2014 Subaru Forester – Motortrends SUV Of The Year
The new 2014 Subaru Forester is one of our favourite vehicles available right now. Not only is the new design a big win with consumers, bYt it is tops in safety ranking and just pulled in another win as SUV Of The year with Motortrend.
Subaru is the only three-time winner of Sport/Utility of the Year, up against brands like Land Rover, Audi and Acura. The Crosstrek also ranked as a finalist.
Subaru is the only automaker with back-to-back wins, as well as, the most wins in the SUV category. In the past 6 years some of the other wins have gone to the 2010 Outback and 2009 Forester.
Why Did The 2014 Subaru Forester Win?
“Smart design, thoughtful engineering, and a compelling performance on road and off were the keys to the Forester’s win. Our editors were particularly impressed by the powerful yet efficient turbocharged engines, the intelligent and sporty CVT transmission, and the excellent visibility and interior package found within the Forester. Practical, affordable, efficient and fun to drive – Forester truly ticked every box.”
