Subaru Forester
Completely redesign for 2019, the Subaru Forester remains a family—and dog—favourite. The much wider trunk opening and the available power liftgate increase convenience. Fuel economy, durability and safety are other strong arguments here. Most of the trim levels come with the EyeSight suite of advanced driver-assist features. Subaru’s acclaimed AWD system also makes the Forester a capable vehicle off the beaten path, like around the cottage.
