CONSUMER REVIEWS

Very good car

Great car, value for money, feature rich. Highly recommended for anyone looking for mid-large size SUV.

Best Car I have driven

When you sit,it just makes you feel you own and control the car and the road at the same time....Most cars will just give you way all the time and even wave to you .....

First Impressions

I have read conflicting reviews about the performance of the eboxer engine so I test drove this to determine which reviews were more accurate. In summary, I think that all the reviews were correct - it depends on which baseline the reviewer was comparing the eboxer Forester to. Compared to the SJ 2.0 NA Forester that I own, the Eboxer seems to lack oomph and agility. It seems to do that only because it is heavier. The weight plant the vehicle more securely to the ground. I find the acceleration more than adequate and overtaking in city traffic does not pose any problem. I would love to test the overtaking at highway speed though. This car should be on the list of those who wants to see what hybrids can do without having to worry about the extensive electronics and motors that comes with normal hybrids. It does not save a lot of fuel - at least this is what almost all reviewers agree on. But it is a proper SUV which can handle rough terrain. The ride is quiet especially the very few times it went on full EV mode. I think drivers of previous generations of NA Foresters will have no issue with the performance of this car once they realised that the ride characteristics is influence more by the weight and not by the power of the engine. Not I gave a 5-star rating on reliability because I need to tick this. - So I used the current SJ Forester which I own as a reference.

I like this car
