Efficiency Meets the Kennedy: New Subaru Forester Hybrid Inventory in Chicago, IL

Driving in Chicago is a unique discipline. It requires a vehicle that can handle the stop-and-go gridlock on the Kennedy Expressway, squeeze into tight parking spots in Logan Square, and conquer unplowed alleys in Old Irving Park during January. At Berman Subaru of Chicago—the city's only Subaru dealer—we are proud to introduce the solution: the new Subaru Forester Hybrid. Located right on West Irving Park Road, we understand that Chicago drivers need the legendary capability of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive without the penalty at the pump.

Engineered for the 606 Zip Codes

Our inventory of new Subaru Forester Hybrid models features engineering designed to master the specific seasonal and topographical demands of Chicago, IL drivers:

  • Stop-and-Go Mastery: The hybrid powertrain shines where Chicago traffic is heaviest. Whether you are crawling along Lake Shore Drive or stuck on the Eisenhower, the electric motor handles the low-speed work, saving fuel and reducing emissions in the city we call home.
  • All-Weather Confidence: "Dibs" season is real, and winter parking can be a nightmare. The Forester Hybrid comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, giving you the traction to pull out of snowed-in spots that leave front-wheel-drive crossovers spinning their tires.
  • Urban Visibility: With top-class outward visibility and a compact turning radius, the Forester Hybrid is surprisingly agile. It makes navigating the narrow streets of Bucktown and parallel parking near Wrigley Field significantly less stressful.
  • Pothole Protection: Chicago streets are famous for their craters. The Forester Hybrid features 8.7 inches of ground clearance and a compliant suspension that absorbs the jolts of rough pavement on Western Avenue, keeping your coffee in the cup holder and your passengers comfortable.
