Performance
Every new 2022 Subaru Ascent model delivers a strong, confident, and fun performance. That's because all models come equipped with a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder Boxer engine that produces 260-horsepower and 277 pounds-feet of torque. With that strength, you can enjoy an engaging driving experience with a low center of gravity thanks to the horizontally opposed Boxer engine. You'll also enjoy impressive fuel economy so you can skip the pump on your travels around Baldwin. The engine gets paired to a continuously variable automatic transmission to uphold fuel economy, but paddle shifters also come standard so you can control shifting when you want to feel more engaged behind the wheel.
Having an SUV with all-wheel drive is crucial for St Louis area drivers, especially in the winter. That's why every new 2022 Subaru Ascent model comes equipped with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. With Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, you'll maintain ideal traction, handling, and control, allowing you to drive confidently in bad weather and enjoy the freedom to take your adventures off the beaten path on your next break from the city.
