2021 Subaru Forester Premium: The Ultimate Versatile Crossover for the Mid-South Finding a vehicle that balances the demands of a professional career with the spontaneous needs of a weekend lifestyle can be a challenge, but the 2021 Subaru Forester Premium makes it look easy. Imagine starting your morning in the quiet, tree-lined neighborhoods of Arlington, TN, where the air is crisp and the day is full of potential. As you pull out of your driveway, you are not just driving a car; you are commanding a vehicle engineered for the realities of suburban life. Whether you are heading into the city for a high-stakes meeting or dropping the kids off at practice, this crossover provides a sense of composure that is hard to find elsewhere. Residents of Cordova, TN often find themselves navigating a mix of bustling commercial corridors and peaceful residential streets. The Forester is designed specifically for these transitions, offering a high seating position that provides an excellent view of the road ahead. Its footprint is perfectly sized for navigating crowded parking lots at the local shopping center while remaining spacious enough inside to handle a full load of groceries or gear for a day at the park. This is a vehicle that understands the rhythm of your life, providing a seamless bridge between your responsibilities and your passions. Engineered for Confidence and Efficiency Under the hood of this Magnetite Gray Metallic crossover lies a 2.5L H-4 gasoline direct injection engine. This DOHC power plant features variable valve control and is designed to run on regular unleaded fuel, providing a balanced 182HP that feels responsive whether you are merging onto the interstate or cruising through the outskirts of Millington, TN. The heart of the Subaru experience is the Full-time AWD system, which works tirelessly to monitor road conditions and distribute power where it is needed most. This isn't just for off-road adventures; it is for those rainy afternoons when the pavement gets slick and you want that extra layer of security for your family. The driving experience is further refined by the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) with Lock-up transmission and Overdrive, ensuring that power delivery is smooth and efficient. For those who want more control over their driving dynamics, the SI-DRIVE selectable mode transmission allows you to tailor the engine performance to suit your current needs, whether you are looking for maximum fuel efficiency or a bit more spirit during your commute. The inclusion of an Auto stop-start engine system helps conserve fuel while you are waiting at long lights, contributing to an impressive 33 highway MPG. This means fewer stops at the pump during your weekly travels between the various communities surrounding Memphis. The chassis is built to handle the diverse terrain of the region, from the flat stretches near the river to the gently rolling hills of the eastern suburbs. With Independent front suspension featuring a strut design and a Double wishbone rear suspension, the Forester absorbs road imperfections with ease. The Aluminum engine block and longitudinal mounting contribute to a lower center of gravity, which enhances stability and cornering. Whether you are navigating the suburban streets of Marion, AR or taking a longer drive across state lines, the Standard ride suspension ensures that every passenger remains comfortable and undisturbed by the world outside. Seamless Connectivity for the Modern Commuter In today's fast-paced environment, staying connected is a necessity, not a luxury. The 2021 Subaru Forester Premium is equipped with a 6.5 inch primary display that serves as the nerve center for your digital life. Featuring STARLINK/Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smart device integration, this system allows you to mirror your favorite navigation, music, and communication apps directly onto the Primary monitor touchscreen. This means you can easily find the quickest route to a new restaurant or listen to your favorite podcast while navigating the daily commute from the suburbs. Communication is handled safely and intuitively through Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity. With Steering wheel mounted audio controls and Voice activated audio controls, you can change the track, adjust the volume, or make a phone call without ever taking your eyes off the road. The Digital/analog instrumentation display includes a 4.20 inch gauge cluster display, providing vital vehicle information at a glance. For those who prefer their own curated playlists, the 2 USB ports and Auxiliary Audio Input provide plenty of options for connecting external devices, while Wireless streaming ensures a cable-free experience for everyone in the cabin. The tech suite also includes helpful features that enhance your awareness of the environment. An Outside temperature display and ECO feedback display gauge keep you informed about external conditions and your driving efficiency in real-time. The Fixed audio antenna ensures consistent radio reception, while the 6 Speakers provide clear, balanced sound throughout the interior. Whether you are listening to local news or a high-energy playlist to get your day started, the technology in this Forester is designed to be helpful and unobtrusive, making every mile more enjoyable. You can view our used vehicle inventory to see more tech-forward options like this one. A Cabin Designed for Comfort and Utility Step inside the 2021 Subaru Forester Premium and you are greeted by a refined Black interior featuring high-quality Cloth front seat upholstery. The driver is treated to an 8-way power driver seat that includes 2-way power lumbar support, ensuring that even the longest drives across the Mid-South remain fatigue-free. On those chilly mornings, the Heated front seats and Heated door mirrors provide immediate relief from the cold, while the Automatic climate control system maintains a perfect temperature regardless of what is happening outside. The sense of space inside the Forester is amplified by the Panoramic Power moonroof, which floods the cabin with natural light and provides a great view for both front and rear passengers. The Leather Steering Wheel and Chrome and metal-look interior accents add a touch of sophistication to the functional design. For families, the 60-40 folding rear seats and Manual reclining rear seats offer incredible flexibility. Whether you are hauling sports equipment, flat-pack furniture, or camping gear, the Roll-up cargo cover and Cargo area concealed storage keep your belongings secure and out of sight. Utility is built into every corner of this crossover. From the 3 12V power outlets for charging devices to the 8 beverage holders scattered throughout the cabin, every detail has been considered. The Remote activated perimeter approach lighting welcomes you back to the vehicle in dark parking lots, while the All-in-one remote fob simplifies entry and ignition. With Rear under seat climate control ducts and Height adjustable rear seat head restraints, those in the back row are treated with the same level of care as those in the front. This is a vehicle that truly understands the diverse needs of a modern suburban household. Advanced Safety and Driver Assistance Safety has always been a cornerstone of the Subaru brand, and this Forester is a prime example of that commitment. It comes equipped with the EyeSight Adaptive Cruise Control system, which helps maintain a safe following distance during highway travel, making the drive between Arlington, TN and the city center much less stressful. The EyeSight Lane Keep Assist and Lane Departure Warning systems provide gentle corrections and alerts to help keep you centered in your lane, while the EyeSight Sway Warning acts as a driver attention monitor to detect signs of fatigue. In the event of a potential collision, the EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking system can apply full braking force to help avoid or mitigate an impact. This is complemented by EyeSight Pre-Collision Throttle Management, which can reduce engine power to help minimize front impact damage. The vehicle also features a comprehensive suite of 7 airbags, including a Driver side knee airbag and Curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. For those with young children, the Manual rear child safety door locks and Airbag occupancy sensor provide essential peace of mind. Maneuvering in tight spaces is made easier with the Back-Up Camera, which includes a dedicated washer to ensure a clear view even in inclement weather. The 4-wheel disc brakes with 4-wheel antilock (ABS) and Brake assist provide confident stopping power, while the Active Torque Vectoring acts as a brake-actuated limited-slip differential to improve handling during cornering. With LED daytime running lights and LED brake lights, you remain visible to other drivers at all times. This Forester is not just a mode of transport; it is a protective bubble for you and your most precious cargo. Sophisticated Exterior and Practical Design The exterior of the 2021 Subaru Forester Premium is finished in a striking Magnetite Gray Metallic paint that perfectly complements its rugged yet refined silhouette. The 17-inch machined aluminum wheels with painted accents provide a modern look while maintaining the durability needed for daily use. The Grille with chrome bar and Body-colored door handles add a premium touch, while the Black bodyside cladding and Black wheel well trim protect the lower body from road debris. Visibility is a priority, and this vehicle delivers with LED low and high beam headlights that feature Auto-leveling and Directionally adaptive technology. This means the light path follows your steering, illuminating corners before you enter them. The High Beam Assist (HBA) automatically toggles your high beams based on traffic conditions, ensuring you always have the best possible view of the road without blinding other drivers. The Front fog lights provide extra clarity during heavy rain or misty mornings near the river. Practicality is woven into the design with Roof rails that are ready for your favorite rack accessories, whether you are heading out for a bike ride or a kayaking trip. The Rear lip spoiler and Active grille shutters improve aerodynamics, while the Compact spare tire is conveniently mounted under the cargo floor to maximize interior space. Every element of the exterior, from the Heated windshield wiper park to the Deep tinted windows, has been chosen to enhance your ownership experience.

