Subaru Forester Weight

When buying a compact SUV, you may be looking into things like length, width, and height to see how the vehicle would work with your daily commutes. One detail that might interest you, though, is the weight. This is especially true when you're loading people and cargo into the automobile.

Below, we'll go over the Subaru Forester weight in detail. See what the numbers are like, then contact Ira Subaru to test drive the vehicle near Wakefield, Reading, and Danvers.

2019 Subaru Forester Base Curb Weight

The 2019 Subaru Forester has a different base curb weight, depending on the trim level:

• Base: 3,449 pounds
• Premium: 3,516 pounds
• Sport: 3,531 pounds
• Limited: 3,541 pounds
• Touring: 3,588 pounds

Curb weight is how heavy a vehicle is with all its standard equipment and amenities. However, this doesn't include passengers or cargo, which would be the gross vehicle weight. So, it would essentially be what the vehicle weighs when resting on the curb and not in use.

Passenger Room in the Subaru Forester

The first thing that would contribute to the gross vehicle weight in the 2019 Forester is the number of passengers.

The vehicle can seat up to five people among two rows. Plus, no matter where you sit, you'll have plenty of room to comfortably stretch out. That's because this SUV offers the following interior dimensions:

• Front headroom/legroom: 41.2 inches/43.3 inches
• Rear headroom/legroom: 39.6 inches/39.4 inches
• Passenger volume: 111.9 cubic feet

A 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat is available, so that you can feel nice and relaxed behind the wheel. Heated front and rear seats are available, as well, along with a heated steering wheel. When equipped with those amenities, you can get cozy quickly on an especially cold day.

2019 Forester Cargo Space

Finally, you'll want to consider how much cargo you put into the Subaru Forester when thinking about its weight.

Luckily, you can fit plenty of items inside this automobile. That's because it has 35.4 cubic feet of cargo room behind the rear seats. When that row is folded down flat, the cargo space increases to 76.1 cubic feet.

Additionally, you have a number of different ways to fit as many people and items into the Forester as possible. The vehicle comes standard with 60/40-split flat-folding rear seatbacks. Fold down one side quickly with the side lever, then load up some belongings while still leaving a seat for a friend or family member.

If you wish to bring larger items along for the ride, like for a weekend excursion, you can with the raised roof rails. Attach bikes, skis, kayaks, and other belongings to the roof, where they'll remain tightly secured for the duration of your drive.
