Ready to explore the East Coast this summer? Head off the beaten track in the rugged 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness and take on the toughest terrain New Jersey has to offer. Off-roading enthusiasts love these features at Mid-Hudson Subaru, so try them out in person and get inspired for your next adventure.
Mountain-Climbing Power
With a capable Subaru BOXER® engine putting out 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque, the 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness has the force to climb that hill. Trim-exclusive 17-inch Yokohama Geolandar® tires provide solid grip on gravel, dirt, or whatever material you’re grabbing onto as you climb towards the summit. And now with up to 3,500 lbs of towing capability, you can bring a camper or vehicle along, too.
Trademark Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive®
The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive® system in the 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness does a lot more than just distribute power. With customized logic designed for off-roading, it tracks performance, detects differential lockup or wheel spinning, and automatically redistributes power to keep you going. Plus, with a symmetrical design evenly distributing weight, it handles smoothly around turns, on or off the trail.
Protection Against the Elements
The 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness has more ground clearance than ever: it’s now able to cross obstacles of up to 9.3 inches. Improved approach and breakover angles and a skid plate provide even more protection against debris, and with bumpers designed to stay clear of rocks, it’s even easier to keep cruising. When you get stuck in deep snow or mud, turn on Dual-Function X-MODE® and escape in a second.
