A popular compact car that behaves like a passenger car on the road, it is equivalent to an SUV in terms of spaciousness and off-road features. In 2005, the Subaru Forester was upgraded, acquiring an aluminum hood, AVCS system. A version of the Subaru STi with the same turbo engine as the 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STi was also released in Japan, but thanks to a different engine, the power output was an impressive 320 hp (240 kW). Thanks to safety, excellent handling, perfect for the narrow streets of the city, the high-seat car is highly valued. Disadvantages include poor economy, cramped rear seats and annoying noise.
