The best crossover "Subaru": characteristics and comparison with competitors. Ambitions "Forester Compare Subaru Forester with similar competitors

19.04.2020

IN last year More and more crossovers are trying on "glamorous robes", deprived of even Malomal opportunities for the conquest of off-road and turning into typical city inhabitants. On their background, a mansion is "Forester" fourth generationwho for many years tried not to change its traditions - "Men's" appearance and exclusively four-wheel drive.

The World Debut of Forester fourth generation took place in 2012 on the stage of the car dealership in Los Angeles, and in front of the European public he appeared in all its glory in March 2013 on loafs in Geneva.

Two years later, everything is there in Los Angeles, the Japanese from Subaru presented updated crossover, which, without changing outwardly, got a small improvement in the cabin, pulled up in terms of safety and lost the "mechanics" (for the Russian market).

The second modernization of Forester IV survived in May 2016 - this time the bumpers, optics and a radiator lattice were slightly corrected, improved sound insulation, expanded the list of available equipment and returned (for our country) a "manual" gearbox.

The next, extreme to date, the update has affected the car in September 2017 - this time the Japanese went around the design of the exterior and interior, but again separated its inaccessible options before the options and added new levels of execution.

In general, it can be said that the "fourth" Subaru Forester. Decorated in a low-spirited style and deliberately rough style that gives him an errorless recognition against the background of other models. Most of the design sizes are concentrated around the "face" part: a radiator grille with the company "six faces" and "sharp" headlights with LED supplying of running lights that are supplemented by a bumper with a conventional or "sports" design with characteristic "balls" from the fog.

Forester's profile demonstrates muscular and solid proportions with "bloated" arches of wheels that fit the alloy wheels with a dimension of 17-18 inches, prescribing the sidewall to the edge and a large area of \u200b\u200bglazing.

Monumental feed of this southwalk Subaru. Decorated in typical concept crossovers - Compact lights, characteristic trunk lid and bumper, in which one or two nozzles are integrated graduation system Depending on the version.

The 4th generation model formally acts in the segment compact crossovers (Although actually came close to "mid-sized"): 4610 mm in length, 1795 mm wide and 1735 mm in height. The length of the wheelbase consists of 2640 mm, and the minimum road clearance (with the cutting mass) is 220 mm.

In a hiking state, the weight of this car varies from 1551 to 1702 kilograms.

The interior Subaru Forester is pleased with the exquisite - everything is quite ascetic and simply, but located "in its places" and is qualitatively executed. In general, the decoration of this "Japanese" can be described as "the embodiment of reasonable sufficiency."

The combination of devices with analog scales is well read and provides only necessary information, and the multifunctional steering wheel of the correct form is convenient and sympathetic outwardly. The central part of the front panel is crowned with a color monitor, which shows the testimony on-board computer and information about the operation of the all-wheel drive transmission. Slightly below, depending on the configuration, you can observe the radio, or a large display of the multimedia center, as well as three "lamb" of a two-zone climate installation.

In the cabin of this crossover, there is neither high cost, nor frank cheap - the materials of the finishes, inexpensive, but high-quality, and the level of assembly is also at all in the high "European" level. In the "top" versions for seats, the upholstery of genuine leather is provided.

One of the features of the Subaru Forester of the 4th generation is competently organized inner space. The front armors are not simply endowed with a convenient profile with well-pronounced support on the sides, but also necessary adjustment ranges. For passengers of the rear row, a comfortable sofa was installed with an adjustable angle of the back, a folding armrest and a solid margin of space in all directions. The disadvantage is only one - repellent transmission tunnel on the floor.

For the transport of goods "Fourth Forester" provides a 488-liter luggage compartment of the correct form, wide opening and acceptable loading height. The "gallery" is stacked almost in the floor, which increases the useful volume to 1548 liters and allows transporting large-sized items. In the niche, under the floor, only a compact spare wheel was able to accommodate.

Russian consumers updated in 2017 Subaru Forester 4th embodiments are offered with three gasoline four-cylinder units with horizontal-opposite configuration "Gorshkov" and DOHC GDM with a 16-valve scheme. In collaboration with each of them, a full drive system is functioning with a dynamic distribution of thrust (ACT), which has a multi-disc coupling controlled electronics in its arsenal. By default, the moment is divided between the axes in the ratio of 60:40, however, depending on the situation, this proportion may vary.

  • Under the hood of the basic versions of the crossover "registered" 2.0-liter atmospheric motor (1995 cubic centimeters) with multipoint power generating 150 "mares" at 6,200 rpm and 198 nm of possible potential at 4200 rpm.
    In place with 6-speed "mechanics" or a Lineartronic wedge variator, it allows "Foretera" to gain 100 km / h after 10.6-11.8 seconds, to minimize 190-192 km / h and "eat" no more than 8-8.2 fuel liters in " City / Route.
  • Behind him, the hierarchy should be "atmospheric" at 2.5 liters (2498 cubic centimeters) with distributed injection, peak performance of the performance in which there are 171 horsepower at 5800 rpm and 235 n m of the torque at 4100 rpm.
    In combination with it, only the variator is installed, due to which the machine breaks up to 100 km / h, it conquers a bar in 197 km / h and consumes 8.3 liters of gasoline during mixed conditions.
  • The vertex of the power palette "occupied" 2.0-liter "four" (1998 cubic centimeters) with turbocharging and direct fuel supply (outstanding 241 "horses" at 5600 rpm and 350 minutes of limit moment at 2400-3600 rev / min) - aggregative With Lineartronic Transmission.
    At the "race" to the first "hundred", such a sacrifice takes only 7.5 seconds, his "maximum speed" translates over 220 km / h, and the "appetite" does not go beyond 8.5 liters in the combined cycle.

