Great review, really enjoyed it and the bloopers at the end were a lot of fun.
The real strengths of the Subaru go far beyond cosmetics.
Admittedly I’ve not driven the new one but all of the things that I deem important from my 2014 model seem to still be there. The Forester is the only one I’d take off road. There are some worthwhile updates in there too such as the wider rear door for bigger loads and improved performance and economy.
So sporty Mazda awd and big Honda are worst than Hyundai ??? I don t buy it
I’ve had the brand new Forester for around 2 months now and couldn’t be happier it’s amazing value for money. Disagree with most points made in this video, which in general is quite horrible.
Does that Engine/Transmission bother you?
Or is it not really an issue
How is the steering handling , the total drive experience
CarAdvice has got three toddlers talking about their toy car 🚗
I get that ppl lik AEB as a safety feature, but the AEBs in this class work at speeds of less than 50km(only 30km speeds in some cars). The point is u are more likely to stop your car wit the driver applying brakes wit less damage in such speeds than wen u are on the highway speed wher the AEB doesn't work. Guess the top spec in some models get better AEB that work at such speeds. So it's certainly nt a deal breaker to me personally, unless they hav AEB standard in these classes that work at high speeds
Would have loved to see the escape too
Thanks guys, good SUV comparison review.. just missing the Toyota Rav4 and Ford Escape.. would have made it more interesting and complete for consumers in this SUV class !
And the Nissan Xtrail.
How can you do a proper comparison without the obvious segment leader RAV4? Completely missing the point.
A new RAV4 is about to launch in Aus/NZ, so there's little point in reviewing the old model yet again when it hasn't changed in several years.
Hmmmm, the forester is the best from one car channel and last in another. Interesting.
It's just Car Advice hating on Subaru as they always do, mind you the Forester is in my opinion the best here.
Where is the all new Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross?
Why do some people consider crossovers as SUVs?
The raised belt line on vehicles like the Tuscon/Sportage is for safety. Thats one reason its a IHS safety pick plus 😎. It may lessen rear side view but it helps save lives. Sportage hasnt had its facelift yet either. Im sure the interioir will get the same updates as Tuscon. At least similar.
Oh God. Worst in depth review I've ever heard. I'll stick to chasing cars thanks.
Sure sounds as if the CRV would have won you all over had it had autonomous braking. The cargo on the CRV is so much bigger so as a mover of people and things it certainly might be worth the safety upgrade. Come on Honda. Australia deserves the entire suite of safety stuff like you do for North America. You guys get screwed over on cars but being a continental sized island with a low population must be why. Really nice work loved seeing it back to back X 5. As a biased top of the range CRV owner, I would like to point out the rear passenger doors open to 90 degrees and this never fails to amaze me as it makes getting stuff very easy. I sure would love the South Korean warranty as that also amazes me. How the heck do they do that is is weird math or superior parts? Maybe you could analyze how they do the warranty as it supermajor. Not having to worry for 7 years as opposed to 3 is huge. Subbing right now.
Mazda must be quite happy they didn't jump on the small turbo trend as did Honda. Oil mixing with the coolant makes prospects for long term reliability poor.
Vehicles in Australia are way more $$$$ than here in USA......Just purchased a 2019 Sana Fe SEL model for $26,000...luv it !Like it more than my 2016 Subaru Outback premium model.
You're aware that $26000 in the USA is $36000 in Australian dollars? Not to mention that Australian prices include the sales tax (GST), which brings your "$26000" car up to over $39000 in Australian equivalent sticker price.
Our salary is higher than yours. Its all relative.
Great intelligent review. Better than most of the others really like the format. Take no notice of the single figure IQ trolls. Thankyou keep up the good work.
"Thankyou" is two words. Your lack of punctuation also suggests your IQ is likley below 10. No notice has been taken of your comment.
points not very pertinent on everything Y
ou guys say you guys seem to be more keen on interior and exterior details than how they drive
Puke ! It is a paid commercial by Hyundai.
I just bought honda crv,Love it
Medium? There compact suv not medium
Great review guys! Don’t worry about the butt hurt comments, clearly their cars didn’t ‘win’ this review. Personally I just watch these reviews to decide what SUV to buy.
Any comments on CRV fuel smell in the cabin issue?
Donster try not over filling at gas station
I've had mine for over a year and never smelt fuel in the cabin...
Missing a AEB isn’t great deal, it dose t work on high speed anyway
Yes it does.
Trim specs were not well matched across makes and models, even at supposedly targeting a price point. And not mention which options were available if not included. A poor review.
