2021 Subaru Ascent Interior Specs
Whether
it's your turn to carpool to softball practice, or you're taking the
whole family boating on Crane River, the 2021 Subaru Ascent has the
interior space you need for a great outing. With three rows of seats, it can easily carry up to eight passengers with the second-row bench seat or seven passengers with the second-row captain's chairs.
You can also expect the following interior dimensions from your Ascent:
- Passenger volume: 153.5 cubic feet
- Legroom (front/middle/rear): 42.2/38.6/31.7 inches
- Maximum cargo volume: 86.5 cubic feet
Not only does this Subaru SUV let you bring along plenty of passengers, it also opens to provide ample cargo capacity. With a maximum cargo volume of 86.5 cubic feet, this SUV is ideal for when it's time to move your oldest into the dorms at college. The second- and third-row seats fold down completely flat, too, to create a level loading floor.
If you need to bring passengers along, you'll have up to 47.5 cubic feet behind the second-row seats. Behind the third-row seats, you can easily load up a week of groceries in the 17.8-cubic-foot trunk space.
EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology in the 2021 Ascent
One of our favorite things about the 2021 Subaru Ascent is that it strives to keep families safe by making its EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology suite standard on every model. This includes features like:
- Automatic Pre-Collision Braking
- Lane Departure and Sway Warning
- Pre-Collision Throttle Management
EyeSight® also equips you with standard Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering. This provides an extra level of safety and convenience during long highway drives in a variety of ways. For one, Lane Centering uses advanced sensors and gentle steering assists to help you stay centered in your intended lane.
Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control also lets you set a preferred cruising speed and following distance. If you approach slower-moving vehicles on the road, it'll automatically adjust your cruise control speed to go with the flow of traffic.
2021 Subaru Ascent: Standard All-Wheel Drive
Finally, let's take a quick look under the hood. The 2021 Subaru Ascent comes standard with a 2.4L SUBARU BOXER® I-4 engine that produces 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. This is paired with the Lineartronic® CVT (continuously variable transmission).
Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) with X-MODE® comes standard, too, to help you take on those snowy New England winters with confidence. The Subaru Symmetrical AWD system actively adapts your torque distribution based on your roadway conditions to improve traction control.
Meanwhile, X-MODE® optimizes your engine output and transmission ratio to further improve AWD system engagement or provide optimal traction on low-friction surfaces like wet or icy roadways.
