A Competitive Outlook for the 2021 Subaru Ascent

With plenty of buzz generated for the all-new 2021 Subaru Ascent's arrival, it's time to judge where this three-row SUV ranks among competition within the segment. Our team at Concordville Subaru is here to provide this necessary perspective, reviewing what this eight-seat, full-size SUV segment addition is known for and why these points matter for your research.

Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and Model Design

The 2021 Ascent may return the Subaru brand to the full-size SUV segment with a three-row body design and eight-seat configuration, but this model still exhibits many of the exclusive qualities that already kept vehicles like the Forester and Outback in rare company.

Standard symmetrical all-wheel drive, not available in base model competition like the Chevy Traverse and Honda Pilot, steadies when it comes to traction over ice, sleet, rain, snow and off-road settings. This new Subaru model comes with a design centered on adventure and exploration, from 8.7 inches of ground clearance to raised roof rails for hiking and camping gear tie-downs. You can even tow up to 2,000 pounds with its turbocharged four-cylinder engine, more weight than these competing options can support.

Interior Space and Cabin Features

The 2021 Subaru Ascent includes 151.8 cubic feet of passenger volume for a comfortable drive regardless of what row you're positioned in. That extra room allows you to settle in and enjoy advanced features such as available Wi-Fi connectivity, tri-zone automatic climate control, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration and much more.
