3.8
Overall Rating

Overview
Pros
- Turbocharged Power: A 2.4L turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers 260 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque, giving the Ascent strong acceleration for highway driving and mountain climbs.
- All-Weather Ready: Standard Symmetrical AWD, 8.7 inches of ground clearance, and multiple drive modes make it ideal for Canadian winters and light off-road conditions.
- Family-Oriented Cabin: USB ports at every seat, loads of storage compartments, and ample cargo room make the Ascent road-trip ready.
Cons
- Cramped Third Row: Like many three-row crossovers, the third-row seating is tight for adults on long drives.
- Base Towing Capacity: While max towing is a solid 5,000 lbs, lower trims only manage 2,000 lbs.
- Tech Lags Behind Rivals: The interface is clean and functional, but less refined than those in newer competitors.
