Overall:

It has a nice wide front seats. Great hip and shoulder room for those of us that are rather large. Even the base model (Premium) has great Safety features and lots of tech, Bluetooth, WiFi, XM, Sat connectivity to do remote starts...

Overall:

The Ascent is secure, comfortable and well made. It handles the road quite well. It feels balanced. It has as many features as other makes of equal models.

Overall:

It was well worth driving up to West Springfield to buy the Ascent Subaru. It was over $4,000 lower then anything in the NY/NJ area.

Overall:

Roomy and just as luxurious as comparable top of the line mid-size SUVs (like Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander). Safety rating is unbeatable. Smooth drive and great breaking.

2020 Subaru Ascent Premium 7-Passenger AWD Review
Buckhuck says:
The newly introduced Accent is a sleeper of sorts. Looks like most other upscale soccer mom automobiles, but the large 2.4L turbocharged engine coupled with the all-wheel drive traction and Subaru realizability, it’s a blast to drive. Who’da thunk it?

2020 Subaru Ascent Premium 7-Passenger AWD Review
J.D. says:
We test drove the VW Atlas, Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Kia Telluride. For years we have loved the idea of owning an AWD Subaru, many people love them and they offer a lot of bang for the buck. However, we were very disappointed in the Ascent when compared to other SUVs. We loved the eyesight safety suite, the AWD, the interior was good, and the turbo engine was smooth and quiet. However, on the freeway the Ascent is noisy (mostly wind noise), the ride was firm, and we were very disappointed the only interior option available on the top-level Touring model is the dookie brown leather. The brown leather is something you either love or hate but for a $45K SUV I should have the option to choose. We ended up choosing a Honda Pilot. The Pilot is not the sexiest SUV but it does everything well and offers a comfortable and quiet ride. Furthermore, I had read many reviews of the 2019 Ascent having transmission issues. On the flip side, it is hard to beat the reliability of a Honda.

"The Pilot is well rounded and does everything well"

2020 Subaru Ascent Touring 7-Passenger AWD Review
GuruP7YB8 says:
We purchased our first Subaru yesterday. Wow we are impressed. 1. Called our insurance agent to update our insurance and our rates actually went down. 2. The safety features are awesome. 5 star safety rating in all categories. 3. It’s a really good family car, not over kill and is really sporty. 4. Has all the options that make it a great vehicle. 5. Easy to make a deal as the touring trim as all the options. We got a much better deal than any other suv we shopped for. We would buy this vehicle again.
