Subaru Forester Ground Clearance by Year

The Subaru Forester’s listed ground clearance ranges from 8.7 to 9.2 inches across the catalog years 1999–2022. Ground clearance is the space between the vehicle’s underside and the ground; the listed range gives the low and high figures rather than one measurement that applies to every Forester.

The figure varies by model year and may differ by trim or equipment. Use the catalog entry for the specific year and version when comparing vehicles, and treat the overall range as a summary of the years covered, not as a specification for every model. If a specific figure is not listed for your vehicle, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
