Forester has officially gained two new trim packages. The rugged Wilderness trim package is back, seen previously on the last-gen Forester and on other Subaru models such as the Outback and Crosstrek.

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