2024 Subaru Forester Wilderness - Last Year Of Physical Climate Controls!

In this video, I review the 2024 Subaru Forester Wilderness.. With the impending refresh for the 2025 model year, I show you what's new for 2024, as well as what to expect for the 2025 model year. So the question is, should you buy now, or wait for the 2025? Watch the video to decide that for yourself!

Wow. best sound quality in a video for the stereo system I've seen so far. Sounded great!

[@robertgray2082]

I think your review is the Best one I've have seen ......nise job !!!!!!

[@KelliBarr-bostonbruins]

Thanks for this EXCELLENT review! Just got ours on Friday and we are still learning how to use all the bells and whistles!

[@gilioidable]

Great review of the car that I drive! You liked the pep and you didn't even have it in Sport Sharp mode!!!

[@riffrockband]

great video!

[@michaelgrow8630]

Another well done program. Peace.

[@703Speed]

Thank you Michael!

[@riseeight]

This was helpful. We just bought a 2024 wilderness and are trying to figure out all of the bells and whistles.

[@Thebusdriverandgamermorefan790]

Amazing review bro.

[@703Speed]

Thanks man 👊🏼

[@RM.....]

Only Subaru would make the Wilderness with NO HEATED STEERING WHEEL. Come on Subaru .

[@steve8803]

@RM it is heated in Canada

[@DynaLowrider]

Deal killer for me. I like my heated seats and steering wheel.

[@user-hz5ov1vu5t]

We have heated steering wheel in Canada

[@Doc1855]

I have a 24 Outback Wilderness and it has a heated steering wheel. Heated front and rear seats.

[@eddiep812]

hmmm...
I noticed Honda does the same thing. Why does the Canadian market get the heated steering wheel... but not the USA market?

[@Aschoolbusandsimulatorfan2219]

Insane new Subaru Forester SUV I can own.

[@tzolkosky]

Going to try to get a 2024 wilderness this coming year. The motivation is the 2025 model. They took a decent looking suv with nice curves and made it extra vanilla in 2025.

[@703Speed]

Lol

[@deekshithreddy6663]

lol , yeah the exact reason why I'm going for a 2024 soon but I wish they had led rear turn sig

[@eddiep812]

Same here. I'm not diggin' the new body style. Too bland.

[@marekmroczkowski2775]

2025 subaru forester looks like a Ford escape, no more unique style of forester that is way I put deposit on my forester wilderness 2 days ago.

[@subiesojourner777]

Ditto, the question I have is how long will the 2024's be available before the 2025's come out. In the 2025 I don't care for that big screen and fewer hands on knobs. Lastly, since Toyota has some ownership in Subaru I wonder how much influence they have in the new 2025 design process?

[@rhymeskill]

Great review! Very detailed. I’m trying to decide between the Forester and Outback Wilderness. I think I prefer the Forester.

[@703Speed]

For me - I prefer the Outback Wilderness. More power and I like how it sits. I have a video of one of those too

[@PapaA7145]

Just purchased a 2024 Forester Wilderness. The 2025 looks like a first gen Ford Explorer, no where near the Subaru “look” that has made them famous. Some reservations, the Outback has more comfortable front seats with the thigh support extension and the 2025 model has gone back to a more standard and reliable thermostat. Have not taken a trip yet but the seats are comfortable but the thigh support would be appreciated.

[@ErnDogg209]

They changed the foot pedals as well

[@rcinematic]

If I had moneys, I’d get this

[@sidepasser]

I am picking my Subaru Wilderness 2024 up tomorrow and wish it had AC seats - Alabama gets HOT in the spring, summer and fall. I can live without heated seats in the winter. I will miss having a CD player too.

[@johnw9177]

Yea, that’s the one thing I really wanted and didn’t get in this vehicle

[@dennisjanwolterding384]

I traded my 2021 Forester Touring in for a 2023 Forester Wilderness. Both are wonderful cars, but the Wilderness is phenomenal! If you don't mind giving up some mpg's the Wilderness IS the Forester to buy!

[@WildernessForever]

I have a 2022 Wilderness. Incredible car. 2024 Crosstrek Premium cant compare

[@shylessmo341]

Does the Subaru Forester Wilderness have a pandemic moonroof❓

[@dhrtiwalter8670]

I would wait and get 2025 for better seats

[@gregrose8941]

Good job! thank you for mentioning no more cd player for2024 only reviewer to mention that.I want to add wilderness comes with extra transmission cooler and larger radiator moter for cooling.

[@703Speed]

That makes sense.. haha no problem

[@stephenvancampen7393]

Haven’t seen any reviews with the hitch installed. Is there an option to get a frame bolted hitch?

[@clintonwhittaker6000]

@@stephenvancampen7393 Yeppers! We have one on the way with the towing hitch installed on it.

[@lukiw7044]

Shame that CD player isn't available in 2024 MY. There are a lot of people which don't want to swap their car in mulimedia station. Great review as alwways. Greetings

[@rubyovalle4841]

Still Available on the highest trim level. I looked it up

[@johnfricano2591]

Nice video! A question though. Is there somewhere to stow the back cargo shade if you want to haul something a little bit taller than the wheel wells? Seems like that would be a useful thing rather than having to take it completely out of the vehicle and then reinstalling when needed?

[@703Speed]

Hmm. Maybe in the 2nd row on the floor

[@wf415]

you can store it in the same area as the spare

[@nerdsunscripted624]

There’s a cutout for it underneath the floorboard in the trunk, it goes on top of the spare

[@JoeBuck-uc3bl]

Yes. I did.

[@JoeBuck-uc3bl]

I rushed to get a 2024 of the color I wanted. OMG that obnoxiously large infotainment screen is now gonna plaque the Forester too in 2025 ugh.

[@Doc1855]

The 24 Forester Dropped 2 horsepower, so it’s Down to a Gutless 180.

[@rolandaguas2070]

Unfortunately the Canadian Subaru wilderness come with steering wheel heaters !

[@kb94596]

Pricing is getting a bit out of control. Subarus used to be a great value.

[@richardlanier2113]

Yeah it's crazy how inflation hits everything and doesn't just randomly skip Subaru. 🤔

[@703Speed]

Yup.. A few years ago these were low-mid 30's. I wonder what the pricing of the 2025 will be like..

[@tommymas1]

X-Mode has nothing to do with torque vectoring.

[@spartanj2957]

A rig with no heated seats and steering wheel won't b parked in my garage.

[@the0therst1g]

Brand new engine. Subaru owners manual: "Do not go over 4000rpm for the first 1000 miles break in period". Reviewer: revs to 6000...

[@703Speed]

How do you think other people test driving it drive? Sorry to burst your bubble, but people want to feel the beans on the vehicle they are potentially purchasing..

[@the0therst1g]

Oh I'm very aware ... Just grinding your gears and driving your engagement numbers up :) Very thorough review 👍
What would you recommend between this or the limited trim?

[@barryg4452]

Will the roof support an 800 pound Gorilla?

[@703Speed]

Lol.. If that’s what you put up there, yes, in theory it should

[@gregrose8941]

Gorilla yes,but your Girlfriend will bend it

[@MrApplesaucestuff]
