The 2025 Subaru Forester is expected to have a towing capacity of 1,500 pounds, which is a significant increase over the current model’s 1,000-pound capacity. This will make the Forester a more versatile vehicle for those who need to tow small trailers, boats, or campers.
The increased towing capacity is due in part to the Forester’s new platform, which is shared with the larger Outback and Ascent models. The new platform is stiffer and more rigid, which allows it to handle heavier loads. The Forester also has a new, more powerful engine that produces 182 horsepower, up from 166 horsepower in the current model. This extra power will make it easier to tow heavy loads up hills and in other challenging conditions.
