The Sport trim builds on a foundation of reliability with a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine paired with Lineartronic CVT transmission and all-wheel drive, delivering 26 city and 33 highway MPG. This powertrain offers responsive performance while maintaining fuel efficiency for daily commuting and weekend adventures alike. Four-wheel independent suspension and speed-sensing steering contribute to confident handling across varied road conditions.
Inside, the cabin welcomes you with heated front bucket seats finished in sport cloth upholstery, complemented by heated rear seating for passenger comfort. The panoramic moonroof floods the interior with natural light, creating an open and airy atmosphere. The power rear gate with automatic close and height memory simplifies loading and unloading cargo, accommodating the split folding rear seat for flexible storage arrangements.
Technology integration centers on the 8" Subaru Starlink Multimedia Plus System, which provides seamless smartphone connectivity through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Harman/Kardon premium audio system features nine speakers and a subwoofer, delivering refined sound quality whether streaming music or enjoying satellite radio through the included SiriusXM All Access trial subscription. Voice-activated controls and steering wheel-mounted audio controls keep your focus on the road.
Safety systems work quietly in the background to provide peace of mind. The Reverse Automatic Braking System (RAB) uses rear sensors to detect obstacles and apply brakes when necessary. Additional protective features include dual front and side impact airbags, knee airbags, anti-whiplash front head restraints, and an emergency communication system through STARLINK Safety and Security. Electronic Stability Control and traction control enhance stability during challenging driving situations.
The black exterior presents a striking appearance enhanced by body-color bumpers, sport spoiler, and black-finish alloy wheels. Splash guards protect against road debris, while heated power mirrors with turn signal indicators offer convenience and visibility. Fully automatic headlights and front fog lights ensure excellent visibility in various lighting conditions. The rear window wiper and variably intermittent front wipers adapt to changing weather.
This 2023 Subaru Forester Sport represents an intelligent choice for buyers seeking a well-equipped vehicle that balances capability with everyday practicality. We invite you to visit our showroom to experience the quality of this vehicle firsthand and explore ownership options that fit your needs.

Love this Subaru
By Subaru Owner on 6/10/2026 5:39:32 PM
I've owned other vehicles and rented many on trips. The Forester wilderness has more power and clearance, gets great gas mileage, and overall is the most dependable. Plus, it looks good! I would choose it again without hesitation. - 5.0

Genuinely love my car
By limes on 3/27/2026 3:06:39 AM
I bought this car new and off the lot so it had maximum 5 miles on it before I took it home. We’re going on 4 years of driving and I understand the cult following of Subaru’s. No major or moderate issues to report!
