Some of the significant additions include paddleshift five-speed automatic gearbox, revised sports suspension, Variable Torque Distribution (VTD) All-Wheel Drive, exclusive styling accents, a new set of STI 17-inch high lustre alloy wheels, Alcantara seat trim with S-Edition logos, new aluminum sport pedals, luminescent instruments with centre design unique to the model and Forester S-Edition badging.

Nick Senior, Managing Director, Subaru Australia, said: “We’re delighted and honoured that Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI) have chosen Sydney for the worldwide unveil of this Forester Concept.” “Forester is firmly established as Australia’s best selling compact sports utility vehicle, with the most recent addition to the range being the diesel variants that are proving a sales winner for our All-Wheel Drive brand.” he added.
