Performance Features
Every 2027 Subaru Ascent comes standard with a 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® engine that delivers 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. This is the sole engine offered across all trim levels, so there are no optional powertrains to choose between. Power is routed through a standard Lineartronic® CVT featuring an 8-speed manual mode with paddle shifters, giving drivers responsive control when they want it. Beyond the engine and transmission, the Ascent includes standard Subaru Ascent SUV capability with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and X-MODE® with Hill Descent Control, reinforcing its all-weather versatility and up to 5,000 lbs of towing capability when properly equipped.
Safety Features
Standard Subaru Ascent safety technology begins with EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology, which helps drivers avoid collisions through features like Emergency Stop Assist. Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is also standard, warning drivers of vehicles hidden in blind spots or approaching from the sides while reversing. Reverse Automatic Braking rounds out the standard suite, automatically applying the brakes to help prevent rear collisions when backing up. For added protection, the available DriverFocus® Distraction Mitigation System monitors for signs of driver fatigue or distraction on Limited trims and above.
Technology Features
Inside, this new Subaru SUV delivers standard family focused technology designed to keep everyone connected. An 11.6-inch Subaru Multimedia Plus system with a high-resolution touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility is standard, with upper trims getting navigation built in. SiriusXM® with 360L is standard, offering streaming audio and personalized entertainment throughout the cabin. A new interior light OFF switch lets drivers disable door-activated lighting with a single touch, minimizing disruptions to sleeping passengers. Available upgrades include a Harman Kardon® premium speaker system and Cabin Connect, which projects the driver's voice to rear passengers on higher trims.
