Starting May 2024, Subaru has announced new promotional programs for the Forester line of vehicles. According to the announcement, incentives for this C-segment SUV remain unchanged compared to previous months.
Specifically, the Subaru Forester i-L Standard Edition still receives a cash incentive of VND 120 million. Meanwhile, the corresponding incentive for the i-L EyeSight Edition is VND 210 million. Additionally, the i-L EyeSight Edition will receive an automatic folding mirror accessory kit worth VND 3.5 million, which cannot be converted into cash. The top-of-the-line i-S EyeSight Edition receives a cash incentive of VND 250 million, applicable only to the limited-edition Crystal Moss Green color.
As such, the post-incentive price of the Subaru Forester is only VND 849 million for the i-L Edition, VND 889 million for the i-L EyeSight Edition, and VND 949 million for the i-S EyeSight Edition. Additionally, customers purchasing the Subaru Forester will receive a 5-year, unlimited-kilometer warranty.
This incentive program will be valid until May 31, 2024. However, it should be noted that this is an incentive program for the 2023 Subaru Forester (VIN 2023) to clear out inventory.

Details of the May 2024 Subaru Forester Incentive Program
Subaru Forester’s sales figures in the Vietnamese market have not been released. However, it is known to be the best-selling model for the Subaru brand in Vietnam.
Imported directly from Thailand, the Subaru Forester does not have the same price advantage as some competitors in the same segment. Additionally, this model falls behind some competitors in terms of brand recognition and design. This is one reason why Subaru has continuously maintained incentive programs for this model over the past several months.
Of course, this C-segment SUV also has its own strengths, such as the EyeSight 4.0 advanced driver assistance system. With dual cameras providing a field of view that is twice as wide, the EyeSight 4.0 package offers ADAS driver assistance features such as autonomous emergency braking, automatic emergency steering, adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and lane departure warning.
Furthermore, the Subaru Forester is equipped with a 2.0L 4-cylinder Boxer engine, producing a maximum capacity of 154 horsepower and 196 Nm of torque. The engine is paired with a continuously variable transmission with 7 virtual gears and Subaru’s signature S-AWD all-wheel drive system. This is one of the rare C-segment SUVs in Vietnam to be equipped with standard all-wheel drive.
