Expert Analysis

Our verdict, ratings by area, and what stands out.

7.0

Good

3.5 / 5

The 2026 Subaru Forester 2.0i-L Standard brings proven safety and ground clearance for Nepal, with EyeSight 4.0 ADAS, 5-star NCAP rating and 220 mm clearance beating the Compass, Mazda and Tucson. The symmetrical AWD and CVT suit hilly terrain, though the 150 bhp engine lags every rival including the 153.8 bhp Tucson. At Rs 1.50 Cr with 10.7 kmpl mileage, running costs stay high while performance underwhelms against the 256 bhp Mazda or 201 bhp Hilux.

Buy this if advanced safety and stable AWD matter more than outright power, and you accept Subaru's smaller service footprint.
