About the Subaru Forester

The Subaru Forester SK9 is a versatile crossover SUV that suits urban families and adventurous individuals alike. Known for its all-wheel-drive capability, it's perfect for navigating both Nairobi's bustling streets and the rougher terrains upcountry. The SK9 generation, introduced in 2018, offers a blend of practicality and comfort, making it a popular choice for those seeking reliability and space without sacrificing driving enjoyment.

Pros

Excellent AWD capability
Spacious interior
Good ground clearance
Strong resale value
Comfortable ride quality

Cons

High fuel consumption in city
CVT maintenance costs
Expensive genuine parts
Limited rear visibility
Oil consumption at higher mileage

Reliability

The SK9 Forester is generally reliable, with the FB25 engine known for longevity if well-maintained. However, oil consumption can increase with mileage, and the CVT requires regular fluid changes to avoid issues.

Maintenance

Routine maintenance is straightforward, but the CVT demands attention to fluid intervals. Service costs are moderate, but genuine parts can be pricier than average. Regular checks on suspension components are advisable due to Kenya's road conditions.

Parts availability

Parts are readily available in Nairobi's Kirinyaga Road and Grogan areas, with options for both genuine and aftermarket components. Subaru's authorised service centres also stock necessary parts, though at a premium. Used parts can be sourced from ex-Japan imports.

Fuel economy

The SK9's 2.5L petrol engine is reasonably efficient for a crossover, with moderate thirst in city traffic but more frugal on highways. Expect higher consumption in stop-and-go Nairobi conditions.