The fourth generation crossover lies a modified platform Subaru Impreza. with MacPherson racks on the front axle and multi-dimensional part on rear axis. Subaru Forester equipped electric amplifier steering and efficient brake system With disk devices on all wheels (on the front with ventilation) with ABS and ESP.

Forester 2007 2.0 transmissions - Waists of off-road qualities

Good all the time of day!
We constantly attend this forum, more as a reader. But it appeared a reason to write.
I thought for a long time, in which section to create the topic. Decided that all the same in the reports, because although there is a comparison with another car, but more questions are technical features Forestera as such, and not what it is worse or better than others.
Ride tonight with a friend in nature (Moscow region - about 40 km from the Moscow Ring Road) - Snow-covered fields, snowy and ice slides - shorter everything you need to find out whose four-wheel drive is cooler 🙂
So, in stock:
1) I have - Forester 2.0 MCPP + RFAYAKA 2007
2) Friend - ALLROAD 2.7T MCPP + RFAYA (I do not remember the previous model).
In the fields (there is snow of about 15-20 cm, a rather dense, with an ice crust above and below) both cars behave like, passing everywhere normally, without hints of jams, row by all four (in short, almost like asphalt).
On the snow slopes - here Audi is already breaking into leaders. Either due to more weight (and, accordingly, larger inertia) - it takes better roller down, either due to the same weight better snow It gives up to a more solid layer, it is silent, either due to the more powerful and tracting engine. But in short, there was a couple of slides, which Audi, with difficulty, but overcame, and I, no matter how hard I could not. Moreover, one of them was with a winding lift of degrees in 25-30, which ended with 40-45 degree final meters by 5 (i.e., the reserve for overclocking in front of him was very small). Here I didn't have a chance. If the whole lift I passed normally, then this last segment was removed no more than half. And Audi, although with great difficulty, although not always the first time, but climbed. Clarification about the laying - we periodically sat down in the car of each other (everything was done equally) and the friend just sat behind the wheel of my Forestera - a few attempts - the result is zero. And also, in Audi you sit and feel that we row all the wheels (I do not know how the cerebeller chtoli), and there is no such feeling in Forestere.
Now, from sensations to observations - at the next unsuccessful attempt to rolling on Forester back - I decided to turn around on a snowy slope, and stuck. I sit - the gas - I stand still, and a friend and says that I only have rear wheels Rotate (only now I understand that this is theoretically impossible). I turn on the back and go.
Further more interesting. We decided on the late ride on the ice hill (degrees 25-35, with hilly). On her, children on icecakes ride in the afternoon. Both cars go there - here normally pass. Forester even behaves better if when lifting in the middle stop and then move and get to the end (row all four, no uncertainty (good tires are good - Haka 5th).
And then we decided to find the place on these Klolmikov, where you can post a diagonal. I think that I have everything cool - two diefes with self-blocking and here I will imitate the Audyushny blocking. Found ...... and what was my disappointment !!! I approach the place (one wheel hangs, the other diagonally has a very weak hook, a small bias back), I stop. I turn on the first, let go of the clutch - the car twists with two wheels and stands on the spot, add gas - the result is the same !!! Where there is a praised self-locking rear diop ... I really didn't twist a long time - I still feel sorry for the car, I turn on the back and go. Audi is all the same, but with a strong gas you can see the lock and the machine gets short-lived moment on the wheels that stand on Earth, then this moment disappears, but it is enough for popping out of this place. Several approaches - the results are the same. Further thinking can have Foreter's back better get up of these pits to leave. But no back is the same.
And then I had a few questions to lovers of off-road cuffs, full-wheel drive connoisseurs and of course to the service (Pleiad). And I realized that I can find them all and you can immediately only on this forum!
1) Could the car stand and row only 2 rear wheels?
2) why the rear diph was not blocked. With diagonal hanging?
3) May I have something wrong (it seems to be analyzing this forum, it believed that from Subar possess the most off-road version - according to the presence of reinstate, self-locking 2 differences and the most honest full drive)?
4) If still, is this marriage of my sample, then what should I do with it? Considering that the car on the warranty and recently honestly passed then 30000 in the service?
PS: in spite of everything I like the car, and I have been almost a year for almost a year, I catch myself thinking every day that I am a pleasure from her driving. Despite its asceticism and seeming noncains (it is practically like IBM among laptops - not the cheapest black brick - but how comfortable and pleasantly use it daily). I ask me forgive me for forgiveness of other laptop stamps 🙂
I add video (sorry for quality).

