A recent ski trip to Winter Park, Colorado led to an exploration of the popular choice among Coloradans for Subaru vehicles. The reviewer spent a week with the 2025 Subaru Forester Sport, putting it through its paces in mountain weather and snowy conditions.
Priced at $36,030, the Forester Sport offers a lot of features for the price. It comes with a tablet-style 11.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, upgraded upholstery, heated seats and side mirrors, keyless entry, and more. The sporty elements include 19-inch bronze-trimmed alloy wheels and Subaru’s X-Mode system for enhanced traction on challenging terrain.
Powered by a 2.5-liter flat-4 engine, the Forester Sport delivers 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. Despite the rubbery feel of the continuously variable automatic transmission, the Forester Sport excels in providing stability and control in mountain driving conditions. The all-wheel drive system and X-Mode settings ensure optimal traction in different driving scenarios.
With 27.5 cubic feet of cargo space, the Forester Sport proves to be practical for carrying ski gear and luggage. While the reviewer noted minor issues such as the lack of a heated steering wheel and headlight washers, overall, the Forester Sport is praised for its suitability for mountain driving and active lifestyles.
In conclusion, the 2025 Subaru Forester Sport is recommended for those seeking a reliable and capable vehicle for tackling snowy and mountainous roads. Coloradans’ preference for Subarus is well-founded, as the Forester Sport proves to be a versatile and practical choice for outdoor enthusiasts.
