2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness Review: Enhanced Off-Road Capabilities

When Subaru debuted its next-generation 2024 Forester, there was one trim missing: the popular Wilderness. A 2025 Forester Wilderness was still available but only on the outgoing platform and with limited production. Enter the 2026 model, keeping the off-road vibes going in Subaru’s top-selling compact SUV while adding a long list of changes. Fundamentally, this isn’t a huge departure from the previous Wilderness flavor, nor does it need to be. This latest update simply enhances… Read More →

2026 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid First Drive Review: More Power, More MPG, More Fun

The new 2026 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid is fun. That’s not a characteristic of most small crossover SUVs, and it’s even less so for most hybrids. Yet, hopping over an undulating camp road in the shadow of Mt. Adams in Washington, kicking up dust clouds into towering pines, then whipping the newest Subaru through corners with the traction control light flashing off as if it were a warning against fun, I smiled. Then I did it… Read More →

2026 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid Solves All My Problems With The Crosstrek

I lived with a 2025 Subaru Crosstrek for a week earlier this year, and came away from the experience with a great admiration for the car. I liked its $30,000 price, I liked the capability provided by its standard all-wheel-drive system, I liked its spacious interior, and I liked the fact that unlike most of its competitors, it felt like a family member rather than another appliance. My biggest complaints were the loud and relatively… Read More →

2026 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid Drive: It’s a Subaru First and a Hybrid Second

2026 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid Drive: It’s a Subaru First and a Hybrid Second

Hybrid powertrains seem like a no-brainer for Subaru. When the automaker surveyed its buyers on causes they’re most passionate about, 34 percent said wildlife and nature preservation, and 23 percent expressed interest in environmentalism. Given the brand’s nature-loving clientele, it’s surprising the company hasn’t embraced hybrids sooner—especially because Subarus have typically lagged behind the competition in fuel economy, in part due to their standard all-wheel drive. But after a couple of false starts in the… Read More →

Imagine driving a Subaru Impreza rally veteran from the year you were born!

This 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX ST1 Prodrive once competed for rally glory in the WRC. At last weekend’s Bernina Gran Turismo, the car was raced up the hill by Victoria Dold – who shares more with the rally rocket than just her birth year. Among the 50 thundering and flame-spitting race cars at last weekend’s Bernina Gran Turismo, there was one car that wasn’t as loud and spectacular as the others at first glance –… Read More →
