Whether or not the roads before you include family carpools, weekend adventures in the Sierras, seating extra passengers, or towing, the new Subaru Ascent was designed to handle it all. Available with three rows of seating that expand to accommodate up to eight people, standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and an efficient, turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® engine provide confidence on changing road surfaces and long Nevada highway journeys. And all this comes with 8.7 inches of ground clearance.
Families living in the Carson City area will appreciate the blend of features offered by the Ascent as an ideal option for individuals desiring the roominess and seating for three rows of people, along with the legendary driving prowess of the Subaru. The car provides many ways for you to tailor your drive and outdoor trips.
Another of the key benefits of the Ascent is its flexibility that caters to the needs of passengers as well as cargo that change as per requirements. You get options in terms of seating capacity, either seven- or eight-passenger, with three rows of seats. When you fold down the rear seats, you get up to 75.6 cubic feet of storage space.
This feature makes it easier to use daily. The third row gives you additional seating capacity when going out on long drives with your family members. You have lots of room when the rear seats are folded down, whether you are going out to pick up groceries, take along camping gear, sports gear, or luggage.
The new Ascent is equipped with a high-definition 11.6-inch touch screen and smartphone connectivity as standard features. In-vehicle navigation and in-vehicle Wi-Fi connectivity are optional on selected models.
Higher trims of the Ascent provide features that make driving easier. For example, Cabin Connect allows either the driver or a front seat occupant to talk to the passengers sitting in the rear seats through the car’s sound system, and 360° Surround View Monitor makes parking easier.
Additionally, Subaru includes its EyeSight Driver Assist Technology suite along with other safety and security features, offering peace of mind on all your journeys.
Three rows of seating shouldn’t just look good-they should make driving easier and more pleasurable. The versatility of the Ascent’s interior seating and generous cargo area are sure to be appealing for families on the go. If you regularly have passengers riding with you or require versatility in handling sports gear, the Subaru Ascent can meet your requirements, offering enough capacity to haul as well.
For Carson City residents, the combination of all-wheel drive, high ground clearance, powerful engine capabilities, and a third row of seating gives you the ability to rely on the vehicle for your daily commute just as you would for extended travels through Nevada or the Sierras.
When choosing which large three-row SUV suits your family’s needs best, your choice depends on how you plan to use your car. Think about how many people you want to fit in it, what capacity for loading you need, your towing capabilities, and what features of technology and comfort will add to your driving pleasure.

How many passengers can the Subaru Ascent carry?
The Subaru Ascent is capable of seating up to eight passengers distributed among three rows of seating.

Regardless of seating setup, you’ll enjoy a generous amount of interior space with significant cargo carrying capacity of up to 75.6 cubic feet with the second-row and third-row seats stowed.
What is Subaru Ascent towing capacity?
Equipped for the task, the Subaru Ascent has an exceptional towing capacity of up to 5,000 lbs and is Subaru’s most capable vehicle for towing purposes. Power is derived from the Ascent’s 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine that comes standard, which generates 260hp and 277 lb-ft of torque, more than enough for boat, camper, and trailer hauling. You can further outfit the Ascent to handle these loads by adding an available trailer hitch.
