Forester Sales Drop 14% In September, Crosstrek Takes Over As Subaru’s Best-Seller

  • The Subaru Crosstrek maintained strong momentum, achieving its best-ever sales results in September 2024.
  • The Forester ranked as Subaru’s third best-selling model in September, trailing the Crosstrek and Outback.
  • Subaru recorded 56,414 sales in September 2024, an increase of 59 units compared to 2023.

The Subaru Crosstrek has overtaken the Forester as the brand’s best-selling model in the US thanks to strong sales over the past few months.

While sales of the Forester SUV dropped 14% in September (13,111 units), its year-to-date total (130,098 units) is still 22% higher than the same period last year, largely driven by its strong performance in the first half of 2024.
