Subaru Forester Trims and Equipment

Subaru Forester trim levels add equipment on top of a technical version instead of replacing it. On the 2.5 CVT five-door gasoline all-wheel-drive SUV, you will find configurations named CB and CS. Those packages typically change cabin features and convenience items, not the engine or transmission.
