Subaru
Global Platform.
For over 50 years, Subaru has been well known for its reputation as a manufacturer that pays attention to the safety of passengers and road users. The use of Subaru Global Platform proves dedication to “safety” in one higher level. Subaru Global Platform enables up to 40% better impact absorption, up to 50% reduced body roll, and up to 70% increased rigidity to provide passengers with a sense of security, dynamic driving impression, and comfort.
Symmetrical
All-Wheel Drive and X-Mode.
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive has been Subaru's identity for more than 30 years. The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system on the all-new Subaru Forester is the latest refinement that gives the impression of agile driving, and easy control. The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system enables full-time four-wheel drive, ensuring optimal traction in all road conditions.
X-Mode is present in both types to improve all-terrain cruising
capabilities, the latest version of this technology features an optimized
X-Mode which controls the engine, transmission, and brakes on slippery
surfaces, improving driving ability in off-road conditions and uneven roads. In
the Subaru Forester 2.0i-S EyeSight variant, there are Snow/Dirt and Deep
Snow/Mud modes that can be changed with just one touch to improve the vehicle's
capabilities in various road conditions. The combination of Symmetrical
All-Wheel Drive and the latest X-Mode in the all-new Subaru Forester promises
“Enjoyment and Peace of Mind” in all road conditions.
BOXER
Engine.
Subaru believes that the BOXER engine configuration with 180° symmetrical axle layout results in a balanced, smooth, and minimal vibration engine. This configuration allows for a lower engine position and an “ultra-low center of gravity” for more stable handling and a more pleasant driving experience.
The all-new Subaru Forester marketed in Indonesia is equipped
with 1 engine choice, the Subaru FB20, BOXER Engine, 4-cylinder, 2.0L Naturally
Aspirated which produces 156 ps of power at 6000 rpm and up to 196 Nm of torque
at 4000rpm. The engine uses a 7-speed Lineartronic CVT transmission and Active
Torque Split AWD for a smooth and even distribution of power in all revs and
road conditions. Shifting gears can also be done manually via paddle shifts on
the steering wheel. This engine and transmission combination offers a balance
between performance and fuel consumption.
Subaru EyeSight.
Subaru EyeSight is an Advanced Safety Equipment that has been
developed by Subaru for more than 30 years with the principle of assisting the
driver with 2 additional eyes. The Subaru EyeSight feature installed on the
Subaru Forester model year 2022 has received the most recent refinement and is
entering its 4th generation. The focus of this technology development is to
provide enjoyment and peace of mind in driving in any condition.
Subaru Forester 2.0i-S EyeSight is equipped with several key features of the Subaru EyeSight, such as Adaptive Cruise Control that can follow the speed of the car in front of you according to the maximum speed input, Pre-Collision Braking, Pre-Collision Throttle management to reduce potential incidents. There is also a Lead vehicle start alert that helps us follow the car in front of us at traffic lights, Lane departure warning, Lane sway warming, and Lane keep assist which ensures the car is on the right track, and Subaru Rear-vehicle detection (RSVD) which minimizes the risk in blind spot side.
