Why the 2.0XT is Special
This isn't your average Forester. While most Foresters on the road have the standard 2.5L engine, this 2.0XT Touring features the rare Direct-Injection Turbocharged (DIT) engine.
- WRX DNA: It shares its engine architecture with the Subaru WRX, delivering 250 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque.
- The Last of its Kind: Subaru stopped making the Turbo Forester after 2018. This 2016 model represents the pinnacle of Forester performance that you simply cannot buy new anymore.
- Dual Personality: It drives like a sports sedan when you want it to, but offers 8.7 inches of ground clearance and X-MODE for when the pavement ends.
