CarGurus Analysis: 2025 Subaru Ascent

Summary
With 52 currently listed for sale near Sacramento, CA and an average price of $28,459, 44.2% of 2025 Subaru Ascents for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
100.0% of 2025 Ascent models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2025 Subaru Ascent stands out as a family-focused three-row SUV that is distinctly Subaru in both design and hardware. It offers seven- or eight-passenger seating, standard Symmetrical all-wheel drive, and a 260-horsepower 2.4-liter Boxer turbocharged engine with a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds. Subaru also gave it a long list of practical touches, including rear doors that open to 75 degrees, available USB charging ports in the third row, 19 standard cup holders, and three-zone automatic climate control. Safety is another major part of its appeal, with EyeSight driver assist standard and features such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking included.
The 2025 model year also benefits from the Ascent’s ongoing updates. Subaru’s first-generation Ascent received a mid-cycle refresh in 2023 that brought a new front fascia, new LED headlights, C-shaped taillights, a larger 11.6-inch infotainment system, an available surround-view monitor in the Touring trim, a new available Cabin Connect intercom system, and a refreshed interior. For 2025, Subaru discontinued the base trim and added new Ascent Onyx Edition Touring and Ascent Bronze Edition trims. That combination of standard all-wheel drive, strong safety equipment, and flexible seating makes the Ascent appealing to buyers who want a capable, well-equipped family SUV, though its fuel economy is described as unimpressive and its third row is cramped.

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 94.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
You should still run a vehicle history report and verify that the specific listing matches its advertised condition. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you plan to use the Ascent for family hauling or towing, and focus on signs of interior wear, cargo-area use, and overall maintenance quality.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 Subaru Ascent?
This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, with enough inventory and enough deal activity to reward careful shopping.
- Deal availability: 34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 2,163 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.07% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 94.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $37,766, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2025 Subaru Ascent's resale value?
The current average of $37,766 sits slightly below last year's $42,951.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can help you buy more confidently today. For a future seller, it also means resale value may depend heavily on condition, mileage, and how well the vehicle is equipped and maintained. If you keep the Ascent clean and well-documented, you give yourself a better chance of standing out when it is time to sell.
Should I buy a 2025 Subaru Ascent or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2025 if:
- 34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is excellent at 94.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.07% compared with last year.
Consider the 2024 if:
- At $33,119, the 2024 costs less than the current year's $37,766 average.
- It is a straightforward choice with Subaru’s familiar family-sized formula.
The bottom line: If you want the newer model-year pricing context and a healthy share of clean inventory, the 2025 is the better primary target. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2024 is the smarter secondary path because it delivers the same basic Subaru three-row appeal for less.
