2021 Subaru Forester Sport

The 2021 Subaru Forester Sport (SK Fifth Generation) is a distinctively styled, athletic variant of Subaru’s compact crossover SUV built on the Subaru Global Platform (SGP). Tailored for an active lifestyle, the Sport trim is visually differentiated from standard grades by gloss-black exterior trim (front grille, side mirrors, and roof spoiler), unique 18-inch black alloy wheels, orange exterior accent striping along the side sills and front/rear valances, dark metallic roof rails with integrated tie-downs, and dual-outlet exhaust tips. Under the bonnet, it is powered by a 2.5-liter FB25 direct-injection 4-cylinder Boxer engine outputting 182 hp (185 PS / 136 kW) and 176 lb-ft (239 Nm) of torque. Power is delivered through a Lineartronic CVT featuring a driver-selectable 7-speed manual mode with steering wheel paddle shifters, routed through Subaru’s Symmetrical Full-Time All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system. The Sport grade comes exclusively with a dual-mode X-Mode system (Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud) for enhanced low-speed off-road traction and Hill Descent Control. Inside, the cabin features water-repellent grey cloth upholstery accented with contrast orange stitching, orange interior trim rings around the air vents and shift gate, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a top-mounted Multi-Function Display (MFD), an 8.0-inch STARLINK touchscreen display supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic power moonroof, and standard
