Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Capability
The standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system in the Forester Hybrid SUV is designed to optimize traction in rain, snow, on rough roads, or even when there’s no road at all. It constantly evaluates acceleration, braking, and cornering in real time to continuously deliver power to all four wheels. If a wheel slips, power is instantaneously transferred to the wheels that have the most grip. It’s a level of all-weather, all-terrain standard capability the Honda CR-V Hybrid and Ford Escape Hybrid can’t match*.
Stability and Control
With its exceptionally balanced layout, Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive delivers a solid connection with the road and an engaged, responsive drive. The entire system lies along the centerline of the vehicle, balancing weight distribution between the two sides to help provide optimal performance and control.
Fuel Efficiency and Durability
With up to 40 percent improved city fuel economy and over 581 miles of driving range, the 2025 Forester Hybrid compact AWD SUV delivers great all-wheel-drive gas mileage. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive has demonstrated its durability and low maintenance over four decades of owner-tested Subaru vehicles, so you can be confident your Forester Hybrid AWD SUV will keep taking you farther year after year.
