2023 Subaru Forester for Sale near Chambersburg, PA
Exterior of 2023 Subaru Forester shown above.
The Subaru Forester has a variety of features to rejoice over for the 2023 model year. Whether you are an outdoor enthusiast, prefer to have a vantage point on the road, or simply like the aesthetic design of this compact SUV, Sheehy Subaru of Hagerstown is here for you! Discover what exciting amenities this dynamic set of wheels has to offer buyers as you read further.
Performance
One of the most compelling aspects of the Forester badge is that they are known for being more rugged than their numerous small SUV counterparts, and that reputation is only bolstered by the 2023 edition of this car. Through its standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, it’s able to produce 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. That power is more than adequate for merging onto and cruising down the Dwight D. Eisenhower Highway! If you happen to need to haul heavy-duty items during your trip, the standard towing weight is 1,5001 pounds. If you happen to need more towing capacity, we recommend you select the Wilderness trim, that allows you to haul a maximum of 3,000 pounds1! In spite of these capabilities, the 2023 Subaru Forester still earns an inspiring 33/26 MPG highway/city2.
Interior
The Subaru Forester is acclaimed for its generous storage capacity, and that is also carried over for this year. With a standard 28.9 cubic feet of cargo volume, your friends and family will easily be able to store golf clubs and other gear while en route to Black Rock Golf Course! If you encounter less than favorable weather during your trip there, no need to worry! This ride will allow you to spearhead the elements with its standard Symmetrical AWD system. This function will quell your anxieties, as it is made to provide optimal traction whether you are driving on bumpy terrain, rain, and snow. Moreover, if you would like a beautiful view of the sunshine or rain throughout your commute, we encourage you to opt for the available panoramic moonroof option.
Technology
The suite of technological amenities that the Forester has to offer are vast, but we will touch on the ones that we found most compelling. First and foremost, the available Subaru Driver Focus3® Distraction Mitigation System will alert you if you happen to become distracted or take your eyes off of the road for prolonged periods of time. This helpful feature will guarantee that you make it to the Mason Dixon Dragway safe and sound! Stay connected throughout the experience with the standard Subaru Starlink Multimedia system, that allows you to connect your compatible smartphone to access Apple CarPlay4™ and AndroidAuto4™. Once the phone is connected, enjoy easy access to your favorite multimedia applications that are clearly displayed on your infotainment screen. Passengers on the driver’s side can charge their devices courtesy of the standard dual-front USB ports5. There are even more features where that came from. Contact us during our business hours to learn more!

Testimonials
Buying a used Subaru from Sheehy was an amazing experience!
It was a great experience.
“ We did not go to Sheehey with the intent of buying a car just to window shop. The selection was good and the sales staff very helpful. It was a great experience. Manny and Michelle were tops. Having been a happy Subaru Outback for 11 years. We purchased a 2025 Outback XT Touring. Looking forward to many more happy years. ”
I would recommend anyone in the market for a car to at least give Sheehy a chance.
“ I bought a car over the weekend of 09/06/2025. I purchased a beautiful crystal pearl white 2025 Subaru Forester Touring with Java brown interior. My sales man, Kevin Stallman, is such a personal and enjoyable guy to talk to. Felt more like a friend of a friend than a sales man. He cared more about getting me the right car for the right price. Helping me test drive multiple cars, debating price, added accessories. The finance manager, Michelle Garret, is a delightful person to talk to as well. She offered great assistance in answering all my questions and getting me squared away with my final signature. The whole place felt like a family rather than a pressuring sales joint. I would recommend anyone in the market for a car to at least give Sheehy a chance. ”
Just bought my first brand new car yesterday and couldn’t be happier!
“ Just bought my first brand new car yesterday and couldn’t be happier! Godwill helped us out and wasn’t pushy at all. He was very understanding and made sure all of our concerns were taken care of. He was very kind, helpful, and transparent with all the costs, which I appreciated as a first time buyer. Noah was also very friendly and made sure I got the best deal with financing. He was also very honest. Super excited about my 2025 Subaru crosstrek premium! Thank you Sheehy Hagerstown! ”
Kept me informed
“ Tysheem was a great salesperson kept me informed and answered my million questions throughout the couple days before I came in. 10/10 recommend asking for him when you go in. Max was great and gave me a paw print license plate frame to match my steering wheel cover thanks! He also worked with me about my title and had someone come pick it up I even got to peel some peelies off the car Thanks guys ”
Great Price on my 2024 Crosstrek Sport Leo was an awesome sales rep ask for him!
