Subaru Ascent
Entering its second year, the Ascent gets a number of new features, including a device that provides audible and visual reminders to check the rear-seat area prior to leaving the vehicle, ensuring no child or pet is left behind. This three-row midsize SUV continues to stand out with standard all-wheel drive, the EyeSight advanced safety system and a 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder with a towing capacity of up to 2,268 kg—all that at a competitive price.
