Countless places to explore. Endless room for adventure.THE DIFFERENCE:A smart interior design blends spaciousness, flexibility and high levels of comfort to meet the demands of an active lifestyle — either within the confines of the city or the expanse of the great outdoors.
THE ADVANTAGE: In an SUV that makes things easy, you never have to think twice about where you want to go, what you’re able to take with you or whom you want to bring along for the ride.
Utility: It’s supposed to be an integral part of every SUV — after all, that’s what the “U” stands
for — but some vehicles meet the definition better than others. With standard roof rails, a
generous 1087-kg towing capacity and a compact double-wishbone rear suspension system
that creates a wider, more useful cargo area, the Forester is right at the top of the list.

A world of discovery awaits.An expansive cabin with thoughtful features throughout. Countless bins, pockets and trays, each one cleverly designed to give your belongings a place to belong. And 60/40-split flat-folding rear seats that create up to 1,934 litres of storage space. The Subaru Forester works hard to fit it all in.
BIGGER IDEAS FOR SMALLER ITEMSThe Forester is the model of smart interior design. There are useful storage compartments within easy reach, including
bottle holders in the doors, an overhead console and an illuminated, multi-function centre console. Rear-seat passengers
have not been forgotten either, as evidenced by the available, illuminated retractable cushion table with built-in cup holders.
READY FOR LONG ITEMS OR LONG WEEKENDSThe Forester is uniquely prepared to keep pace with your life, including everything from well-planned vacations to
spontaneous shopping trips. The cargo area can accommodate four large suitcases or four golf bags, while an array
of hooks help secure smaller items in place. For lengthier cargo, the 60/40-split rear seats fold flat with releases
on the seatbacks.
EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE, EVERYTHING SECUREThe available cargo cover, with its lightweight aluminum frame, is easily
retractable or removable, making it perfect for keeping your valuables hidden
from sight. When not needed, it can be conveniently stowed under the cargo
floor. Meanwhile, the optional cargo tray is equally useful in keeping everything in
the cargo area well-organized.

Alwaysin step with you.
The Subaru Forester is uniquely engineered to keep pace with
the ever-changing demands of the modern driver. This is where
new power, increased efficiency and new levels of refinement
meet legendary Subaru confidence and control.

Stay connected.Subaru symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive
Symmetry gives you balance. Balance gives you control. This is why Subaru has spent
nearly 40 years developing and perfecting the Subaru symmetrical full-time AWD system.
Enhanced by the SUBARU BOXER engine for an almost perfectly symmetrical layout, it
maximizes power delivery with exceptional traction and generates balance and stability
for better control in all conditions. More control inspires more confidence behind the
wheel and a more gratifying driving experience overall.
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCEExceptional traction, courtesy of Subaru symmetrical full-time AWD, makes acceleration feel
immediate and exhilarating. Combined with its symmetrical drivetrain layout, the Forester is able to
deliver responsive handling, stability in the corners and a unique feeling of control at all times.
CONSTANT CONTACTThe more your tires are engaged with the road, the more control you have. This is why power is routed
to all four wheels while the vehicle is in motion, so the AWD system doesn’t have to react to potential
hazards like puddles, bumps or potholes in the road. Instead, the system is able to keep the tires
connected to the road as closely as possible at all times.
AGILITY IN AN EMERGENCYIn poor weather, or in the precious seconds it takes to react to a sudden situation, the Subaru
symmetrical full-time AWD system — which is almost perfectly balanced side-to-side — provides
the stability, agility and traction that help you steer away from danger.

Stay balanced.SUBARU BOXER engine
Few other SUVs offer the sheer, unbridled driving pleasure of the Subaru Forester. So it’s
not surprising that this has been achieved through an innovative design that gives this
SUV a clear advantage over the competition. The horizontally opposed configuration
of the SUBARU BOXER engine places the pistons 180 degrees apart, creating a lower
and flatter profile than other engine types. This gives the engine — and, therefore, the
whole vehicle — a lower centre of gravity and a better sense of balance. Furthermore,
the opposing movement of the pistons inherently counteract each other, naturally helping
to reduce vibration and increase driving comfort.
INCREASED STABILITYBecause the engine block has a flatter profile and sits lower in the chassis, the vehicle is more
balanced and resistant to side-to-side motion than other engine configurations.
SMOOTH POWERAt any rpm level, the engine delivers immediate, responsive power that comes on smooth. This
occurs because the pistons lay flat and work against each other to reduce vibration, making the
ride as easy and comfortable as it is exciting.
LONG-LASTING PERFORMANCEThe engine’s flat design is inherently rigid and self-balancing, generating less vibration than V-type
and most in-line engines for exceptional durability and reliable performance.

