Bitauto Original At the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show, Subaru’s mid-term facelift Forester was officially launched, priced at 223,800-265,800 yuan. Although the power is still the same as before, some changes in appearance still bring a lot of freshness to this "middle-aged man". So what changes has it had? Let’s go with Qi Bian!

The most obvious appearance is the change in the shape of its headlights, which are more three-dimensional than the current model. At the same time, the decorative strips on both sides of the logo in the middle of the air intake grille are also added. The chrome decoration, corresponding front bumper shape, and fog lamp shape are all different. In the painting part, new colors of flowing copper and deep wilderness green will also be provided.

At the same time, there are black and silver anti-scratch panels on the lower protective bumper. This layered design adds a lot of wildness and looks very consistent with the "Forest Man" These three words.

The side of the car body has no changes compared to the current model, and the new style of rims enhances the overall temperament. In terms of body color, the new car will add dark green and bronze colors, and cancel the three colors of dark pearl blue, jasper green, and metallic brown. At the rear of the car, the new car still uses dual C-shaped taillights, which have a more eye-catching lighting effect.

As for the interior, the mid-term facelifted Forester still adopts the interior design style of the old model, and has not been changed for the facelifted model. It is still equipped with traditional It has a standard LCD screen and is not equipped with a full LCD instrument, so the technological atmosphere is slightly lacking.

In addition, the new generation EyeSight driving assistance system equipped in the new car can effectively grasp the environmental conditions through binocular stereo cameras and actively brake when necessary. The rear seats can also be folded down proportionally, which provides good space flexibility.

This system does not sound much different from other manufacturers' L2 autonomous driving, but when it comes to the development of the EyeSight system, it can be traced back to 30 years ago, and it has been in mass production for a long time. With a history of 20 years, I have to admire Subaru's foresight on safety. It's hard to imagine that they have persisted in the research and development of this system for 30 years. I can't think of any better modifier other than "paranoid".

This X-mode knob is also evidence of the above conclusion. It has a variety of off-road mode choices. The off-road capabilities of the Forester can be found online. The symmetrical full-time four-wheel drive can be used seriously. Let you know whatIt's the soul of Subaru.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with the current 2.0L hybrid system, matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission, and the four-wheel drive system becomes standard. However, the 1.8T turbocharged horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine may only be installed on overseas models and is still not available in China.

Editorial summary: In fact, the Subaru brand has always given The feeling is that of "uncle" and "stable", and the same is true for the new mid-term facelift Forester. It has not fallen into the arms of "young people" like most car companies. It is still so paranoid and so Subaru.
