The 2022 Subaru Ascent at Butte Subaru is a fantastic three-row SUV with a versatile cabin and standard all-wheel-drive system. It also brings numerous standard amenities, especially on the tech part, thus making it one of the most adored three-row SUVs around Anaconda. The only significant change it makes in the latest model year is the addition of the Onyx Edition package.
Performance Overview
The 2022 Subaru Ascent features a turbocharged inline-four with 260 horsepower, and it works well with the continuously variable transmission to deliver brisk acceleration. Despite its standard all-wheel-drive system, the Ascent registers superb gas mileage ratings, and you can expect to drive up to 27 mpg on the highway and 21 mpg in the city. Its excellent handling results in an engaging driving experience around Helen, even when maneuvering through narrow streets. The poised handling comes from the quick responsive steering wheel and sturdy brakes.
The 2022 Subaru Ascent can also maneuver in rocky places with no issues as several off-road capabilities accompany it. They include 8.7 ground clearance, standard all-wheel-drive, a well-tuned suspension system and the X-MODE® traction management system. The 2022 Subaru Ascent can tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Interior
The interior of the Subaru Ascent has upscale materials and top-notch amenities that give it a luxurious vibe. The cabin is spacious and well-suited for family trips because of the eight seats. The first and second rows can host taller passengers comfortably due to the ample legroom and headroom, while the third-row seats are great for your kids.
The dashboard in the front row is accompanied by a 6.5-inch or an 8-inch touchscreen, depending on the trim level you choose. No matter the touchscreen, Billings drivers get similar apps, such as Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™ and Bluetooth® connection. To get a navigation system and a 14-speaker audio system, you will have to get an 8-inch touchscreen. The center consoles also act as feedback centers for various safety features, such as a rearview camera that allows the driver to get a good rear view via the touchscreen.
Cloth upholstery is standard, with illuminated cupholders, carpet floor trim, and a full cloth headliner. The cargo area measures 17 cubic feet behind the rear seats, but, when you fold the third-row seats down, the cargo area expands up to 47 cubic feet. Plus, folding down the second-row seats expands it even further. Heating and cooling functions are available for the front seats, and you can get water-repellent StarTex upholstery.
Exterior
The exterior of the Subaru Ascent has a vivid design thanks to alloy wheels ranging from 18-inch to 20-inch, steering responsive LED headlights and a well-tuned front grille with the Subaru logo insert. The roof rails are also standard but vary in color depending on the trim level. Each trim includes LED brake lights, a rear spoiler and body-colored door handles. With the new Onyx Edition package, you will get blacked-out exterior accents.
