Interior
One thing any self-respecting granola will tell you is that being flashy is a turn-off. Practicality and function win over style and luxury any day. That being said, those on the lighter side of the granola spectrum do appreciate a few creature comforts, as long as they don’t come at too great an environmental cost. Subaru knows this and has designed the interior to accommodate most people, regardless of their crunch factor.
My favorite interior feature is the Forester’s massive moonroof, which extends over the rear seat. This is no easy feat, as the rear seat features a lot of legroom for even the lankiest passengers. My kids loved being able to see the sky, and it made the car seem more roomy. Another very practical, albeit odd, feature was the rear passengers’ cupholders, which fold out of the center seat-bottom cushion. Obviously, it would be difficult to use if you had a third passenger in the backseat, but so would an armrest-type cupholder.
For the granola driver who still wants to take advantage of tunes, the center console has an auxiliary jack and a nifty adjustable console pocket that keeps your MP3 player within reach. Awesome, dude.
