Subaru fans will be able to feast their eyes on the new 2014 pre-production Subaru Forester when it stops at Plymouth Rock, MA on Monday, January 14th at 9:45am. The showing marks the 7th day of an East coast tour sponsored by Subaru New England, and gives enthusiasts a unique chance to take an exclusive look at the all-new Forester before it fills our showrooms this spring. Unleashed earlier this year at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show, this event will be one of few chances to see the totally reinvigorated Forester before launch.


One of Subaru's most anticipated new models, the 2014 Forester has captured attention from both diehard Subaru fans and a new class of luxury SUV drivers accustomed to the cabin sophistication and family friendliness of BMW and Mercedes mid-sized SUVs. The third generation Forester maintains Subaru's tradition of rugged all-weather vehicles, with its state of the art X-mode - an e-differential system that distributes torque across the left and right wheels to prevent individual wheels from losing traction on slick surfaces (not to mention an 8.7 inch ground clearance and hill decent control that make the vehicle an agile competitor off road and down the mountain). For drivers more accustomed to family outings and weekend getaways, the new 2014 Forester has larger door and cargo areas, with a three-inch increase in rear legroom. One of the most notable changes from the outgoing model is a move from the obsolete four-speed automatic transmission to a continuously-variable-transmission that lends to a best in class EPA-rated 24 mpg city/32 highway and 27 overall mpg.


The Subaru New England Forester Tour is a 100% social media fueled excursion across the six New England states - stopping at landmarks, coffee houses, sandwich shops, ski mountains and other venues that you've told us to check out. Atlantic Subaru will be on hand at the event so don't miss this rare opportunity to check out the industry's best and newest crossover!
