The Subaru Ascent vs. The Toyota Highlander

We've put together a comparison on these SUVs for our Springfield, IL customers. Our Subaru dealership near Chatham, IL will work to get you the information you need today.
If you're looking for power, you can't go wrong with the new Subaru Ascent. The Ascent comes with a standard turbocharged flat-four-cylinder engine cranking out 277 pound-feet of torque. On the other hand, the Highlander's standard six-cylinder engine isn't turbocharged and only produces 215 pound-feet of torque. Both SUVs are paired with continuously variable automatic transmissions as well and have impressive fuel economies to get you around town without constant refills. Additionally, the Ascent comes standard with Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive to help you conquer the rain, snow, and dirt with ease. The Ascent also has a 19.3-gallon fuel tank and the Highlander's fuel tank only holds 17.2 gallons.
Safety Features
Your safety is key, and the new Subaru Ascent is designed to keep you protected. The Ascent and Highlander both come with a variety of standard and optional safety features for you and your passengers. Available safety features in the Ascent include EyeSight advanced safety system with sway warning, adaptive cruise control, lane departure, and pre-collision braking. There is also rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot detection, and lane-change assist.
Space
Both of these SUVs hold up to eight passengers with ample space for you and your family. The Ascent also has more legroom for second and third row passengers. For those weekend getaways, the Ascent has more available cargo space than the Highlander as well to load up all of your gear.
