Focus on what’s important
With distractions all around us, inside the car and out, maintaining attention on the road ahead requires maximum focus. The revolutionary, new Subaru Driver Monitoring System1 (DMS) keeps watch over you, while you keep your eyes on the road. Using a camera combined with intelligent technology, the system recognises when the driver is distracted or drowsy. Should the driver’s attention wane, an alert will warn the driver to regain focus. The intelligent facial recognition technology also identifies, and welcomes, up to five people when they take the driver’s seat - resetting the seating, mirrors and cabin environment to their pre-programmed preferences.

Make fun a habit
Transforming the heart and soul of the Forester is Subaru’s next generation 2.5L Direct Injection, horizontally-opposed Boxer engine. Demanding the seemingly impossible, improved fuel efficiency and a more responsive on road performance, the Subaru engineers over delivered. The result is enhanced power and torque to make light work of rutted roads and switchback mountain passes. So you can escape to that hard to get to picnic spot on a whim.
