Will The Yakima SightLine Roof Rack Y43TD Fit Flush Rails On A 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid?

Question

Question:

Hi there. Just bought a 2025 Subaru Hybrid Forester Touring. The factory side rails are flush, different than the other 2025 Forester models. Will this roof system fit?

Hi Ron!

I double checked with Yakima and the SightLine Roof Rack for Flush Rails - CoreBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - Qty 2 # Y43TD will indeed fit the flush rails on your 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid. I included an image showing this as well.

What are you planning on carrying on your roof?
