Introducing a more powerful engine is one of the most significant changes to the 2023 Subaru Ascent model. The 2.4-liter turbocharged BOXER engine now delivers 277 horsepower, an increase from the previous 260 horsepower. The additional power translates to better handling, acceleration, and the ability to tow more weight, making it an ideal vehicle for those with a taste for adventure.
Subaru has always been known for its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD), and this feature is given an upgrade in the 2023 Subaru Ascent model. With the addition of Active Torque Vectoring, the AWD now delivers an even more precise and controlled drive, especially on twisty roads. The Subaru Ascent's performance is enhanced further by including X-Mode, which optimizes engine output and AWD to adapt to slippery or uneven terrain.
The 2023 model comes with an updated CVT that delivers a smoother and more comfortable ride, regardless of the terrain. The quicker acceleration and improved torque improve overall performance, ideal for long-distance traveling or daily Gresham, OR driving. Check it out at Gresham Subaru today.
