The new sixth generation Subaru Forester will become available in Russian dealerships in October of the current year, according to the several dealers of the brand.
The new generation model is based on the previous platform, but has received a completely new body, with an integrated frame. At the same time, the company changed the welding method. So, side panels are attached to the floor separately, and then the rest of the elements are added. Previously, a ready-made body was attached to the floor. The new method made it possible to make the structure 10% stiffer due to the integrated frame.
The power unit is represented by 2.5-liter 183-HP air breather engine with 241 Nm of torque, coupled with a Lineartronic CVT.
According to classifieds, the novelty cost starts from 5.3 million rubles.
