2004 Subaru Forester Towing Capacity

The 2004 Subaru Forester is listed with a towing capacity of 2,400 lb. This figure is the towing rating shown for the model year covered on this page; it is not a payload rating or a measure of how much weight can be carried inside the vehicle. Use it as a reference when comparing a trailer’s loaded weight with the listed capacity.

The available facts cover only the 2004 model year and report one towing figure, so they do not show changes between years or trims. They also do not identify an engine-specific rating or explain whether equipment changes the limit. If your vehicle’s rating differs by trim, engine, or installed equipment, confirm the correct figure on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual before towing.
