Set your next journey in motion with a compact SUV engineered to tackle four seasons, daily commutes, and weekend escapes with equal confidence. This 2016 Subaru Forester i Convenience AWD brings together Subaru’s proven all‑wheel drive capability, practical interior flexibility, and intuitive in‑car technology in a package that’s built for real‑world use, not just showroom shine. Powered by a 2.5L H‑4 DOHC engine producing 170 hp and running on regular unleaded fuel, this Forester delivers a balanced blend of efficiency and usable power. Paired with a 6‑speed Lineartronic CVT featuring overdrive, selectable drive modes, and electronic control with sequential shift via steering wheel controls, it offers smooth acceleration and responsive performance in changing conditions. Full‑time all‑wheel drive with permanent locking hub control works with all‑speed ABS, four‑channel traction control, electronic stability control, and hill descent control to help keep you composed on wet pavement, gravel roads, or snow‑covered streets. Inside, the cabin is designed to be comfortable and straightforward.

Heated bucket front seats trimmed in premium cloth provide practical warmth in colder weather, with the driver benefiting from 8‑way power adjustment and 2‑way power lumbar support for long‑distance comfort. The passenger seat offers manual fore/aft and recline adjustment, while rear occupants enjoy a bench seat with 60/40 split‑folding backs and three height‑adjustable head restraints. With a fold‑forward rear seatback and a sliding front center armrest, the interior easily adapts to passengers, cargo, or a mix of both. At the heart of the Forester’s appeal is its in‑car connectivity, centered around a 6.2‑inch touchscreen primary display. The system supports Bluetooth hands‑free calling, Bluetooth audio streaming, voice‑activated audio controls, and steering‑wheel‑mounted switches, allowing you to manage calls and media while keeping your hands on the wheel.

AM/FM/SiriusXM satellite radio with a three‑month trial, a single‑disc CD player, auxiliary input jack, and external memory control give you multiple ways to enjoy music and media. Aha internet radio capability and Aha selective service internet access integrate with Subaru STARLINK smart device app link, extending your listening options well beyond basic radio. While this system is modern and app‑focused, please note that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not listed among this vehicle’s features. Cabin comfort is supported by manual climate control with a cabin air filter and rear under‑seat ducts to help distribute airflow more evenly. The interior design blends practicality and visual interest with metal‑look inserts on the instrument panel, door panels, and console, complemented by a cloth headliner and full carpet floor covering with front and rear floor mats.

Storage is well thought out: you’ll find a full floor console with covered storage, a mini overhead console, locking glove box, seatback pocket, door bins front and rear, and multiple cargo solutions in the back. In the cargo area, a roll‑up cover helps keep belongings out of sight, while tie‑downs, a cargo tray/organizer, concealed storage, a vinyl/rubber mat, and a carpeted floor make it easier to carry everything from groceries to outdoor gear. The liftgate rear door provides straightforward loading, complemented by roof rails up top for additional cargo systems or sporting equipment. Safety and security are robustly addressed with seven airbags, including front, side, curtain, and a driver’s knee airbag, plus an airbag occupancy sensor. Front seatbelt pretensioners, a rear center three‑point belt, manual rear child safety door locks, and anti‑whiplash front head restraints help protect occupants in a variety of scenarios.

A rearview camera adds confidence when backing up, while remote panic alarm, immobilizer, and a security system support theft deterrence. From the outside, this Forester presents a clean, modern profile with body‑coloured front and rear bumpers, body‑coloured door mirrors and handles, black bodyside cladding, and black window and windshield trim. Reflector‑type halogen headlights with auto on/off, daytime running lights, front fog lights, and a high‑mounted centre stop light enhance visibility and presence. Silver 17 x 7‑inch aluminum wheels wrapped in P225/60HR17 all‑season tires strike a practical balance of ride comfort and year‑round usability. Driver‑focused touches include cruise control with steering‑wheel controls, an ECO feedback display, trip computer, driver information centre, analog/digital instrumentation with engine and various fluid level warnings, and multiple 12V power outlets plus a USB port.

Power windows with driver one‑touch up/down, deep‑tinted glass, heated power door mirrors, keyfob keyless entry with trunk control, and remote‑activated perimeter approach lighting add everyday convenience. With its full‑time AWD system, carefully considered interior layout, comprehensive safety equipment, and well‑rounded infotainment platform built around a responsive touchscreen and connected services, this pre‑owned 2016 Subaru Forester i Convenience stands ready to support your daily routine and your next escape with equal ease.
