SAFETY
Subaru Ascent

Between school drop-offs and extracurricular activities, safety is a top priority. The Subaru Ascent recognizes your need for next-level safety. The proof is in the pudding. The Subaru Ascent was named a 2023 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ and received the highest possible rating from the IIHS for pedestrian front crash prevention.

You Have Eyes Everywhere

The 2024 Subaru Ascent provides enhanced visibility, proving to your kids that you have eyes in the back of your head. The strategically placed cameras and sensors of the EyeSight® Driver Assist System monitor your surroundings and alert you to potential hazards.

Standard Safety Features:

  • Pre-Collision Braking
  • Lane Departure and Sway Warning
  • Lane Keep Assist
  • Automatic Emergency Steering
  • Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering

For those who want 360 degrees of safety monitoring, Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert are available.

Slippery Roads Never Looked So Safe

Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD), a standard feature, provides enhanced stability and control, even when battling slippery roads. By constantly evaluating performance output, Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive can make systematic adjustments and redistribute power to the wheels that most need grip.

With this system positioned along the centerline of the Ascent, you’ll have equal weight distribution for even more optimized control. As a result, you’ll feel completely engaged with the road, allowing you to get from Point A to Point B, regardless of weather conditions.
