The Subaru Ascent is a family-friendly SUV with lots of cargo room. Like any SUV with room for the whole family, it's designed to keep you and your most precious cargo safe. To show drivers near Parsippany, Wayne, and Morristown how it protects you and helps you avoid accidents, Paul Miller Subaru looks at the Subaru Ascent safety ratings.

Subaru Ascent: Safety Features

The Subaru Ascent is built with a high-strength steel frame. Inside, you'll be protected by seven airbags. The Subaru advanced frontal airbag system comes standard along with a driver's knee airbag and a pair of seat-mounted front side airbags. There are also side curtain airbags that cover all three rows of seats.

The front seats are designed to prevent whiplash and include front seatbelt pretensioners. You can also strap smaller passengers in tightly in the backseats. Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) come standard.

You'll also have excellent visibility during your drive. LED fog lights will help you see through rough weather, while LED Steering Responsive Headlights with High Beam Assist will allow you to see around curves and bends in the road.

Driver-Assist Technology

To help prevent accidents, the Ascent comes with standard Subaru EyeSight®. This bundle of driver-assist technology gives you more awareness during your drive. It covers practically every angle of your SUV with advanced technology, including:

• Pre-Collision Braking
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Lane Departure and Sway Warning with Lane Keep Assist
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management

For even more coverage during your drive, you can add more safety features including Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Reverse Automatic Braking is also available to help you back into a parking space.

You can actually see what's around your SUV too. The Rear-Vision Camera comes standard and uses your infotainment system screen to show you what's behind you. This screen also offers a close up look at what's in front your Ascent using the 180-Degree Front View Monitor.

There's even technology there to help you after an accident. The SUBARU STARLINK® Safety and Security system includes an Advanced Automatic Collision Notification and can send out Enhanced Roadside Assistance and SOS Emergency Assistance.

Capable Drivetrain

The Subaru Ascent is also prepared to keep you in control in any conditions. It comes with Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and a Traction Control System. The drivetrain is specifically designed to prevent skidding with features like X-MODE® and Vehicle Dynamics Control.

On top of providing you with a stable drive, the Ascent is ready to take on tough terrain. It has an 8.7-inch ground clearance and features Hill Descent Control, so you can come down steep trails at a safe speed.

You'll even have a safer time towing with Trailer Stability Assist. It monitors your cargo and keeps your trailer under control and in line with your SUV.
