The Ascent may be the largest SUV in the Subaru lineup, but that doesn’t mean its size sacrifices its capability and performance. If anything, it delivers exceptional ruggedness that the brand is known for, so you and your entire crew can embark on adventures with total confidence. Learn how the 2026 Subaru Ascent performs on the roads of Fort Bliss in the following guide from Group 1 Subaru El Paso.

Besides the impressive 2026 Subaru Ascent horsepower, you’ll also enjoy optimal traction on your Mission Valley drives thanks to standard features like Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and X-MODE®.
