2012 Subaru Forester 2.0
October 31, 2011 - Category Subaru
If you are looking for the greatest improvement in the revamped Forester with the naked eye, you lose your time because it is hidden under the hood. Some may even find that a motor with identical capacity and performance (150 hp) can not be upgraded. And yet, despite the similarities with the previous set, the new four-cylinder is completely new … with different diameters and stroke (84×90 mm instead of 92×75), which changes all the mapping engine in favor of consumption and emissions.
Specifically, the average standard has fallen to 7.5 l/100 km (from 8.4), while CO2 emissions to 173 g / km. (From 198). Improvements were made in many places (reducing friction, a new block and pistons, new intake system, export, etc.) to achieve optimal combustion. On the other hand, the post has been reset in the light of better damping and driving comfort. All this may sound fine print, but the combination is enough to speak of genuine renewal.
Changes are consistent with a standard facelift. Even if you’re not very observant, you can discern in front of a slightly redesigned grille, outside mirrors with integrated flash and now the newly designed wheels. Inside was a particular emphasis on upgrading the quality of construction, the new instrument panel and various other details (dual zone climate control, reversing camera, Bluetooth system, etc.). Finally, note that the revamped Forester is available in exactly the same sales price as the previous model, starting from 28.600 €.
