The Subaru Ascent is a midsize, all-wheel-drive, three-row family SUV.
I recently reviewed a $50,000 2024 Subaru Ascent in the Touring trim.
Competition is fierce among carmakers for family SUV sales. Honda, Nissan, Hyundai, and Kia have all recently introduced all-new or updated three-row family SUVs.
Subaru threw its hat into the ring in 2019 with the Ascent, giving loyal Forester, Impreza, and Outback drivers a legitimate three-row SUV option.
After a few years on the market, Subaru updated the Ascent with edgier styling and upgraded tech.
I recently spent a week driving a 2024 Subaru Ascent in the top-spec Touring Trim. I really enjoyed its revised styling, an impressive suite of standard safety features, and powerful engine.
Here's a closer look at some of my favorite features.
