Subaru Forester Car Leasing and Subaru Forester Contract Hire

Why Lease The Subaru Forester?

The 5-door Subaru Forester is a compact SUV with incredible off-road capability that proves that luxury and utility can coexist. This is an ideal choice for those who require reliable off-road performance but who don’t want to drive a full-size 4x4. The Subaru Forester is practical, spacious, user-friendly and supremely versatile – rugged enough to hold its own in the country, but not so large as to look out of place in the city.

Nationwide Vehicle Contracts have some fantastic leasing offers on the Subaru Forester at competitive UK car lease prices.

Subaru Forester Key Features

• Luxurious compact SUV with formidable off-road potential;
• Raised ground clearance dominates all terrains;
• Low mounted boxer engine for optimum stability;
• All wheel-drive;
• Staggering choice of trims and engines to suit every driving style

Power & Performance

The Subaru Forester can be fitted with eight possible engine configurations, with the choice varying depending on the trim level selected. Transmission is available as either 6-speed manual, 5-speed Dual-Range manual or 4-speed automatic with Sportshift.

If you prefer petrol, the 2.0 litre four cylinder option has an output of 150PS. The diesel range, though, far outperforms in terms of torque and is therefore perhaps the better option for those who want to push the Subaru Forester to its limits. The 2.0 litre four cylinder XS, for example, is capable of 147PS and produces an impressively flexible 250Nm at 1,600-2,400 revs.

All engine configurations are fitted with such advanced active safety systems as Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) and an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS). Combined with the Subaru Vehicle Dynamics Control system, these features not only enhance your safety, but also your stability and control when cornering, swerving or driving off-road.

Off-Road Potential

Permanent Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is standard across the Subaru Forester range, meaning that no matter what engine or trim level you choose, you never have to compromise on the car’s considerable off-road potential.

The Subaru Forester is capable of tackling all terrains thanks to its raised ground clearance, whilst its low mounted boxer engine reduces its centre of gravity and boosts stability. To further enhance practicality, the Subaru Forester has up to 1,660 litres of storage space. But if this isn’t enough, the self-levelling suspension makes it particularly adept at towing.

Leasing vs Buying

With flexible contract durations and mileage terms, leasing from Nationwide Vehicle Contracts is as convenient as its affordable. Indeed, when you lease a Subaru Forester, the vehicle lease, road tax and breakdown recovery are contained within one single fixed monthly payment.
