In June, Subaru announced the 2023 Ascent with a small facelift and new features. Now, we have pricing for the entire Ascent lineup, and the MSRP starts at $33,895. Once the mandatory $1,225 destination charge is included, the total entry-level cost is $35,120.
At that price, you'll get the base Ascent with eight-passenger seating and a comfortable range of features like tri-zone climate control, a rear camera, 18-inch aluminum wheels, LED headlights, and no less than 19 cupholders throughout the interior. Subaru's EyeSight driver assist tech is also a standard-issue item, and on the Ascent, that includes the automaker's Wide-Angle Mono Camera. Further on the tech front, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included.
Subaru offers the Ascent in six trim levels for 2023, including a new Onyx Edition that slots between Premium and Limited trims. Starting at $42,520, it offers two center-row seats instead of three for seven-passenger seating. You'll also get more standard equipment, including features like power heated seats for certain passengers, navigation, and 20-inch black wheels. It wears special Onyx badging and features black trim on the outside, and if you want more features, the Onyx is offered in Limited spec. You'll pay for it though, as the Onyx Limited starts at $47,520.