I think Subaru are pitching to the American market now days hence the mundane styling. I'll stick to my 2016 till a more obvious differentiation occurs.
Yes, these guys are lame...but the Sportage is by far the best in and out. More progressive styling than the g.o.a.t. CR-V.
It seems funny to have a SUV which is only front wheel drive. The FWD SUV is more a high riding hatchback.
Is the subaru related to the rav4?
Kishan Mahabier both have 4 wheels and a steering wheel
It's an interesting question, which also occurred to me. Subaru and Toyota cooperate on a number of things. Obviously the BRZ/GT86, also the hybrid system in the new XV is from Toyota. The 2019 RAV4 is on a new "Global Platform" as is the 2019 Forester. Is "Global Platform" a dual Subaru/Toyota effort? No one has said so. 2019 RAV4 and Forester have very similar dimensions, right down to the RAV4 suddenly for the first time even getting almost as much ground clearance as the Forester. I've been thinking a (US) Forester will be my next car early next year (I've driven Legacy's and Outbacks for decades), but the RAV4 hybrid is actually looking very attractive.
I found this review contradictory, criticisms on subjective items. And contradictions on actual features that matter. Heads up bums syndrome I think. My line up would look like: Honda, Hyundai, Subaru, Mazda, Kia.
Very good review guys expecting to see a similar when RAV 4 (2019) is released
This review was quite awkward and slow.
This may seen like an irrelevant question but why do people drive with their headlights on in daylight?
For safety reasons they should make it law.
When Australians call these "Medium SUVs", what would they call vehicles like the CX9 and Kluger, 'Large SUV"? What about even larger vehicles like the 200 Series, are they "Extra-Large"?
CX9 and Kluger would be 'full size' or 'large' SUVs yeah, and then Range Rovers would be 'Luxury Full Size' (ie a bit bigger overall), and then Landcruisers/G-Wagons would be XL lmfao
No nissan xtrail? Top seller suv in world and 3rd best seller in Australia.... You guys are unbelievable.. Very disappointing
Mohammad Khan they don't review shitbox ems.
~40% of the time you see the reviewer face.👎🤦♂️...could not see it after some time.....rest is about the cars....
I can buy a touring for the same money as a max sport !!
The CX5 should have been in third place rather than the Kia. That Kia has a terrible drivetrain. And even though the Mazda has slightly less equipment it gains other things to balance it out!!!
Almost 40 mins, get to the point.

Horrible "review" , sponsored and paid for :) Logic very questionable and down right shady....
Not a bad review imo but way too much of yall talking in the car and not enough shots of what yall are talking about. Make a point move on and show what you're describing instead of the long awkward shots of yall talking and I believed this would be a much better video.
CR-V is the way to go, it has got everything you need
The 4wd system is terrible
Adrian Rivas does it happen in every crv or oly on certain conditions. I hav considered one of them, but I'm worried if this ll be a deal breaker
No it does not . it is the largest and that where it ends.
You guys are real armatures, that would have to be the hands down worst review I've sat through. Most other reviews I've watched from all over the world have the new Forester edging out on top, but you have it last, interesting.
Adam Hend 100% agree with you. There’s no other single review yet that ranks the new Forester behind another vehicle.
Hyundai wins again....they certainly have lifted their game.
.... in sponsored "reviews"
Not a fan of the Pommy guy. Stick to the Ozzies.
CVT on Subaru !
Mary Blanchr - CVT in the Honda also. But the Subaru CVT also includes AWD
Why is the guy British, isn't this meant to be an Australian review 🤔
Why would that matter.
You do realise it's possible to be both Australian AND have a different accent, right? It's called cultural diversity, bud
CR-V Won🎆👍
In shity design of engine and crapy and cheap CVT joke ! Other than oversized has nothing going
I got a 2017 CR-V, but I must say Subaru looks great.
Alex Varela how is it going wit the Crv. I have my eyes on one but have been hearing not so good reviews abt the oil dilution and ultimately requiring servicing almost every 5k kms. Makes u worry abt long term reliability. Can u pls advise
@@ajaiaries I believe the oil dilution issue has been reported in very cold climates - not likely an issue in Aus/NZ. I've had mine for about 1.5 years so difficult to comment on long term reliability, but no issues that have required anything other than a routine 12 month service. Fuel efficient, comfortable, lots of room inside.
