2026 Subaru Forester for Sale in Fredericksburg, VA
With industry-exclusive features and lively mechanics, the 2026 Subaru Forester is leagues ahead of its competitors. This compact SUV is a 2026 Consumer Reports Top Pick1, and Sheehy Subaru of Fredericksburg is here to put a spotlight on its premier capabilities!
Exterior
The Forester places itself at center stage on the streets of Fredericksburg with its iconic appearance. The standard 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels come in a dark metallic finish, but you can upgrade to 19-inch dark gray alternatives to enjoy an aggressive stance on the pavement. If you choose the Wilderness trim, all-terrain tires will allow you to handle dirt, sand, mud, gravel, and more with absolute confidence. This SUV also emanates an athletic appeal, because a roof spoiler comes standard, and a single stainless steel exhaust outlet is an optional upgrade. Lastly, if mist rolls off the Rappahannock River, the available LED fog lights will allow you to see what’s ahead.
Performance
If you’re running late to your plans at St. Clair Brooks Memorial Park, the 2026 Subaru Forester will make sure you arrive on time. A standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine uses a Dual Active Valve Control System to kick out 180 horsepower and 178 lb.-ft. of torque. This system works side by side with a Lineartronic® Continually Variable Transmission, which uses an intuitive belt and pulley system to provide smooth acceleration. If you require a car that will motivate your daily commutes, you’ll appreciate the 26/33 MPG city/hwy2 fuel economy rating and 16.6-gallon gas tank. Not to be overlooked, the standard Subaru Symmetrical AWD system will prevent wheelspin on rain-soaked roads.
Interior
Aches and pains are common on extended travels, but the 2026 Forester mitigates that concern with its high-end comfort amenities. A 6-way manually adjustable driver’s seat comes standard, but you can upgrade to a 10-way power chair to access more convenience and flexibility. This setup also has heating and cooling functions built into the cushions, so you can regulate your body temperature regardless of the season. You won’t have to worry about losing feeling in your fingertips either, because the optional heated steering wheel jumps into action during frigid weather. Do you crave a luxurious environment to relax in? Choose the Limited or Touring trim to enjoy leather-trimmed upholstery.

Dealership Information
Testimonials
Super happy with this dealership.
I will choose Sheehy again.
“ Steve Kane at the service desk and Gary the technician treated me with sympathy and respect. My vehicle and I were towed in after breaking down on I95. Even though the service department was busy, they looked at my outback in short order, explained and physically showed me the problem. They resolved my issue so that I could get back home safely. I appreciated that Gary spent time with me to show me the under belly of my car and pinpoint my problem and that he wrote a detailed explanation on the paperwork receipt. If I ever need service again in or near Fredericksburg, I will choose Sheehy again. ”

“ Super happy with this dealership. Found my dream car online, used. Had all my stuff in order, and went to the dealership and was out of there in an hour and a half with my new car. Super easy process. Really nice sales people and finance people. I hate haggling and this dealership doesn't believe in haggling. The price of the car was more than fair. For all the bells and whistles that it had on it. Sam was fantastic, and helped me through the whole process. ”
