Subaru’s March 25, 2026 tease is now a completed reveal: the company debuted the 2027 Forester Wilderness Hybrid on April 1 at the New York International Auto Show. It is Subaru’s first Wilderness SUV to feature its hybrid technology. Subaru estimates 30 MPG and 481 miles of range per tank; those are manufacturer estimates, not independently verified test results.
What Subaru revealed

The vehicle is the 2027 Subaru Forester Wilderness Hybrid. Subaru describes it as its first Wilderness SUV with the company’s hybrid technology. That makes this a hybrid version of the trail-oriented Forester Wilderness, rather than a separate Wilderness model line.
What the Wilderness Hybrid offers
Fuel economy and estimated range
Subaru lists estimated fuel economy of 30 MPG and an estimated range of 481 miles per tank on its 2027 Forester Wilderness Hybrid model page. These figures are Subaru estimates; the available information does not establish independent road-test results. Subaru also says the hybrid delivers up to 25% better city fuel economy than Wilderness models, a company comparison rather than an independently verified result.

Price and availability

What is—and is not—confirmed
The available official information establishes the model’s identity, several listed features, Subaru’s fuel-economy and range estimates, and broad winter 2026 timing. It does not establish full powertrain specifications, tire size or fitment, pricing, independent performance results, or an exact dealer arrival date. Those details should not be inferred from the reveal announcement.
