Subaru Ascent vs. Honda Pilot

Performance

When you're driving around Glen Falls, you want to be driving a vehicle that provides you with confidence in any weather conditions. The Subaru Ascent lineup delivers that with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive in every model. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive sends power to all four-wheels and will automatically divert it to the wheels with he most traction if any should slip, allowing you to always maintain control. The Honda Pilot comes with standard front-wheel drive, which could leave you wanting for more when facing inclement weather or tougher terrain around Fort Edward.

Under the hood, both the Ascent and the Pilot models have a strong performance.  However, the Ascent provides you with a quicker, more agile driving experience thanks to its standard 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 277 pounds-feet of torque, compared to the 263 pounds-feet of torque in the Pilot.

Features

All the new Subaru Ascent models come with a large and user-friendly 11.6-inch vertical touchscreen display for the Starlink multimedia system, featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration that lets you easily connect and control your smartphone device as you travel to Hudson Falls and beyond. The Honda Pilot lineup also has an infotainment system, but it comes on either a 7-inch or available 9-inch touchscreen display.

Subaru Ascent vs. Toyota Highlander

Performance

Like all other vehicles in its class, the Subaru Ascent lineup stands out from the rest thanks to its standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system, which is a helpful feature for any driver facing poor weather conditions or rugged terrain. The Toyota Highlander lineup offers standard front-wheel drive. All-Wheel Drive is available on all models, but it costs more.
