2. Subaru Forester 2.5
Nobody would consider the 2005 Forester XT a performance machine. After all, it is a mid-size family SUV concentrated on comfort, but with a twist. The Forester 2.5 XT has a 2.5-liter turbocharged flat-four engine with 207 HP and extremely capable all-wheel drive.

And that all adds up to a surprising 0 to 60 mph time. In fact, this car can accelerate to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. That makes it the Porsche Cayenne Turbo’s rival.
