The Forester is 4WD, here is the relevant content: Subaru Forester: The Subaru Forester was first introduced in February 1997. The Forester combines the characteristics of a multi-purpose vehicle and a passenger car, or in modern terms, it is a "crossover" model. The Forester's chassis is derived from the 1993 Subaru Legacy, adapted for the Forester with a shortened wheelbase and increased ground clearance, while retaining the full-time all-wheel drive and horizontally opposed engine. As a result, the Forester not only delivers excellent performance in harsh road conditions and the elevated driving position required by multi-purpose sports vehicles (SUVs), but also provides drivers with a pleasant and comfortable driving experience. Full-time All-Wheel Drive: Full-time all-wheel drive means that the vehicle is driven by all four wheels at all times. The full-time all-wheel drive system distributes power to all four tires through a flexibly connected center differential and independent front and rear differentials. Unlike purely mechanical differential locks, the differential in a full-time all-wheel drive system can be either a viscous coupling or a multi-plate clutch type, but both allow for a speed difference between the front and rear wheels, as well as between the left and right wheels. Whether a vehicle has full-time all-wheel drive depends entirely on the construction of the transfer case. As the core component that manages the vehicle's different driving states, the transfer case largely determines the overall performance of the vehicle.