Very Impressed
“ Went to the Grand Opening last week was very impressed with the turn out and all they had to offer. They really went all out. ”
Best experience buying a car that we ever had
“ We bought a new car there this week and it was the best experience buying a car that we ever had. Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable about their cars. They treated us like family and we felt the same way. Thank you for taking care of us! ”
Very Fair and transparent buying experience
“ Very Fair and transparent buying experience that was able to be completed quickly without pressure. I purchased a '23 Outback for under MSRP with no markups. Definitely recommend, Sheehy will be my first stop next time I need a car ”
responsive and patient
“ I went to this location in researching a vehicle purchase. The staff were responsive and patient with questions. Knowledge of the vehicles were impressive and test driving the vehicles was a hassle free experience. I would recommend this location to consider for your next purchase. ”
fantastic experience
“ I had a fantastic experience at Sheehy while buying my Subaru Crosstrek! Our salesman Carlos was extremely helpful the whole time and made the buying process easy. He was so personable and knowledgeable about the product, it helped me feel very confident in making my decision. Once I had picked my car, Carlos went through every feature and button with me so I could have the best ride home. Every person we worked with there had our best interest in mind and it made it the best car buying experience I’ve had to date. I’d recommend Sheehy Subaru to anyone in the market for a new car! ”
Amazing!
“ Leo and the manager Kate are amazing here, I got a great deal on this beautiful WRX. Leo was so understanding and patient with me through this whole process! He didn’t want me to leave without a car, he worked so hard for me and I finally went home with my first car for a great deal. I can say if you go in and ask for Leo you’re most definitely going home with a car. He made me feel like family. Still checking in on me and my car so I’m happy. ”
Very Knowledgeable
“ I would definitely recommend Dylan Donnelly, he was very knowledgeable. I normally despise car shopping, but it was very easy to work with him. We started out looking at new Subaru's but were really impressed with the certified used inventory. We ended up getting two like new Outbacks and couldn't be happier. Even with the inflated market, I feel we got a good deal especially considering the included 100k warranty. He even brought the vehicle's to us when it was time to sign paperwork. ”
Worked extra hard
“ The sales department worked extra hard to get me the vehicle I wanted in the color I wanted. ”
from beginning to end was a good experience
“ I just purchased a used Subaru from these guys and from beginning to end was a good experience. Ask for Anthony Voisinet in sales, great guy and very knowledgeable in Subaru's. Max as Sales Mgr. was also a great guy and very polite and professional. I will be back for my new one! No doubt. ”
Purchased my first new car today
“ Purchased my first new car today. A Subaru Ascent, Limited! To say I am pleased with my experience would be an understatement. First, Leo, the sales rep was amazing to work with. He is very personable and outgoing, I will work with him again in the future! Kat the finance manager, she’s so sweet and takes the time to go over all the details of your purchase and explain how things work for you. Definitely a great finance manager to work with. Lastly, Kate, the sales manager, wonderful woman! She was great to talk with and share a real conversation with. I will 100% return because of her and the rest of the team! Thank you all for a great buying experience! ”
FANTASTIC!!
“ This is the second vehicle we have bought from Sheehy Subaru and they didn't disappoint for round two! Leo was FANTASTIC!! He even came in on his day off because we couldn't finish out the first evening we came down. Kate was also wonderful! Even when it looked like the sale wouldn't go through, we laughed and enjoyed getting to know each other. They were able to give us a deal we felt comfortable with, and even went above and beyond in making sure it was all completed - to the point of bringing the vehicle and paperwork to our home later that night. I will continue to return to Sheehy because the sales staff is the best we've ever experienced (and we've experienced quite a few). Both times it has been best car buying experience we've ever had. ”
Best Experience
“ Recently purchased a 2021 Subaru Legacy Limited from Sheehy Subaru in Hagerstown and it was the best experience anyone could ask for! While working with Devante, he was able to provide me with great insight and lead me towards the vehicle I wanted. He was very patient and gave great advice when looking through each of the vehicles before making a purchase. Max was also very helpful in discussing the financing plans/options which can be one of the most stressful decisions in buying a vehicle. Thanks to Devante and Max, the car buying experience was very simple and exciting! ”
Service Department 100%.
“ I am super excited about my trip to your service center. Everyone was so courteous and helpful from my first encounter to the finish. I am rating your Service Department 100%. ”
Great experience!
“ Great experience! Michael DeJesus is professional, knowledgeable, personable, and best of all - not pushy. He really knows the product and worked hard to meet the vehicle needs of my family. I would definitely come back here and recommend to others. ”

“ Buying a used Subaru from Sheehy was an amazing experience! Marley was spectacular as a salesman! He went out of his way to make the buying experience extremely easy. He made me feel comfortable the entire time. He spent the time to answer all my questions, go over all the facts, explain all the numbers, and made sure I understood everything. He even went as far as returning my rental vehicle to Enterprise for me while I was finishing up paperwork with Zach. The finance manager Zach was just as exceptional as Marley! He also took the time to explain all my options with an extended warranty and service and made sure I understood all the facts and dollar amounts. Both gentlemen were extremely professional, polite, and took a genuine interest in my needs for a car. I spent time speaking with both men about our families and our lives and felt that they both were exceptional family men of high standards who took an interest in their customers as real people and were not only trying to sell cars. I highly recommend Sheehy Subaru to anyone looking for a used or new Subaru. When my daughter is ready next year to buy her next car, our first stop will be to see Marley at Sheehy Subaru. ”
