Performance That Inspires Confidence
The 2026 Subaru Ascent is equipped with a powerful 2.4-liter H-4 Turbocharged engine producing 260 horsepower. It features a twin scroll intercooled turbocharger, Dual Active Valve Control System for variable valve timing, and electronic throttle control for quick acceleration.

Its Full-Time All-Wheel Drive provides reliable traction across different conditions, while X-MODE with Hill Descent Control assists in tough terrains. The Premium trim delivers fuel efficiency of 19 MPG in the city and up to 26 MPG on the highway, supported by a sizable 19.3-gallon fuel tank that allows for longer drives around Syracuse.
Interior Comfort and Versatility

The front seats feature heated, power-adjustable buckets, while higher trims include ventilated seats and perforated Nappa leather upholstery. The Touring and premium trims come with an express open/close sliding and tilting laminated glass sunroof with a power sunshade, filling the cabin with natural light. Dual-zone automatic climate control maintains a comfortable environment for all, and rear HVAC with separate controls ensures third-row passengers remain comfortable on extended trips.
