Steering Responsive Headlights

When rounding a curve at night, the illumination direction of the headlights move left or right according to the steering wheel to ensure visibility.

Three 12V Power Outlets

Auxiliary power is at your fingertips with a 12-volt power outlet located in the centre console, centre console box and cargo space.

Steering Wheel-mounted Controls

Steering wheel-mounted controls place audio controls conveniently at your fingertips, and an available Bluetooth® * (1) hands-free system automatically links with your smartphone to help keep you focused on the road.

Instrument Cluster

The instrument panel of the Forester is designed to deliver information quickly and effortlessly. The tachometer and speedometer are clearly visible to help keep more focus on the road ahead.

Headlamp Washers

Pop-up washers use a high-pressure spray to help keep the headlamps at their peak performance in poor weather.

Automatic Rain-sensing Windshield Wipers

Available automatic windshield wipers detect rainfall on the glass and adjust their wiping intervals and speed accordingly.

8-way Power Adjustable Driver’s Seat

This allows you to find a comfortable seating position by 8-way power adjustment. In models with leather interior, a 2-seat position memory function has been added.

Fog Lamps

Multi-reflector fog lamps also serve as daytime running lights and emit a wide, flat beam that reflects less glare in fog for added safety.

One-touch Folding Switches

Switches in the cargo area automatically fold each of the 60/40-split rear seatbacks, expanding the luggage space with remarkable ease.

X-Mode and Hill Descent Control

With a push of a button, X-Mode takes control of the engine, transmission, AWD, brakes, and other components to safely navigate through bad roads and slippery surfaces for maximum confidence. For challenging descents, Hill Descent Control enhances confidence down the steepest of hills you’ll encounter by providing constant, controlled momentum so the driver can focus more on steering the vehicle—and less on braking.

Cruise Control

Standard electronic cruise control allows the driver to maintain a preset speed on the open road. Located on the steering wheel, the controls are finished in a modern dark-metallic sheen.

Touchscreen Control

Use the touchscreen to easily manage your music, just as you would on your smartphone. Simply connect your smartphone through Bluetooth® *(1) or the USB port, and you can choose your music right on the touchscreen.