I had the best experience purchasing my 2024 Outback Wilderness addition from Zach Cowan! He is very welcoming as is the entire dealership. Zach is extremely knowledgeable and detailed with the Subaru line up. This will be our second Subaru from Jim Keras Subaru (2018 Forester) but out of any car buying experience I have ever had, Zach has been the absolute best to work with. He answered every question I had and met every need. I highly recommend Zach Cowan as he exceeded our expectations in a salesman. If you want a great experience at Jim Keras Subaru go see Zach.

What a relaxing, no pressure experience. I've been wanting a green Subaru for years. We talked to Caleb on the phone, came in, and were helped by Emma immediately. She was a dream to work with and helped me find something I loved. The whole staff was incredibly sweet, patient, and helpful. Definitely willing to take the drive back for any maintenance and servicing, the atmosphere was great.

I looked at the online inventory for a Subaru Ascent and a fancy Onyx edition caught my eye. I drove up there and didn't see it so I went inside and was greeted by a Mr William Feild. We took a seat at his desk and he located the vehicle, drove it up front and i was amazed. This car was for my wife and I told Mr Feild everything about this car was perfect. He was patient and answered every question I had. Not the everyday car sales person who tries to cram a deal down your throat. I got his card and told him i needed to convince my wife to test drive it ASAP. He respected me leaving and returning at a later time which happened to be 2 hours later. Mr Feild met the family, we test drove it and the wife wanted it. We jumped into the deal making and WOW! They offered KBB value for my trade-in on the first go. We transitioned into the finance office with David Fleming and he took care of our concerns with extended warranties, gap insurance and financing. He worked with us for a comfortable payment for the entire package. Bottom line we got amazing customer service and exceptional value.
