Explore the Rugged 2025 Subaru Forester Wilderness

The 2025 Subaru Forester Wilderness takes this popular compact SUV to new heights with its adventure-ready upgrades and features. Building on the standard Forester's proven versatility and capability, the Wilderness trim equips the Forester to venture further off the beaten path and take on tougher terrain. Outdoor enthusiasts and weekend warriors in West Warwick will especially appreciate the Forester Wilderness' combination of practicality and ruggedness.

All-Terrain Capability

At the heart of the Forester Wilderness is a 2.5-liter direct-injection Subaru BOXER 4-cylinder engine producing 182 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque. The Lineartronic CVT features an 8-speed manual mode with steering wheel paddle shifters for more engaging driving. Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive optimizes traction on any surface, while a revised dual-function X-Mode system with Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud settings and low speed/low ratio gradient control provides extra capability in challenging conditions you might encounter beyond Providence or out past Pawtucket.

With 9.2 inches of ground clearance, the Wilderness has a higher stance than other Forester models. Longer coil springs and shock absorbers provide added ground clearance, while exclusive 17-inch alloy wheels in matte black finish wear Yokohama GEOLANDAR all-terrain tires for improved performance on mud, sand, and gravel. From Johnston to Plainfield, these upgrades give the Forester Wilderness increased capability on both trails and roads.

Utilitarian Exterior Features

The rugged exterior design features black front, side and rear cladding, a black anti-glare hood decal, and black exterior badges and side mirrors. Anodized copper-finish accents on the front grille, tow hook anchor points, and roof rail tie-down points add a distinctive look inspired by outdoor gear. An available LED upgrade further enhances visibility. With standard raised roof rails, the Wilderness offers up to 800 pounds tie-down capacity, so you can easily carry kayaks, bikes, cargo boxes and more for all your East Greenwich adventures.

Adventure-Ready Interior

Inside the spacious, versatile cabin, durable StarTex water-repellant upholstery and all-weather rubber floor mats are ready for muddy gear and wet dogs. The 11.6-inch STARLINK Multimedia Plus system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto makes it easy to access maps, music, and apps on the go. Advanced EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and standard LED Steering Responsive Headlights provide added confidence and peace of mind on every drive through Sterling or Coventry.
