The 2023 list of three-row family haulers offering second-row captain’s chairs is shrinking, but it also sees a couple of new additions.
Having received minor styling and technology updates last year, the Subaru Ascent rolls into the 2024 model year largely unchanged.
A new study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has revealed that most mid-size SUVs lack good protection for rear occupants in frontal crashes.
IIHS has released its list of Top Safety Picks for 2023, which includes 48 models across both Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick+ categories — less than half compared to the 101 models that qualified in 2022.
Subaru’s latest recall for its three-row SUV stems from the electrical system and could lead to a fire.
Even as more new vehicles employ automatic emergency braking systems with pedestrian detection, IIHS finds these systems often fail to work in the dark.
The 2023 Ascent gets a larger touchscreen, improved safety tech and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.
The 2022 three-row SUVs that offer captain’s chairs are listed by root model name, though some models may or may not offer captain’s chairs in hybrid or other variants.
The most noticeable change inside the 2023 Ascent is a new 11.6-inch standard touchscreen with Subaru’s latest multimedia system, which it shares with the 2023 Outback.
Subaru has issued a recall for some 198,300 vehicles due to a programming error with its transmission control unit.
