Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

With so much Giulia DNA, the Stelvio was bound to be good. At last an Alfa to buy with your heart *and* head

Pros
One of the more lithe SUVs to drive
is comfy and refined too

Cons
Not without compromise, and does it look good enough for an Alfa?

Subaru has made adaptive LED headlamps and automatic high beams standard across the Forester lineup for 2021 while the Limited model now comes with a seven-speed manual mode for the continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). A new rear center-console storage tray has been added to all but the base model.

Pros
Thoroughly practical,
roomy interior,
comfortable cruiser.

Cons
Slow acceleration times,
boring exterior styling,
base model is quite basic.

Automatic high beams and turn-swiveling headlights are now standard.Other minor revisions to standard feature availability.

Pros
Standard all-wheel drive
A full complement of driver assist features are standard
Enhanced off-road capability thanks to better-than-average ground clearance
Generous cargo capacity

Cons
Engine is underpowered
Modest tow rating limits maximum utility

Pros

Remarkable efficiency

Cons
Not especially powerful
Looks haven’t changed much
It’s not free...
...and one’s not in our driveway now.