Ownership reviews

While Subaru Forester 4 disappoints a little (not even a bit). I do not understand that he has a suspension: shakes on small irregularities, swinging. It goes well only on the perfect road.

Changed the rubber on the summer, it became even worse. Summer tires The tough, the creepy hum. The car is at all no sound insulation. On the suspension, no one complains something, I will go to the service for 5,000 km to change the oil, I will try to figure out what is the reason.

Although in this price categoryLooks like not the worst option. All cars began to cheaper. We will have to get used. And so the car is cool, beautiful, laconic. In the evaluation "Reliability" - the five in the hope.

Video Feedback

C. new Subaru. Forester SJ can be in any "exploration", trust all 100%, in terms of reliability and reliability. Passed running, not exceeding 4,000 rpm, as recommended.

Now at odometer 5,000 km. Thu-0 passed expensive cost. As for the dynamics, it starts smoothly, unusual for me, because this is the first experience with the variator.

Many scold a 150-strong version, and there is no complaints. Power is felt, quite enough for overtaking.

But Shumka on the troechka. Engine on high revolutions It sounds unpleasant, not so noble, as you expect.

The owner goes to Subaru Forester 2.0 (150 hp) at the 2015 Variator

Comfortable machine: controls are located conveniently and they are pleased to use. Multiculor comfortable, there is no cruise. Communication capabilities are also excellent, but the standard sound is very medium.

In Subaru's chairs Forester Sit comfortably, noise insulation. Pleases predictable handling. The usual fuel consumption: 6.5-7.5 highway, mixed cycle approximately 9.5. When standing in traffic jams and 10 can fly.

Of the disadvantages - the absence of navigator, cruise control, heating the rear seats, an archaic ignition key, very medium acoustics. Not full of size. Thin metal body. Weak head.

Yuri fighting rides on Subaru Forester 2.0 (150 hp) CVT 2015

Where can one buy?

Very maneuverable and soft, comfortable seat for my sore back, small gasoline consumption. I didn't like the Forester salon, but the husband insisted, bought in 2016.

I wanted outback, but did not reach the price. The second car I have Toyota Highlander, but he didn't even stand in pleasure from driving.

Disadvantages: Thin metal. When you remove the leg from the gas instantly, it stops - very unusual, all the time you need to podger. And the stove is very weak, heats up for a long time and still in the car is cold, even at the maximum temperature.

Irina Shatovskaya, review about Subaru Forester 2.5 (171 hp) CVT 2016

Forester bought yesterday in the Motor Show "Sumotori Vladivostok". He arrived from Ussuriysk with one goal - to go back on a new car, studied Drom and other autosights, read reviews on the new Forestra during the year.

In the cabin with ready-made docks there was only one with a 2.0-liter motor in a configuration of VM. This is the maximum speed of cars with such a move. In stock Headlights with lighting function at the entrance to rotation, leather, memory of the seats, in front and rear, heated steering wheel and a lot more.

Honestly, I did not think that after Toyotov's jeeps, I could still impress something, but it turns out to be mistaken. I am impressed by hodovka. Of course, not Prado, but in comparison with X-trails and RA-4 just a song. Really some kind of elastic. She ignores the pits, bugs, etc.

Worried about the dynamics of the motor, but it turns out to go and goes well. The bunch of the motor and the variator is just a song, in comparison with the X-TRAIL in the 31st body (I was and such) - a huge difference. By consumption while writing early, the mileage is only 130 km., But 9 liters per 100 km writes on the computer. And it is on the run.

The salon is very comfortable and big, thought there will be less. The trunk is also not bad, suitable for traveling to the sea.

Review about Subaru Forester 4 2.0 (150 hp) CVT 2016

So became the owner of Subaru Forester. The first emotions from auto positive. Having pleased the flow on the non-rolled car: 270 km of run, and the flow rate - about 12 liters came out.

Oddly enough, Shumka is not bad. Even 2.0 motor in a bundle with the variator behaves well, a comfortable suspension. While satisfied as a boa!

A small addition. Mileage is currently 5,600 km, it seems so far everything is fine. Since there are no snow yet, then we go through asphalt. Well, what to say, the regular Shumka of the new Forester is quite normal, the buzz of tires is not heard so much.

Forester I like. I am very pleased with his suspension. I had to roll in Parabel (who from Tomsk, he knows how), so it behaves on that highway just super!

Review about Subaru Forester 2.0 (150 hp) with the 2017 variator

The manufacturer decided that for the release of 5 generation is still too early, but minor updates in 2016 still made. Once again, we will go through the main characteristics of the crossover and will result in change.

Thorough basic equipment

The manufacturer did not affect basic characteristics Models. All the same permanent four-wheel drive, which has a symmetric location. Thanks to such a system, the perfect balance of the mass of the car is observed, which transmits each wheel the same degree of load.

The dimensions of the model remained the same:

  • Length 4595 mm.
  • Width 1780 mm.
  • Height 1732 mm.
  • Wheel base 2640 mm.
  • Mass 1495 kg.

For years, a proven four-cylinder engine manufacturer has retained unchanged. As well as mechanical gearbox, which, of course, have its own fans, the configuration with the chain variator has been added.
