There is an underfloor storage bin that can hold the parcel shelf if removed and still leaves a decent amount of space for other random stuff.Ģ022 Kia Telluride offers the most space in this segment in both scenarios, with seats up and with them folded.

The third row however folds down easily and creates a seamless cargo floor. If you get the optional captain seats then there will be a void on the cargo floor so be careful not to drop any tiny piece of luggage in there. Folding the second-row seats is a two-step process rather than just flipping a switch you will have to flip two of them and they fold at an angle. The 2022 Subaru Ascent comes with a decent 17.8 cubic feet of cargo space in the trunk with all the seats in position. If only the dashboard could have been a little better, the Subaru Ascent could have been qualified as a luxury SUV in disguise. 2022 Subaru Ascent gets a panoramic sunroof and ambient lighting as well. The presence of ventilated and heated leather seats and sunshades makes this a really great option for luxury seekers on a budget. How can we not mention the ever-so-talked-about feature of this SUV, the 19 cup holders. We are looking at a budget-friendly family SUV here but still, we do get some convenience features. What are the creature comforts in the car?

14-speaker Harman Kardon stereo (Touring Exclusive).

Rockford Fosgate stereo system (optional).What are the highlights of the infotainment system? Well why wouldn’t it be? A small screen and higher resolution makes for a much sharper image overall. Though the screen on this SUV is pretty small, the icons are big and the resolution is nice. The top trim will get a surreal 14-speaker Harman Kardon system which is trim exclusive. You can get a similar setup from Rockford Fosgate and an amplifier for $420 extra for a better overall experience. The standard choice for the sound output here is a set of 6-speakers which will be sufficient enough. The Ascent isn't a top-tier SUV and thus there are very few options in the stereo. All the trims above Base one come with a better 8-inch touch screen which again is small by today's standards.
2022 SUBARU ASCENT ONYX EDITION INTERIOR ANDROID
The 2022 Subaru Ascent underperforms here in the infotainment department with its small 6.5-inch touch screen but thankfully we do get Android Auto and Apple CarPlay standard even on the lowest trim. How good is the 2022 Subaru Ascent’s infotainment system? Also, the seats on the Pilot are among the least supportive ones but they will do the job nonetheless. Honda Pilot is among the exceptions where the cabin isn't really classy we would say but it does feel modern thanks to the digital instrument cluster. The dashboard of Hyundai Palisade has some European design hints and simplicity while Kia Telluride feels exceptionally rich and classy with its wood inlays and optional Nappa leather upholstery. We are in an era where screens do all the work and all these SUVs have digitized the cabins for a majority of the part. Though most of these are only available on top trim you can get a nice family SUV if you want to.Īll the 2022 Subaru Ascent rivals have done a great job in terms of interior.
2022 SUBARU ASCENT ONYX EDITION INTERIOR DRIVER
Ignoring the base trim, the Subaru Ascent has all the features of a luxury vehicle like heated and ventilated seats and memory settings for the driver seat along with interior lighting. Getting on the third row is fairly simple with manually folding second-row seats. Headroom and legroom is plenty, no problems on that front. The optional captain's chairs on the second row are comfortable but with the bench type seating it feels a little cramped. The front row seats have a good amount of bolstering for this class of SUVs but it’s the second and third row that suffer a little. On that note, the seating arrangement on the Subaru Ascent is not particularly great.
