At long last, the 2016 Subaru Forester facelift officially makes its launch debut here in Malaysia, a few weeks after its regional debut at the Bangkok Motor Show. The good news here is, the refreshed crossover is now a locally-assembled product, originating from Tan Chong’s Segambut plant.
As an early buyer incentive, TC Subaru is offering an introductory price for the 2.0i at RM139,800 and 2.0i-P at RM151,800. Colour choices include Pure White, Silver Metallic, Dark Grey Metallic, Sepia Bronze Metallic and Obsidian Black Metallic. Motor Image says it aims to make the Forester its biggest volume seller with a sales target of 500 units monthly, which will make up for a large majority of its 2016 sales target of 7,000 units.
The LED units feature a Steering Responsive Headlight function that “bends” the light according to the direction of the steering input. The 2.0i meanwhile, gets halogen reflector lighting units and LED DRLs. As for wheel options, the XT gets 18-inch items with 225/55R18 tyres, while the remaining two variants are 17 inch in size, wrapped with 225/60R17 tyres.
Other amenities include four-way electric-powered front driver and passenger seats on the 2.0i-P and XT, and a powered rear liftgate with memory function as well. Increasing cargo space can be done by laying down the 60:40 split-folding rear seats, simply done with a pull of two small levers. Under the hood, the Forester is instilled with Subaru’s DNA – boxer engine and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. Here, the first component is a 2.0 litre NA four-cylinder DOHC petrol unit . Fitted to the 2.0i and 2.0i-P, the mill outputs 150 PS at 6,200 rpm and 198 Nm at 4,200 rpm. A SI Drive Mode function is available here too, operated from buttons on the steering wheel.
