The Forester Gets Stronger: Introducing 2.5L BOXER® more power, same legendary DNA

Muscat: The Subaru Forester returns to Oman with renewed strength, now powered by a 2.5L BOXER® engine that replaces the previous 2.0L unit. With this upgrade, customers can enjoy more power, torque, and confidence behind the wheel while still benefiting from the Forester’s hallmark balance and efficiency.

The heart of the Forester has always been its unique BOXER® engine, a Subaru signature for over 50 years. With its horizontally-opposed piston layout, the engine lowers the vehicle’s center of gravity, delivering greater stability, smoother rides, and improved handling. The result is not just performance but the long-term durability that Subaru owners have come to trust.

Inside, the Forester embraces the future with a sleek new vertical infotainment display at the center of the cabin. Its modern, driver-focused layout resembles the premium digital cockpits of next-generation vehicles, giving drivers a connected and intuitive experience on every journey.

True to Subaru heritage, every Forester continues to come standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, ensuring surefooted traction across Oman’s varied terrain; be it tackling mountain passes, navigating city roads, or heading for a coastal escape. Combined with the new 2.5L powertrain, this capability makes the Forester more versatile than ever.

Proudly crafted in Japan, the Forester embodies precision engineering, reliability, and quality craftsmanship. It continues to be a trusted choice for adventurous families, loyal Subaru owners, and new customers seeking an SUV that can confidently balance everyday needs with the thrill of exploration.

A senior spokesperson from the OTE Subaru team said: “With the return of the 2.5L BOXER® engine, the Forester offers even more confidence and capability while staying true to what makes it a Subaru - balance, safety, and long-term dependability. It’s a model built for Oman’s drivers, combining precision engineering with adventure-ready versatility.”

The all-new Forester with 2.5L BOXER® engine is now available at Subaru showroom. Customers are invited to book test drives, explore flexible finance plans, or learn more at www.subaruoman.com.

With a unique focus on all-wheel drive performance, Subaru continues to be the go-to choice for drivers seeking durability, versatility, and cutting-edge technology, making every journey a confident one.
