Having launched the current generation of the Ascent on the American market last year, Japanese carmaker Subaru is giving the model a minor refresh this summer, with the launch of the 2020 model year. And all the improvements come at no extra cost, as the starting price remains the same, $31,995.
The Ascent is Subaru’s largest car, presenting itself as a three-row SUV with seating for seven or eight people and a bench or captain chairs in the second row.

The range is powered by a single engine, a 2.4-liter turbocharged Boxer paired to an 8-speed transmission and manual mode function with steering wheel paddle shifters. The engine develops 260 horsepower and 277 lb.ft. of torque.

Featuring the carmaker’s symmetrical all-wheel drive system, the Ascent has a towing capability of up to 5,000-lb.

The new version of the Ascent will become available this summer at dealers across the U.S. in four trim levels, namely base, Premium, Limited, and Touring.

The entry-level base is priced at $31,995 and comes with a 6.5-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, four USB ports, three-zone automatic climate control, and 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, among others.

The premium, priced from $34,395, adds on top of the base configuration things like Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, power driver seat, and an 8.0-inch navigation system.

The $39,345 Limited comes with a few extras, including leather-trimmed upholstery, LED fog lights, 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and second-row retractable sunshades.

The top of the range Touring will sell from $45,045 and finishes off the range with chrome door handles, front underguard and rear bumper protector, and new power-folding exterior mirrors with integrated turn signals.

There are a series of optional packages available across the range, ranging in price from $1,460 to $2,950. The details on all of them and the SUV can be found in the document attached below.
