Subaru Forester 
The fifth generation of the Forester sticks around for one more year with no major changes to report. Until the brand new 2025 model arrives, look for a naturally aspirated 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine delivering 182 horsepower. A more potent, turbocharged engine or a fuel-efficient hybrid option would have been nice, but at least there’s Subaru’s excellent AWD system and a rugged Wilderness model with increased off-road capability. The latter can also tow up to 3,000 lbs.
Pros
- Excellent all-wheel drive
- Very good visibility
- Practical vehicle
- Off-road capabilities of the Wilderness version
Cons
- No electrified version
- Poorly performing 2.5 liter engine
- Vehicle that is growing old
