Subaru Forester: Australia's Most Honored Vehicle since 1997 & Favorite among Active Lyme Residents

For seventeen years and counting, the Subaru Forester is the most honored vehicle in Australia, according to Torque News. For active folks in Lyme, CT, the Forester and Subaru brand in general has been a long-time favorite, as well. For those new to the Subaru scene, you're probably asking yourself: That's a big statement to make for an entire country and continent--why is the Forester the most honored vehicle in Australia?

Needless to say, this isn't your average SUV. If you've ever been "Down Under," you know that the varied terrain for the active driver calls for a vehicle that's engineered for the challenge. The Forester carries special traits such as Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, Vehicle Dynamics Control, a horizontally-laid-out SUBARU BOXER® engine, an available Lineartronic® Continuously Variable Transmission, available EyeSight® driver assist technology, and available premium audio systems--all of which prove its versatility and dependability.

The Forester's been a hit particularly in Australia since its 1997 launch, and a range of organizations like the Australasian New Car Assessment Program-- among others--are continuously impressed every time they evaluate the Forester based on set criteria like design, functionality, value, and performance.

There you have it; the Forester was named the Best All-Wheel Drive Sports Utility Vehicle under $45K Australia's Best Car awards, and it's also raked in awards stateside (i.e. Named among Consumer Reports top four "best picks").
