The 2024 Subaru Forester Touring is not just a vehicle; it is a sophisticated partner designed to integrate seamlessly into the upscale, residential character of our local communities. Whether you are navigating the quiet, tree-lined streets of Glendale, MO or heading out for a morning of errands and community involvement, this crossover provides the prestige and reliability that modern suburban life demands. The Forester Touring represents the pinnacle of the model line, offering a refined driving experience that appeals to established families and professionals alike. Its design language speaks to a balance of rugged capability and polished elegance, making it just as suitable for a gala event as it is for a weekend trip to the park. By choosing this flagship trim, you are opting for a vehicle that understands the nuances of Missouri driving, from the rolling terrain of our residential neighborhoods to the fast-paced flow of our local highways. It is a vehicle built for those who value privacy, high-quality engineering, and a strong sense of local identity. Performance & Capability Under the hood of this 2024 Subaru Forester Touring lies a highly efficient and responsive 2.5L H-4 gasoline direct injection engine. This DOHC power plant, featuring variable valve control, delivers a smooth and consistent 182HP, providing plenty of Pep for merging onto the highway during your daily commute from Chesterfield, MO. The engine is an aluminum block configuration, mounted longitudinally to optimize the vehicle's center of gravity, which contributes to the stable and confident handling Subaru owners have come to expect. The power is managed by a 7-speed Lineartronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), which includes a Sequential shift with steering wheel controls for those moments when you want more direct engagement with the road. This transmission is paired with a Lock-up transmission system and a Transmission oil cooler to ensure longevity and consistent performance even during the warmer Missouri summer months. For those focused on efficiency, the Auto stop-start engine system helps conserve fuel while idling at long traffic lights, contributing to an impressive 26 city / 33 hwy MPG rating. True to its heritage, the Forester Touring features Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a full-time AWD system that provides exceptional traction across various road conditions. Whether you are dealing with a sudden rainstorm or the occasional light dusting of snow on the rolling hills of the suburbs, the Full-time AWD system works in tandem with Active Torque Vectoring to keep you firmly planted. Drivers can further customize their experience using the SI-DRIVE driver selectable drivetrain mode, allowing you to prioritize fuel economy or a more spirited throttle response depending on your destination. The Standard ride suspension, featuring an Independent front suspension with struts and a Double wishbone rear suspension, ensures that every journey remains comfortable and composed, regardless of the terrain.

Safety & Driver Assistance Subaru's commitment to safety is on full display in the Forester Touring, which utilizes the advanced EyeSight suite of driver-assist technologies. This includes EyeSight Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, which helps maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead and keeps you centered in your lane during highway travel. The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking and Pre-Collision Throttle Management systems act as an extra set of eyes, providing forward collision mitigation and pedestrian impact prevention when necessary. Navigating busy suburban intersections is safer thanks to Blind Spot Detection (BSD) and Rear collision mitigation. The Rear camera with washer ensures you always have a clear view of what is behind you, even in messy weather. For added peace of mind, the DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System (DMS) uses Facial memory recognition to monitor for signs of driver fatigue or distraction, providing alerts to keep you focused on the drive. The vehicle is constructed with a comprehensive airbag system, including 7 airbags total. This includes Dual front impact airbags, Dual front side impact airbags, Curtain first and second-row overhead airbags, and a Driver side knee airbag. Braking performance is handled by 4-Wheel Disc Brakes with a Four channel ABS brakes system and Brake assist. The Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) feature is particularly useful in stop-and-go traffic, allowing you to take your foot off the brake pedal while the vehicle remains securely stopped. Exterior & Design The exterior of the 2024 Subaru Forester Touring is finished in a striking Autumn Green Metallic, a color that perfectly complements the natural beauty of the Missouri landscape. The vehicle sits on 18 x 7-inch machined w/painted accents aluminum wheels, which provide a sophisticated stance. The Black grille and Metal-look front and rear bumper inserts add a touch of modern style, while the Body-colored front and rear bumpers maintain a cohesive, high-end appearance. Visibility is enhanced by Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH), which are directionally adaptive to illuminate corners as you turn. These LED low and high beam headlights are paired with High Beam Assist (HBA), which automatically toggles between high and low beams based on surrounding traffic. The LED front fog lights and LED daytime running lights ensure that the Forester is visible in all weather conditions. Functional design elements include Roof rails for additional cargo capacity and a Rear lip spoiler for improved aerodynamics. The Active grille shutters help manage airflow to the engine, improving efficiency on the highway. The Auto-Dimming Exterior Mirror w/Approach Light and Heated driver and passenger side door mirrors with integrated Turn signal indicator mirrors provide both convenience and safety.
