=== Facelift === The facelifted fourth-generation Forester was revealed in October 2015 ahead of the [[Tokyo Motor Show#2015|2015 Tokyo Motor Show]]. Changes include new LED projector headlights with C-shaped positioning lights, new taillights, a redesigned grille and a reprofiled front bumper. Subaru also introduced improvements to the Forester's AWD chassis and NVH. It also feature greater front cross member rigidity and optimization of the rear trailing link bushings which result in better steering response and straight-line stability. The turbo model gets Active Torque Vectoring. Ride comfort has been improved with optimized dampers and spring rates, while thicker door glass, stronger sealing, additional under-floor insulation and improvements to the Lineartronic CVT gearbox result in quieter ride. The FB 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated flat-four petrol engine with {{convert|148|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} has been given more efficient combustion and reduced friction for better fuel efficiency with no loss of performance. The Forester uses color cameras for the EyeSight system with a wider and longer field of view. Alongside EyeSight which was upgraded to Version 3, Subaru offered a Rear Vehicle Detection package that includes Blind Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. The stereo cameras of Eyesight also double up as the eyes for Adaptive Driving Beam.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Tan |first=Paul |date=2015-10-06 |title=Subaru Forester facelift revealed ahead of Tokyo debut |url=https://paultan.org/2015/10/06/subaru-forester-facelift-revealed-ahead-of-tokyo-debut/ |access-date=2024-07-21 |website=Paul Tan's Automotive News |language=en-US}}</ref> In the U.S., the facelift was introduced in April 2016 for the 2017 model year.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2017 Subaru Forester has new face, better EyeSight, torque vectoring |url=https://www.autoblog.com/2016/04/15/2017-subaru-forester-has-new-face-better-eyesight-torque-vecto/ |access-date=2022-08-31 |website=Autoblog |language=en}}</ref><gallery widths="200" heights="120"> File:2016 Subaru Forester XE Premium Symmetrical AWD facelift 2.0.jpg|Facelift File:2017 Subaru Forester (MY17) wagon (2017-11-18) 02.jpg|Rear view </gallery>