The new Toyota RAV4 is the Best
k
Jokers
This review is nothing but a constant cringe. It's just sponsored promotion. I'm sorry but in my opinion the new Subaru Forester is the best vehicle in this test and you guys just absolutely slam it and make anyone watching this video think it's just a whole heap of rubbish essentially. You pick on everything from it's interior styling to comfort to steering, all of which is the best in class hence why it was just awarded DRIVE'S BEST SUV 2018. This review is just pretty disgusting, not just from the Subaru's point of view, but also the Mazda which I would put second here behind the Forester.
Could you paste a link to your comprehensive review the entire class?
If not, I'd keep you opinion to yourself there champ
They criticized it heavily not on actual tangible features, but rather on how they "felt" about it, something that is completely subjective. I am not saying the Subaru is the best, i think the Honda is a strong competitor, the Hyundai and Kia are not bad, but seriously under powered to the point of being unsafe, and the Mazda does have poor NVH, infotainment starting to date and compromised packaging things that will affect ownership long term and not just in the first couple of weeks.
this video is like a middle age sex and city male car version. not much about cars
This is basically a fight for second place because 2019 Toyota RAV4 takes first place.
Not for me!
Subaru!!!!
Small suv. medium is like the mazda cx9
MrPicky400 nope small is like the Xv and vitara
@@wheresmycheese8511 my friends lets dont argue but i not sure about australia but in the usa for example these are compact suv and compact fall under small suv. For example mazda 3 is the compact sedan while cx5 is compact suv falling under small suv. Midsize sedan are like mazda6 and midsize suv is like cx9. Large suv is like Porsche cayenne. As i said probably is according to the country but thanks for the input
bloody Ford ads
These are compact SUVs.
I saw 100000 mazda 3 in this video
My god, how boring is this. 3 old men talking crap. It was like watching 3 accountants get excited about a change in a tax law.
unsuscribed ,,,,
2019 rav4 better then all these suvs
Below Hyundai, Subaru and Mazda as far as I go. The RAV tries to look so macho and fails.
This is nothing but an extrmely cringy Hyundai commercial. How can you even sleep at night!? Shame on you!
Envy...?
"Highest-Ranked Brands and Models
Genesis ranks highest in overall initial quality with a score of 68 PP100. Kia (72 PP100) ranks second and Hyundai (74 PP100) ranks third. This is the first time that three Korean brands are at the top of the overall ranking, and it is the fourth consecutive year that Kia is the highest-ranking Mass Market brand. Porsche(79 PP100)ranks fourth and Ford (81 PP100) ranks fifth.
Mazda is the most-improved brand, with owners reporting 25 PP100 fewer problems than in 2017. Other brands with strong improvements include Mitsubishi (20 PP100 improvement), Cadillac (15 PP100 improvement), Infiniti (15 PP100 improvement), Hyundai (14 PP100 improvement) and Lexus (14 PP100 improvement).
The parent company receiving the most model-level awards for its various brands is Ford Motor Company(five awards), followed by Hyundai Motor Group (four),and BMW, General Motors and Nissan (three each)."
www.jdpower.com/business/press-releases/2018-us-initial-quality-study-iqs
Consumer Reports (US) list Hyundai as 11th out of 32 brands in quality, Kia ranks 6th with Genesis placing 1st again. They cant all be wrong.
Obviously on sleeping tablets.lol
@@techpappee JD power is an advertisement company who is payed by manufacturers to give them complete false awards. Don’t listen to their lies.
@@HughRussell06 Consumer Reports also ranks Genesis at the top, number 2 for 2020 and number 1 in 2019. It by far not just JD Power.
@@techpappee still, a lot of what JD power says (not necessarily about genesis/Hyundai) is completely false and paid by the manufacturer
Such a boring review. No thrill at all
Renault Koleos
I suppose Hyundai paid more than the others....
Don't know why they tested a Honda Shitbox.
@@stendecstretcher5678 Because they can
False
The arrogance of some people...shame on you.
Boring
Cr-v engine design fails.. sportage looks better
Wow, longest Korean car add I've had the displeasure to watch.
Buy a skoda superb.
Two of my work mates had the Skoda, the both had numerous problems and got rid of them. They are well known now for reliability issues along with the VW's that they basically are.
lmao you guys don't know shit about Reviews lol, Kia is 5th for sure, 4th Subaru, 3rd Tucson, 2nd Mazda cx-5, 1st Honda CRV.
Yeah!
The Subaru best one .. Korean cars the last..
😂😂😂😂
Yep, theres some Chinese in korean design and manufacturing.
Kia is the best car maker these days....sorento is the best..
@@dannyseo0011 But Kia does not have off-road capabilities
