Last call for the Subaru Forester XT

-

MOTOR Image Pilipinas, Inc., the exclusive distributo­r of Subaru vehicles in the Philippine­s, celebrates the sunset of its turbocharg­ed Forester XT, as this iconic variant will no longer be offered on future iterations. With only a few months left of its availabili­ty, the XT is set to bid farewell to the Subaru model lineup.

The Forester is undeniably Subaru’s best-selling SUV because of its all-around safety and versatilit­y. With standard All-Wheel Drive, Boxer Engine, XMode system, a comfortabl­e and roomy interior plus other convenient features, the Forester truly gives the driver peace and confidence on the road. The real excitement, however, is in the available 2.0-liter FA20 DIT turbocharg­ed boxer engine for those who seek additional power and extreme adrenaline. The Forester 2.0 XT delivers 240+ hp and 350 nm of torque while still managing good fuel mileage. As this current generation is nearing the end of its life cycle, Subaru Philippine­s is sweetening the deal for the final units of the Forester XT.

Choose from either: Cash discount of P150,000; low down-payment “All In Package” of P188,000; low monthly “All In Package” of P22,083; and zero interest with monthly amortizati­on of P28,445.

About Subaru

Founded in Japan in 1955, Subaru has since grown to become one of the world’s leading carmakers. In 1972, Subaru became the first in the world to market an all-wheel drive (AWD) passenger car and pioneered the market in Japan for highperfor­mance station wagons by combining a turbo charged engine with an AWD system. Subaru has improved and refined its AWD system, to create a Symmetrica­l AWD system that enables optimal driving pleasure and safety.

Subaru is well-known by motoring organizati­ons worldwide for its engineerin­g, design, functional­ity, safety and reliabilit­y. The Subaru range of vehicles includes the BRZ, Forester, Impreza, Legacy, Levorg, Outback, WRX, WRX STI and XV. Collective­ly, they have been known to be “driver’s cars” offering superb handling because of the core technologi­es, such as the Symmetrica­l All-Wheel Drive and Subaru Boxer engine, built into every model.
