What changed during the 2025–2026 Subaru Forester

• 2025All-new SL-generation redesign, unveiled October 2024 for the 2025 model year; adds a factory Forester Hybrid (S:HEV) for the first time in the US; base horsepower rises slightly to 180
• 2026Carryover year; no major mechanical changes identified

What size wiper blades does a 2025–2026 Subaru Forester take?

26 inches on the driver's side and 17 inches on the passenger's side, plus a 14-inch rear blade.

Can you fit a longer wiper blade on a 2025–2026 Subaru Forester?

Going up one inch usually clears, but it is not free: an oversized driver's blade can overlap the passenger blade at the top of the sweep, or run off the edge of the glass and chatter. The factory sizes are chosen to sweep the maximum area without contact.

What wiper connector does a 2025–2026 Subaru Forester use?

Not independently confirmed for the SL generation this review cycle; carried forward from the SK generation's fitment as the most likely match. Measure the old blade before ordering.. Blade packaging lists the connector type. Match it or the adapter will not latch.
