The new 2020 Subaru Forester is a great option for drivers around Rockville and Washington DC thanks to its spacious versatility, performance and suite of standard technology and safety features. From families to daily commuters, the Forester provides you with greater freedom on any of your travels. We know that you have many different options to choose from. That's why we want to highlight some of the many ways that the new 2020 Forester outshines the competition, including the new Honda CR-V and Ford Escape.

2020 Subaru Forester vs. 2020 Honda CR-V

The first advantage that the Forester offers over the CR-V is that every Forester model comes with standard all-wheel drive, providing you with greater traction and control than the standard front-wheel drive on the CR-V. All Forester models also come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two features that don't come standard on the CR-V. Further, the Forester comes with a standard Eyesight Driver Assist Technology system with pre-collision braking, lane keep assist and adaptive cruise control. The CR-V offers all the same features starting on the EX model, but not the base LX model.

2020 Subaru Forester vs. 2020 Ford Escape

The Forester comes with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, allowing you to navigate through poor weather conditions around Silver Spring and even off-road terrain in Gaithersburg with ease. The Escape comes with standard front-wheel drive. You can take advantage of more space in the Forester, offering 111.9 cubic feet of passenger volume, compared to 104 cubic feet in the Escape. Both vehicles offer an array of standard safety features, but only the Forester offers standard adaptive cruise control, making your morning commute to North Bethesda easier than ever.
