2020 Subaru Forester E-Boxer

Subaru UK is pleased to announce the all-new Forester e-BOXER – the first self-charging hybrid from Subaru – has been awarded 4×4 Magazine’s Best Small SUV of the Year 2020, a testimony to Subaru’s on-going commitment to build cars that are incredibly safe, extremely capable and unfalteringly reliable, too.

Beating off strong competition, Forester impressed the judging panel at 4×4 Magazine across the board thanks to its wide range of safety technologies, on-road drivability and genuine off-road skills.

Alan Kidd, Editor of 4×4 Magazine, said: “”Subaru’s new Global Platform is the gift that keeps on giving. It means the all-new Forester has a roomier cabin than ever, as well as being almost unbelievably entertaining to drive – and one of the safest family vehicles in the world. That’s a hat-trick to be proud of!”

Subaru UK Managing Director Chris Graham commented: “We’re delighted that the all-new Forester e-BOXER has won 4×4 Magazine’s Best Small SUV of the Year 2020. Subaru are committed to building the safest vehicles on the road, with all-new Forester achieving the best score ever for Subaru in the Adult Occupant Protection test. These accolades are testimony to a great product and our vision to produce cars that truly are better where it matters.”

The safety credentials and suitability of Forester as a family wagon have also been confirmed by Euro NCAP, with the all-new model achieving Best in Class 2019 in the Small Off-Road / MPV class*¹ – and achieved the highest score ever in its class for “Child Occupant Protection” and the best score ever for Subaru in the Adult Occupant Protection”.
