Drivers can find six Ascent trims at our dealership near Avon, ranging from a basic vehicle to one fully loaded with all the conveniences. Select from the Base, Premium, Onyx Edition, Limited, Onyx Edition Limited, and Touring. Every Ascent model comes with some impressive standard features, including a vertically-oriented 11.4-inch touchscreen, satellite radio, keyless entry, a rear spoiler, roof rails, and several impressive driver-assist systems. The top Touring trim gives owners a surround-view camera, push-button start, built-in navigation, heated mirrors, an integrated garage door opener, power front seats, leather seating surfaces, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a power liftgate, privacy glass, and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
Every Ascent model we sell comes equipped with a 2.4-liter turbocharged inline-four gas engine. This setup produces 260 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. Subaru's symmetrical all-wheel drive is standard so owners will get outstanding traction, regardless of weather or road conditions. X-Mode with hill descent control is also standard, making this SUV an excellent vehicle for off-road adventures near Torrington, CT. The Ascent has a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds so that you can take along a small recreational vehicle. Owners will get a comfortable and quiet ride with light and accurate steering.
The new Ascent received a significant makeover for 2023, giving it a new grille and bold exterior stance, plus an attractive LED light signature for your journeys to Simsbury. Its appearance changes slightly with each trim, notably with the Onyx Edition and Onyx Edition Limited. These trims have an appearance package featuring black-finish exterior accents and 20-inch black-finish aluminum alloy wheels.
While the Ascent can set up to eight, owners can elect to get second-row captain's chairs that fold nearly flat, reducing the capacity to seven. The seat design is supportive for long road trips around Litchfield Hills, CT. The standard seats become nicer in mid to upper trims with water-repellant StarTex in the Onyx Edition and leather seats in the Touring trim. Behind the third row, it has 17.8 cubic feet of cargo space and 75.6 cubic feet, with the second and third rows folded. The Ascent incorporates some clever cargo solutions, including Velcro straps in the cargo area to hold up the load floor when you need additional space.
A standard 11.6-inch touchscreen with large icons is easy to see, responsive, and within easy reach of the driver. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Buyers can upgrade the audio system to a 13-speaker Harman-Kardon stereo for high-quality entertainment during their trips to Bristol, CT. The Ascent is an IIHS+ Top Safety Pick, meaning it has the highest marks in crash tests. Subaru EyeSight®, the manufacturer's extensive suite of driver-assistive amenities, comes with a blind-spot alert, forward collision warning system with emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane-center assist, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and a driver attention assist monitor.
