

The cabin has a seventh touch screen and 4 speakers. Also, the vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth, rear view cameras and ports for connecting gadgets. Forester has only a gasoline engine. Its power can be 151, 171 and 243 horsepower. On the territory of Russia, the car can be purchased at a price of 1.7 to 2 million rubles.

Outback

Like Forester, this model was first issued in 1995. The car has at the end of 1996 the Japanese company released a Legacy Outback car. The second generation appeared on the light after 4 years since the release of the first vehicle OUTBACK and received the name of VN. Motors with 4 cylinders and a volume of 135 and 165 horsepower were installed on the crossover.

In 2003, Subaru presented the third generation. The vehicle was developed following the fourth generation of Legacy. At the beginning of the fall of 2009, the company released the fourth generation.

Outback 2017.

This crossover is the most expensive car of the entire model range. The cost of the vehicle in Russia is from 2.3 to 3.3 million rubles. The advantage of Outback 2017 is a large and spacious salon.

The machine is available with two engines: 2.5 l and 3.6 liters volume. The first (4 cylinder) is quiet and consumes less fuel. The second (6 cylinders) is considered more powerful and productive.
