The Wilderness line of models was, historically speaking, both the smartest and most obvious business decision Subaru ever made. Take a company already associated with doing outdoorsy things and give it more off-roady models? Obviously that plan worked; now the 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness is here to continue the line.

Improved ground clearance, and recalibrated engine and transmission now make the new 2026 Forester Wilderness more capable off-road than before.
