Why the 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid Is Built for Skagway, Alaska

.

If you live in Skagway, you already know our roads don’t mess around. From slippery runs up Dyea Road to rainy mornings on State Street, a good set of tires and a reliable AWD system aren’t luxuries; they’re lifelines. That’s why the new 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid feels like it was made for us.

Whether you’re loading up after a hike to Lower Dewey Lake, navigating summer cruise traffic, or heading out to pick up supplies before the ferry leaves, the Forester Hybrid makes it easy, with better mileage, legendary traction, and just enough tech to keep things safe without overcomplicating the drive.

Smart, Rugged, and Ready for the Pass

1. 581-Mile Range Means Fewer Fuel Stops
With gas prices climbing and stations few and far between between Skagway and Whitehorse, every extra mile counts. The Forester Hybrid gets an impressive 581 miles per tank, letting you head out confidently—whether it’s a weekend run to Carcross or just an extended cruise around the valley.

2. Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Comes Standard
Rain, snow, or gravel—the Forester doesn’t flinch. With standard AWD and X-Mode, this thing handles wet ferry ramps, slushy spring snow, and tight mountain roads like a champ. You’ll feel the difference when you’re headed up the Klondike Highway after a fresh dusting.

3. Plenty of Room for Life in Skagway
Need space for fishing gear, groceries, and the dog? No problem. You’ve got up to 69.1 cubic feet of cargo space and an extra-wide tailgate that makes packing up for a Dyea campout or a supply run super simple. Optional StarTex® water-resistant upholstery also means wet dogs and muddy boots are no issue.

4. Built to Keep You Safe
With EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology standard, the Forester Hybrid looks out for you. Adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, and pre-collision braking are all built in—perfect for foggy morning drives or icy conditions when visibility isn’t great. Plus, the frame is reinforced with high-strength steel for added peace of mind.

5. Smooth Ride, Even on Our Roads
Under the hood, the 2025 Forester Hybrid pairs a 2.0L direct-injection SUBARU BOXER® engine with electric motor assistance. That gives you a boost when climbing hills and better traction off the line—without sacrificing smooth handling when rolling down Broadway on a busy summer afternoon.
