Subaru Ascent
Unveiled in 2019, the Ascent is Subaru's largest vehicle and the only sport utility in its lineup (since the discontinued Tribeca) to offer three rows of seating. Its standard powertrain includes a turbocharged engine and all-wheel drive, making the midsize crossover a confident performer in all types of weather. It also enables the big Subie to tow up to 5,000 pounds, which is strong for its class. Inside its roomy cabin, the Ascent boasts a user-friendly infotainment system as well as the automaker's comprehensive list of standard driver-assistance features. On the downside, some owners note that the Ascent’s engine, while adequate, can feel sluggish at times. Its fuel efficiency also lags behind some rivals. But overall, the sure-footed Subaru Ascent stands out as a capable and practical choice among three-row SUVs.

Only two bad things about Subaru:1., they don't make a nice passenger seat. The spouse should always have a seat as nice as the driver. The drivers seat is always more adjustable than the passenger. Bad!!!!!2.. the radio will turn itself on when you turn the car on and back up. That drives us crazy. !!!!!!!!

It is a nice vehicle, but the gas milage is terrible. I get better gas mileage in my pickup truck. Also, the software is not easy to use. to do some simple things such as change date and time. Also, the rear lift gate does not have safety sensors. I tried opening it too near a pole (my fault), but the lift gate continued to open bending the sheet metal . If that was a child, it would have crushed their ribs.
