Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! Ascent or Grand Highlander?
Highlander beacause it’s reliable and I already have 2024 highlander platinum not grand
@@noone9.0 nice, enjoy it!
What was the mpg on the Toyota grand highlander
GRAND HIGHLANDER IS The CLASS LEADER WHILE .SUBARA CANT EVEN BE COMPARED
@@dwnshft Ty!
No Auto Start/Stop crap here which a lot of competitors do have in their vehicles….thanks for that Subaru! 👍🏾
0-60 mph in this is 7 seconds making it slightly faster than Hyundai/Kia and Volkswagen. It’s definitely not under powered.
the power liftgate buttons are on the left because most of the world is right handed so when you pull your cargo out of the back..its most likey with your right hand, meaning your left hand is free to reach up and hit the button.
Ah yes...common sense previals 😊
I love mine, which I have had for about a month now. I have not noticed the lack of power. They have it tuned to get the torque when you need it. As for the third row, I would just as soon not have one. I keep them flat. OK for kids.
One thing you did not mention is the width of the legroom up front. Some vehicles in this segment, like the Highlander, have you in a bit of a tunnel in the drivers seat. The console is right against your right knee. This has more room laterally, which is nice on a long trip, when you want to move around more. I have Onyx and that adds quite a bit to the price, but it is worth it, IMO. Sound system is great.
Agreed. The center console intrudes on leg space in the competition making it much less comfortable. Especially if you’re taller.
For a family vehicle, many of us are not looking for innovation or bells and whistles, we are looking for steadfast, reliable, uncomplicated such as analog gauges, easy controls, simplicity and a sure grip on the road. We want a subaru to be a subaru.
Absolutely agree ❤
💯💥
I have a Onyx Limited after owning a Toyota Highlander 6 years. I will not go back to Toyota after owning a Subrau
3rd row is t the biggest but all you need to do is adjust the second row and let all rear passengers get even space.
Not everyone wants a digital instrument cluster.
But you have a phone like it!
@@Mklpz000how dumb
Sadly this is the way the future will look, regardless of brand/model. Gotta embrace it eventually.
Such a silly way of thinking. What shall the engineers at Subaru do Mr?
I have a 2021 Touring and it’s been great for family trips and made a joke of the snowy Vermont mountains. It does everything I need and the dog loves the 3rd row to himself. I’ve packed the in-laws into the 3rd row with the dog sitting in between the second row chairs. I’m not a fan of the cvt but the awd is reliable and predictable. Yes I would like another 20-30 hp, but this isn’t a race car.
If I buy an Ascent, it will be for the towing capacity in a Subaru, not the 3rd row.
I wouldn't tow with it... nothing big.
@jaimemartin6704 rated at 5k, 50% = 2.5k less 200 lbs per person, 50 lbs of luggage per person doesn't leave alot of spare room for towing much...I did see a Prius towing a steel trailer with an ATV on it the day, on I25 NB...so....😅
@@reneeann5340 There was a guy in our neighborhood... had trimmers and mowers on a steel and wood trailer.. pulled it with a classic MG. I wouldn't tow with the ascent because of the CVT transmission. If it slips once, its a gonner.
I rent one (2023) in California last summer, I have 5 kids and let me tell you this thing is not underpower. If you push it, you will feel that turbo.
I have a 2024 Ascent. I don't think for a minute that it's under-powered. Gets me merging on the highway with no problem at all. Then again, I don't race other people or their cars. Plenty of power for me and it's supposed to tow 5,000 lbs. and that's plenty. Also love the ride.
Handles close to 5000 perfectly fine actually, we have a '23 👍🏼
I love my 2020 Ascent so much that I ordered the 2024. Guess it's a Colorado thing!
What you do get is Subaru's dependability, which is top notch. We just purchased the touring ascent. It's wonderful to drive or be a passenger. The third row seats lack leg and head room, but ours will be used to transport the dog or luggage.
We sold our 2012 outback and the ascent is a huge improvement.
Subaru changed how they measure cargo volume recently. With all seats down it originally measured 86 cubic feet making it competitive with other makes.
I have one and love it. You could have just started the video saying I hate Subaru, done.
This should be compared to the Santa Fe and the Sorento.
Have had a 2023 touring for about 9 months (also have a 2020 outback). The boxer 4 turbo is not underpowered for this - have been impressed with it. I personally don’t use the 3rd row and keep it flat. If you are looking for something to haul 7-8 people in on a regular basis, I’d go with something else (e.g. minivan). All wheel drive is what you’d expect from a Subaru. The lane assist and adaptive cruise work well. Good value for the price….I’d buy another one for sure.
Hi what is the tow capacity or the GVWR? Thank you credit video
I got a 2022 just to avoid the screen and actually just wanted the extra rear legroom and cargo room. The other 3rd rows SUVs were just too big. We’ve fit teens in the third row with no issue but definitely not for adults
My 2015 Nissan Murano has the hatch button on the left side also
my 2023 when is full blast a/c & heaters is really loud.. 3rd row seat belts are hard to click in when having a booster seat on any place, key fob remote weak signal, carplay keep disconnec avery 10-15min
This was a great review. I don't have any 6ft adults riding in the back, so it's perfect
glad you liked the video!
Its an asian third row so its fine
Thank you for the review this will be a great platform for a massive wilderness just saying I’m just nobody
Deep Snow/Mud allows wheel spin if you need to get unstuck or keep momentum.
Easy fix if you wanted to get more power , just get wrx sti performance parts and put it on ascent should be around 300 hp
Sure footed? No snow tires?
It is Subaru Forester in Europe?
You clearly did not use the camera correctly it had wheel view and front view when driving for off-roading.
Hmmm digital rearview mirror no heated and cool seats like you would get in the grand Highlander, and I’m not sure why they reviewers are continue, mentioning the unreliable Atlas and the Korean twins which have less reliability than Subaru and Toyota
Nice suv.
Do the lights turn with the steering wheel?!
On higher trim level...I think
My touring does
It's an option
They have a 3.6 6 cylinder outback
Not anymore😢
Ask a body tech which is the best car... Toyota and Subaru are the winners. Mazda and Hyundai SUCkS bug time! Stupid review!
It´s NOT underpowered
Brake failure every 11,000 miles. Finally got it lemon lawed. After 6 Subaru’s, I will never buy another. Subaru only cares about there profits.
Is there a reason why you had 6
If i cared about materials i buy a mercedes.
