Subaru has refreshed the Forester SUV for 2022 with blockier-looking front headlamps, a reworked grille, and new wheel designs. A Wilderness trim joins the lineup and, like the Outback Wilderness, it adds additional ground clearance and a rugged appearance package. Inside, the Forester benefits from new optional gesture controls for the climate control system and a panoramic sunroof as standard equipment on all but the base trim.
Pros Plenty of cargo space, comfortable two-row layout, smooth ride.
Cons Poky acceleration, base model is spartan, not as cool as the Outback wagon.
