Notes from the dealer
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto let drivers mirror navigation, music, and messaging on the Ascentâs display without tangled cords, keeping phones tucked away while everyone stays connected and entertained.
Hands-on steering assist with lane centering reduces fatigue on long stretches and during congestion by gently guiding the vehicle within its lane, so you can focus on the road while the system helps maintain your position.
Forward collision mitigation constantly monitors traffic ahead and intervenes when a potential frontal impact is detected, helping to avoid or lessen the severity of a crash for greater peace of mind in busy conditions.
Front pedestrian impact prevention adds an attentive layer of safety in urban settings by identifying and tracking pedestrians and taking evasive action if a collision becomes likely.
Unresponsive driver assist is designed to respond if the driver becomes incapacitated, bringing the vehicle to a controlled stop, activating hazard lights, and requesting help when systems are equippedâ"an important safeguard for solo or long-distance trips.
The built-in mobile hotspot turns the Ascent into a rolling Wi-Fi hub so passengers can stream, work, or browse on the go without draining personal data plans, making long rides more productive and enjoyable.
A rear camera with a dedicated washer keeps the backup view clear in rough weather or muddy conditions, improving visibility when reversing and making parking maneuvers more confident.
Lane departure prevention helps correct unintended drifting by taking measured action to keep the vehicle centered, adding an extra layer of protection when attention slips for a moment.

Great SUV and value!!!
by Flux Gambino on 7/3/2026 10:11:38 AM
We have a 2022 Limited. It has been a great car with great options. It rides smoothly. It’s great in snow and ice. It has a lot of options for the price, and Subaru is always at the top of the list for safety. - 4.0
Great up to a point

We have a 2020 Ascent Limited. We like its features. Ride is a bit bumpy (my wife's term) and there can be more than a little road noise - but less than in the Outback we used to own. Engine is strong. Don't believe those who say the accelerator is "touchy". Mileage is good at 23 - 24. The only major issue was with the CVT at 125,000 miles. Dealer wanted $5000 to replace the torque converters. I contacted Subaru and they covered the full repair out of warranty. Bullet dodged. My advice is to trade it under 100,000 miles. - 5.0
The Great Ascent
by Dorrellkc on 1/30/2026 3:00:46 AM
If your looking for a big Forester then the Ascent is it. Gas mileage is more smiles per gallon vs anything reasonable. The third row comes in handy when needed, but don't expect to put full size adults in the third row for more than a couple of hours. The third row should be reserved for the kids. The radio is ok but it does lag from the initial startup of the car to pressing buttons which is a bit annoying and I wish that I could update the software to the new software that is in the 26 Outback. Even with all of that said, the Ascent fits our needs and we are happy with the AWD system and the overall handling. The Ascent is a joy to drive and has been very capable when needed. Keep up with the maintenance schedule and drive it like a normal human and the vehicle will treat you well.
