Armstrong Motor Group Say Top Class Forester Has it All

The benefits of elevated ride heights, all-wheel drive traction and an impressive list of safety features have not gone unnoticed by those eyeing up the Forester 2.5 Sport Plus. Strong acceleration and a smooth touring speed, partnered with solid braking, make it a popular choice for families, and interestingly, multi-sport competitors who are looking for the ability to travel off-road conditions, reliability and a whole lot of space.

 

A wider than usual rear door opening allows easy loading and unloading, be that for the baby seats, three in a row if you need them or the bikes. Lower the back seats and you’ll find the vast expanse of cargo space available is almost a rental proposition, something that can only be appreciated by families on their annual Christmas road trip, or those who firmly believe that travelling light is for sissies.

 

Those who also want to pack the kitchen sink, or something even the Forester can’t handle inside can go up a level and strap it onto the roof rails. If you have always wanted to upgrade the family Chihuahua for a pair of Great Danes then you will find that this is the SUV and now is very much the time.

 

Safety partners with solid performance here with a whole lot of reassurance and minimum complication. Subaru have invested heavily in software to help save you from the vagaries of other people’s driving skills, or yours, if you’re having an off day. Along with the usual safety features we’ve come to expect from today’s vehicles, Subaru has also given the driver a driver monitoring system (DMS) with facial recognition technology. If your attention is anywhere other than the road, and that means looking down to check your text messages,  it tells you firmly to concentrate on the job at hand and the road ahead.

 

Clever crash avoidance technology will give you pre-colisioin braking, brake assist and throttle management, along with lane sway and departure warning. Not surprisingly, you also get a 5-Star ANCAP rating.