This turbocharged 2.5-litre DOHC SUBARU BOXER combines the immediate gratification and lasting pleasures of sports-car performance, low emissions and surprising fuel efficiency. A high-flow intercooler, Active Valve Control System and virtually no turbo lag result in linear response and a continuous crescendo of acceleration. With its highly rigid design and natural balance, the engine is as strong as it is smooth, ensuring endless miles of driving pleasure for the road ahead.
+PZEV EQUIPMENTThe naturally aspirated 2.5-litre DOHC SUBARU BOXER behind the new Subaru Forester features improved low-end torque, better mid-range response and increased fuel efficiency. Plus, the addition of optional Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV) equipment helps reduce smog-forming emissions to near zero with no compromise in performance, allowing this smart SUV to meet California's Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV) tailpipe standard. One of the cleanest gas-powered vehicles on the road today, the Forester with the PZEV Option* is also SmartWay® certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, signifying that it achieves strict, predetermined levels for fuel economy and tailpipe emissions.
*PZEV Option available on 2.5X Convenience Package (4EAT) only.
THE NEW SUBARU BOXER — BETTER THAN EVERThe new generation of SUBARU BOXER engines takes a superior concept and builds
on it to stay one step ahead of the competition. A longer stroke, optimized components
and more precise control of air, fuel and temperature combine to reduce friction,
emissions and fuel consumption. These engines are also quicker off the line and more
responsive on the open road, yet they maintain a reputation for smooth power delivery
and more balanced handling.E

In touch with every move. THE DIFFERENCE: A refined chassis, low centre of gravity, all-wheel drive and stability control system add up to composure, self-assurance and cornering capabilities far beyond those of ordinary SUVs.
THE ADVANTAGE: Every meticulously crafted component works together to make the Forester confident in every corner, surefooted on any surface and satisfying in every season.
LOW CENTRE OF GRAVITYWhile the Forester offers a commanding view of the road and generous ground
clearance — as you would expect in an SUV — it also features a low-profile
SUBARU BOXER engine and symmetrical full-time AWD that brings the centre of
gravity significantly closer to the road. The result is a truly great handling SUV with
exceptional stability and razor-sharp reflexes that ordinary SUVs simply cannot match.
SUBARU DYNAMIC CHASSIS CONTROL CONCEPT (DC3)The thinking behind Subaru DC3 takes the inherent balance, composure and response of the Forester
to new heights and new levels of refinement. The super-strong body, rigorous steering components and
advanced long-stroke double-wishbone rear suspension — combined with a further-reduced mounting
height for the engine — deliver a smoother ride, better impact management, and a more accurate and
more natural steering feel.
SUSPENSIONThe Forester’s strut-type front and double wishbone rear suspension have been refined to inspire even
greater handling and driver confidence. The rear bushings and shock absorbers have been fine-tuned
and optimized to minimize harshness and contribute to more precise steering for greater control and
improved comfort. Driver feedback is also crisper, while the vehicle has a more solid, planted feel.
Combined with a long stroke, wide track and impressive 220 mm ground clearance (225 mm on
2.5XT Limited), the Forester delivers a unique combination of rugged capability and refined handling
that sets new standards for this class of vehicle.
4-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION + MULTI-PLATE TRANSFER CLUTCH AWDFor instant and seamless response to varying driving conditions, the available 4-speed automatic
transmission with Manual Mode (4EAT) utilizes a multi-plate transfer clutch AWD system. This transmission
allows the driver to choose from two fully automatic modes (Normal and Sport) and a manual-shift
mode. The AWD system maintains a 60/40 torque split (front/rear) for more predictable handling and
automatically adjusts up to a 50/50 split under hard acceleration or when conditions warrant.
5-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION
+ VISCOUS-COUPLING LIMITED-SLIP CENTRE DIFFERENTIAL AWDStandard on two Forester models is a slick-shifting 5-speed manual transmission paired with an AWD
system using a viscous-coupling limited-slip centre differential. This system maintains a 50/50 torque
split and incorporates Vehicle Dynamics Control to ensure sporty performance under all conditions.
This is the transmission of choice for those who crave maximum control and maximum driving pleasure.

Secure in your surroundings.THE DIFFERENCE:Agile response, all-wheel drive and other advanced active safety systems help keep you in control at all times, even when you encounter unexpected situations and challenging conditions.
THE ADVANTAGE:Every Subaru is proactive about your protection because the best way to walk away from an accident is to avoid it altogether.
*Automatic transmission only. †The Subaru Vehicle Dynamics Control system may also be known as Electronic Stability Control.
Ideal cornering
UndersteerOversteer
VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL SYSTEMThe standard Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) system†
uses an array of sensors to analyze if the Forester is
following the driver’s intended path. If the vehicle
approaches the limits of stability, VDC instantly
adjusts the AWD torque distribution*, engine
output and brakes at each wheel to help keep
the vehicle on course.
BRAKING SYSTEMStandard 4-wheel disc brakes feature a 4-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and
Electronic Brake-force Distribution to automatically adjust front/rear braking pressure
when vehicle load changes. Electronic Brake Assist also provides greater braking
force in emergency situations. And the Hill Holder‡ system holds the brakes for an
extra second to help prevent rollback when starting on an incline.
‡Manual transmission models only.
ACTIVE SAFETY, TO AVOID A COLLISIONMany of the same features that make the Subaru Forester fun to drive also help keep you out of harm’s way. For example, the position
of the SUBARU BOXER engine creates a low centre of gravity and enhances the performance capabilities of the entire symmetrical
full-time AWD system resulting in precise, surefooted and stable handling. Furthermore, the standard Vehicle Dynamics Control
system, responsive steering, anti-lock brakes and large windows are all designed to help the driver stay confidently in control.

