See them all

This Bestest-approved 2023 Subaru Forester Touring for sale in Santa Ana is Subaru certified, so its powertrain warranty is good until around May 2030 or another 77,000 miles.

Every Forester has all-wheel drive, and this one has the 182-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder, which the EPA rates at 29 mpg combined. When you check availability, we'll also email you a link to the free Carfax vehicle history report (when available), which includes the exact in-service date and how much warranty is left.

Questions shoppers ask about this Forester

Is Subaru certified worth it?

Partly. Subaru's certified program extends powertrain coverage, for the engine and transmission, from 5 years or 60,000 miles to 7 years or 100,000 miles from the first sale, with no deductible, but it adds no bumper-to-bumper coverage beyond whatever is left of the factory 3-year/36,000-mile warranty. In Orange County, a certified used Forester usually lists for well under $1,000 more than a non-certified one, miles and trim being equal. The powertrain coverage transfers to you in full.

The Touring is the top of the Forester lineup. Over the Limited it adds:

​

  • 8.0-inch STARLINK multimedia with navigation
  • Harman Kardon premium speaker system
  • Black or saddle brown perforated leather upholstery
  • 8-way power front passenger seat
  • Two-position driver's seat memory
  • Heated outboard rear seats
  • DriverFocus distraction mitigation system

​

It carries forward the Limited's automatic emergency steering, EyeSight driver assist technology, blind-spot detection, leather-wrapped shift lever handle, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and panoramic power moonroof.

The 2023 Subaru Forester carries over the 2022 refresh, with all-wheel drive and a 182-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder with a CVT on every trim. The 2023 Forester is part of the fifth-generation Forester, which ended with the 2024 model year.
