The Ascent is a midsize SUV that has gained in popularity since its debut in 2018. This is the largest model Subaru has ever produced, featuring three rows of seating, room for up to eight passengers, and lots of extra space, making it a fantastic choice for big families. The Ascent comes with Subaru’s patented Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive standard, meaning that in all conditions, rain or snow, you’ll have traction when you really need it.

This model is powered by a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, delivering around 260 hp and nearly 280 lb-ft of torque. These specs provide a great balance of both power and efficiency — this is no lightweight family wagon. This model boasts impressive towing capabilities, so it can haul to some extent, with a max capacity of around 5,000 pounds, making it a good choice for both leisure and work.
As always, safety is a priority for Subaru. The Ascent comes equipped with EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. This includes such safety features as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and pre-collision braking. The interior also keeps both convenience and comfort in mind, with a host of modern features you would expect, like a touchscreen interface, smartphone integration, and a variety of I/O ports.
