Residents of Middletown, CT will find the Forester SUV's sure-footed handling particularly valuable during unpredictable weather conditions throughout the year. The standard gasoline engine achieves an estimated 26 MPG in the city and 33 MPG on the highway, striking a balance between performance and efficiency.

A Cabin Built for Comfort and Confidence

The centerpiece of the Forester SUV's interior is the available 11.6-inch Multimedia Navigation System with a high-resolution multi-touch display. This system includes voice-activated controls, TomTom navigation software, and seamless smartphone integration via wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The available Harman Kardon speaker system with 11 speakers and a 576-watt equivalent amplifier delivers exceptional audio quality for music lovers in New London, CT.

Safety remains a top priority for Subaru, and the 2026 Forester is equipped with comprehensive driver assistance technologies. The EyeSight system provides adaptive cruise control and lane centering capabilities. Emergency Lane Keep Assist helps prevent unintended lane departures, while Evasion Assist and Reverse Automatic Braking add additional layers of protection. Blind Spot Detection and Rear Cross Traffic Alert help drivers navigate parking lots and highway merges with greater confidence.

The available panoramic moonroof with power sliding glass spans the first and second rows, flooding the cabin with natural light and creating an open, airy atmosphere.
