The compact Forester crossover is Subaru’s all-around answer for most questions. Do you need a family car? Forester is a great choice with seating for five and plenty of cargo capacity. Do you want to go camping? Forester has nearly magical off-road chops, and it will carry a roof pod or a roof tent with ease. Are you on a budget? Forester is affordable, lasts a long time, and has great reliability stats.

But as great as the basic Forester is, Subaru needed to add a hybrid model to appeal to those who want to go a bit greener and save on gas costs. So it’s no surprise that we’re welcoming the Forester Hybrid to the lineup. The important things to know about the hybrid are that it’s still a Forester, and it’s still pretty affordable.
