To help make your decision easier, we’re going to compare the new Subaru Ascent lineup to some of its top competitors, including the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Ford Explorer, giving you a side by side look at some of the benefits of choosing a new Ascent model over the competition.
Subaru Ascent vs. Toyota Highlander
You can easily travel in any weather conditions or terrain around Rockland thanks to standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on every new Subaru Ascent model. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive always sends power to all four wheels and will automatically divert it to the wheels with the most traction, helping you always maintain control. The Toyota Highlander lineup comes with standard front-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive models costing more.
The new Subaru Ascent and Toyota Highlander models both offer impressive fuel economy, with the Highlander lineup achieving slightly higher numbers. However, the Subaru Ascent lineup has 19.3 gallons of fuel capacity, compared to 17.9 gallons of fuel capacity in the Highlander. This lets you travel further on a full tank when you choose a Subaru Ascent model.
You can drive with greater confidence in both the Subaru Ascent and the Toyota Highlander, as each comes with a suite of impressive driver assistance features. However, only the Subaru Ascent models come with standard steering responsive LED headlights which turn with the direction of the wheel, helping illuminate the way ahead as you’re turning a corner.
Subaru Ascent vs. Honda Pilot
You’ll always enjoy the utmost traction and control in a new Subaru Ascent model, as all come with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, always providing you with the best possible traction and control, regardless of the weather around Chubbuck or the terrain across the country. The new Honda Pilot lineup comes with standard front-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive available on all models at a higher price.
The new Honda Pilot lineup has a slight advantage with more standard horsepower than the Subaru Ascent. However, the Ascent lineup gets the nod for more torque, with 277 pounds-feet compared to 262 pounds-feet in the Pilot.
It’s easy to stay connected when you’re traveling around American Falls, as all models come with a standard Starlink multimedia system on an 11.6-inch touchscreen display. The Honda Pilot lineup comes with a standard 7-inch or available 9-inch touchscreen display for its infotainment system.
