This isn’t a very pretty design. The Forester is all about utility.


The daily driver is a kind of vehicle too often overlooked. It’s the car that does the tough daily grind, the one that brings the kids to school, carries the dog to the park, transports your groceries and brings your loved ones to warm places during Canada’s infinite winters. The daily driver is a hero of a car that operates in the background, often forgotten and neglected. You need it.

The is a good example of a great daily driver. No, it’s not very pretty — does Subaru even have a design department these days? — and it doesn’t boast any form of interesting performance figures. There’s nothing about this compact SUV that’s attractive, yet it still manages to be wonderfully charming. The Forester is proof that some cars seduce, neither by their looks, nor through their spec sheets, but by being superb, daily, utilitarian vehicles.
