Foraging for the Subaru Forester

With the current Forester sales falling, Subaru needs to regain sales. Numerous mules of the forthcoming Forester have been sighted in Death Valley, based off the current Outback. The mule measured merely inches shorter than the Tribeca SUV meaning that the next Forester will be much longer than the current model thus offering more interior space and practicality.

The next Forester will be a genuine crossover but this CGI looks a lot like a Mitsubishi Outlander and Dodge Journey. Official photos have been leaked to a Japanese car magazine but it seems that none of the images have reached the web yet.

No diesel's are expected just yet but Subaru did say in a press release that there may be a 2.0 diesel in the Subaru line-up. This engine is likely to go into the Legacy, Outback and Impreza.

We expect to see the new Forester in late 2008.
