2020 Subaru Ascent Reviews, Pricing & Specs
















What owners say
"Overall, drivers are quite impressed with the 2020 Subaru Ascent, praising its roominess, safety features, and family-friendly design. Many appreciated the comfort of the interior and the overall driving experience, noting it feels luxurious and well-balanced on the road. However, some drivers wished for better fuel economy options, like a hybrid model, as well as certain tech features they found lacking compared to previous models."
Very spacious! Love that the second row captains chairs can slide up expanding the floor room for third row passengers
July 20, 2025Roomy 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.
May 20, 2020Wonderful, beautiful car! Blown away about how well thought out the design of the car was. Very functional and pleasing to the eye ! Kids love it too.

February 18, 2022I needed a vehicle with a third row option because my family is expanding. I test drove a Toyota Highlander and just felt this suited me better. The third row in the Highlander was uncomfortable and felt like an afterthought. The third row in the Ascent actually feels like a real third row - there is more room and the seats sit back a little at an incline, rather than being uncomfortably upright and with no leg room. I also found it easier to get into the back row in the Ascent, compared to the Highlander. We considered the Toyota Sienna hybrid, but I didnt really want a mini van and I didnt want something ridiculously huge. The Ascent is big, but reasonably so and very comfortable to drive. I think it will be great for long family trips and it feels very safe. Im only 53 and always feel uncomfortable and awkward driving a big beast of an SUV. But the drivers seat and steering wheel all seem to fit me very well. The Ascent also has a really great turn radius, so its more maneuverable than it appears. Lots of great family-friendly features and I also like that it has a good amount of ground clearance. It sits high off the ground but even as Im six months pregnant its still easy enough for me to get in and out of. I only wish they made a hybrid version for better fuel economy and more eco-friendly. However, the mpg is decent, given the size (comparable or even better than my old Honda CRV)
January 15, 2022The 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.
September 19, 2020It 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...
October 9, 2020This is a great SUV for the price, powerful and up to date on all electronic devices, im missing the auto high beams that i had on my 2017 Outback
January 18, 2023The car is very nice especially for family. Has a lot of room and features are great. Would recommend for any family