RING-SHAPED REINFORCEMENT FRAMEThe advanced ring-shaped reinforcement
frame strengthens the passenger cabin
from the roof to the doors, pillars and
floor. This design helps to dissipate
impact energy and divert it away from
occupants in a collision. The front
crumple zone is also engineered to
compress gradually and allow the
SUBARU BOXER engine to slide
underneath the cabin in a severe
frontal impact.
PASSIVE SAFETY, TO LESSEN THE CHANCE OF INJURY IN A COLLISIONThe Forester is engineered to protect the driver, passengers and even pedestrians
with a network of advanced passive safety systems. The body, including the advanced
ring-shaped reinforcement frame, is strategically strengthened, to help minimize
impact energy from all directions. An array of airbags, active front-seat head restraints,
collapsible pedals and 3-point seatbelts help protect occupants even more. It’s a core
value at Subaru that driving enjoyment starts with security and peace of mind.
SEATS, SEATBELTS AND AIRBAGSStandard on every Forester are front,
front side-impact and side curtain
airbags with rollover sensors, as well
as height-adjustable front seatbelts
with pretensioners to hold occupants
firmly in place and load limiters to ease
peak forces to the chest. In addition,
whiplash-reducing active front-seat head restraints automatically move forward in a
rear collision to better support the head and neck.
Surrounded by security.THE DIFFERENCE: A full complement of passive safety features — from the ultra-strong body structure to the comprehensive array of restraint systems — work in concert to reduce the chance of injury should an accident prove unavoidable.
THE ADVANTAGE:An all-encompassing approach to safety leaves little to chance — especially comforting when it comes to the well-being of your passengers.
2010 model year ratings.1Ratings of “Good” are the highest rating awarded for 40-mph frontal offset, 31-mph side-impact and 20-mph rear-impact crash tests conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) (www.iihs.org). A “Good” rating obtained in all three crash tests plus a “Good” rating in new roof strength testing and the availability of Electronic Stability Control (ESC) (Vehicle Dynamics Control) achieves a 2010 Top Safety Pick. 2U.S. Government star crash-test ratings are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA’s) New Car Assessment Program (www.safercar.gov). A five-star crash-test rating is the highest government rating for a) Driver and right front seating positions in frontal crash tests and b) Front and rear seating positions in side-impact crash tests.

Subaru C.A.R.E. (Customer Assistance for Roadside Emergencies)The Subaru C.A.R.E. program (which is backed by the Canadian Automobile Association [CAA]) is offered free of charge for the first three years from date of purchase on every new Subaru vehicle or as part of a Subaru Protection Plan. As a Subaru C.A.R.E. member, you can count on fast, courteous emergency roadside assistance 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You will receive a membership card and have access to a dedicated toll-free telephone number (in English or French), allowing you to take advantage of over 20,000 roadside assistance contractors and 1,000 CAA and American Automobile Association (AAA) offices throughout Canada and the United States. Ask your dealer for details or visit subaru.ca.
Subaru Canada, Inc. is proud to be the first vehicle manufacturer to have a direct relationship with CAA, giving our customers the benefit of CAA’s unparalleled level of experience and service.
Subaru Protection PlanAs a Subaru owner, you have expectations for a pleasurable, trouble-free ownership experience — now and into the future. Once your 36-month/60,000-km New Vehicle Limited Warranty period ends,* our Subaru Protection Plan (SPP) — the only vehicle service contract endorsed by Subaru Canada for Subaru vehicles — can prolong your hassle-free ownership experience with three levels of extended service contract coverage tailored to your needs: Powertrain Protection; Major Protection; or Complete Protection (best level of coverage to complement the 60-month/100,000-km Major Component Limited Warranty). SPP offers comprehensive mechanical and electrical coverage and a number of additional features and benefits, such as Roadside Assistance and Alternate Transportation, for up to 7 years or 160,000 km from your vehicle’s in-service date. Whether your vehicle is purchased or leased, SPP protects you and your investment. Be sure to ask your dealer for details or visit subaru.ca.
*If you already own a Subaru vehicle and it is still within the 36-month/60,000-km New Vehicle Limited Warranty period, you are still eligible for SPP!

The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS airbags) affords the driver and passenger additional protection in some collisions. This system provides supplemental protection only, and seatbelts must be worn in order to avoid injuries to out-of-position occupants upon airbag deployment. The combination of SRS and seatbelts provides the best protection in a serious accident.
