When you’ve got kids, buying a car isn’t just about getting from A to B—it’s about finding something you can depend on.
You need space for all their gear, safety features that keep them protected, and enough comfort to survive long trips without being annoyed by the phrase: “Are we there yet?”
The Subaru Forester checks every one of these boxes, and then some.
In the next few minutes, we’ll break down the top five reasons why families everywhere are choosing the Forester.
Because when it comes to keeping your family safe, comfortable, and happy on the road, nothing should be left to chance.
1. Space to Breathe (and Store All the Gear)
Every parent knows that space matters. From prams to sports gear to weekend bags, you need a vehicle that fits everything—without feeling cramped.
The Subaru Forester delivers with its generous cargo space and wide-opening rear doors.
Even if you’re just packing for a road trip or just tackling the weekly shopping, there’s plenty of room for the entire family’s needs.
The rear seats are a 60/40 split-fold design, which means you can customize the space to fit bulky items like bikes or furniture while still seating passengers.
No more Tetris games trying to fit things in.
2. Safety You Can Count On
When your family’s in the car, safety isn’t just a feature—it’s a necessity.
The Forester is loaded with Subaru’s Vision Assist technology, which acts like an extra pair of eyes on the road.
Whether it's Blind-Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, or Lane Departure Warning, these features work behind the scenes to keep your family safe.
Imagine backing out of a busy car park with the kids in the back.
A pedestrian or cyclist suddenly crosses your path, but before you can even react, the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert kicks in and applies the brakes for you.
It’s those life-saving moments that make the Forester stand out.
3. Comfort for the Whole Family
Long car rides with kids can be a challenge.
But with the Subaru Forester, comfort is a given.
The spacious, well-cushioned seats provide support for both driver and passengers, keeping everyone comfortable for hours on end.
The dual-zone climate control allows parents to stay cool up front while the kids stay warm in the back—or vice versa.
No more complaints about it being too hot or too cold. And with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, the kids can stream their favourite tunes or listen to an audiobook, keeping everyone entertained.
4. Handles Any Adventure You Throw at It
Family adventures don’t always happen on smooth roads. Sometimes, the best memories are made off the beaten track.
The Subaru Forester is designed to handle it all with its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and X-MODE for rough terrain.
Whether you're navigating the sandy trails near the coast or the muddy paths of a national park, the Forester’s off-road capability keeps you in control.
You don’t have to worry about whether your car can keep up with your family’s sense of adventure—it was built for it.
5. Built to Last
Parents need a car they can rely on day in and day out, year after year.
The Subaru Forester is built to go the distance, offering durability and long-term reliability.
With its high-strength steel frame and a reputation for lasting well beyond 100,000 kilometres, this is a vehicle you can trust not to let you down.
And when life happens—like a scrape in the car park or a bump on a road trip—the Forester’s strong build quality means it can handle the knocks without skipping a beat.
The Family SUV That Has It All
If you’re a parent, the Subaru Forester checks all the boxes.
It’s spacious enough for your whole crew, packed with safety features that give you peace of mind, and versatile enough to take on any family adventure.
