The pragmatic Subaru Ascent may be more well-known for its 5-Star NHTSA safety rating, standard all-wheel drive, and spacious seating for eight... but can this adventurous family SUV bring the thrills?
Powered by a muscular 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine, the Ascent delivers an impressive 260 horsepower. The direct injection engine features advanced technologies like Dual Active Valve Control System (DAVCS) variable valve timing and Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) for optimal power and efficiency in all driving conditions.
The Ascent comes standard with Subaru's legendary Symmetrical Full-Time All-Wheel Drive system for superior traction and control on any road surface. X-MODE with Hill Descent Control offers additional off-road capability at the touch of a button. The smooth-shifting CVT Lineartronic transmission delivers strong acceleration and passing power while maximizing fuel economy.
In the end, it's up to you to decide. One thing is for sure—this safety-conscious SUV is no couch potato!
