It includes Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking, Pre-Collision Throttle Management, Lane Departure and Sway Warning, Lead Vehicle Start Alert, and Lane Departure Prevention.
The Subaru Forester is equipped with the brand's well-regarded EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. Its emphasis on safety makes the Forester a superior all-weather vehicle. Navigation is an option for Limited and standard for Touring trim levels. A 6.5-inch touchscreen is standard on Base, Premium and Sport trims, while an 8.0- inch touchscreen with voice-activated controls is optional for Sport and standard for Limited trims. A surprise feature is the single-disc CD player.
All Foresters are equipped with a high-resolution touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Aha, Pandora, Bluetooth, and AM/FM stereo. Subaru's Starlink provides hands-free connectivity through the vehicle's infotainment system. The driver is faced with a thin-film transistor LED 3.5-inch grayscale or 7-inch full-color configurable instrument cluster. Buyers have a choice of 7- or 8.4-inch touchscreen displays that offer the functionality of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a wide variety of other apps. The 2020 Cherokee offers the intuitive operation that characterizes FCA's Uconnect systems. The top-of-the-line Touring trim offers a choice of black or saddle brown perforated leather upholstery, 10-way power driver's seat with 2-position memory, 8-way power front passenger seat and heated rear seats. The Limited trim is distinguished by perforated leather-trimmed upholstery and dual-zone climate control.
The Sport trim has an exclusive interior featuring dark gray material with orange stitching and accents. The high-volume Premium trim level features a leather-wrapped steering wheel, 10-way power driver's seat with power lumbar support, rear-seat air conditioning outlets in the center console and a cargo area cover. Subaruįive people will find the same in the Subaru Forester with ever greater levels of luxe as prices climb. The Sport version of the Forester uses orange to accent the interior. The 2020 Jeep Cherokee offers a choice of three 4x4 distinct systems - Active Drive I, Active Drive II and Active Drive Lock - and that demonstrates how serious Jeep is about off-roading. The base engine is a normally aspirated 180-horsepower 2.4-liter 4-cylinder, and a normally aspirated 271-horsepower 3.2-liter V6 engine is also available. It's mated to a highly efficient 9-speed automatic transmission, and it features engine stop-start technology. The Cherokee offers several engine/drivetrain choices with the most high-tech choice the 2.0-liter direct-injection 4-cylinder engine that delivers 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. With the Forester, the equipment you get - all-wheel-drive, boxer engine, and EyeSight safety system - are the important things and the styling is just the box they come in. It's telling the Subaru press material doesn't say much about exterior design at all. In contrast, the Subaru Forester is more on-road-oriented and its styling is less "brand-centric." If you took the badges off the Forester it would still be an attractive compact SUV, but you might not immediately identify it as a Subaru.
