About the Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift

The 2006 Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,580 kg with 231 bhp, which works out at 146 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.45 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,711th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 38th quickest of the 119 Subarus here. Its 94.9 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift 0-60 time?

The Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift reaches 60 mph in 6.36 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,711th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift quarter mile time?

14.92 s at 94.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.72 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.45 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift have?

231 bhp and 1,580 kg, which is 146 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 216 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift?

Closest here on pace: Acura ZDX (6.40 s), Land Rover Discovery 3.0 V6 Si6 340 (6.33 s), GMC Envoy 5.3 V8 290 (6.42 s). Each one can be raced against the Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Mk II facelift is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
