The Subaru Ascent is the biggest SUV in the Subaru lineup and has family-friendly 3-row seating. The Onyx Edition is a unique trim in the Ascent lineup with a distinct appearance package and many desirable features.
Here are a few perks that make the Subaru Ascent Onyx Edition something different in midsize SUVs.
Black Exterior Trim
The Onyx Edition stands out with a dark appearance package. It has a black grille and black exterior accents giving it a modern look. However, it still carries the Ascent’s rugged personality, hinting at its adventurous capabilities.
20-inch Black Wheels
These stylish wheels are unique to the Onyx Edition. They’re big enough to look good on the Ascent, but you still get a compliant and comfortable ride. If you want these cool black wheels on the Ascent, the Onyx Edition is the only way to get them.
Durable StarTex Upholstery
StarTex upholstery makes the interior of the Ascent both durable and comfortable. This water-repellent material is easy to clean and can hold up to off-road adventures. The seats are trimmed with silver contrast stitching, a nice touch with the black appearance package.
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Like every Subaru SUV, all-wheel drive comes standard on the Ascent Onyx Edition. This makes the Ascent good on snowy roads, but it also comes standard with X-Mode with hill-descent control, making it a pretty good off-roader for a family SUV.
Premium Option Package
The sole option package for the Subaru Ascent Onyx Edition adds some excellent premium features to this SUV. It adds a panoramic moonroof, an 8-inch infotainment system with navigation, and a cargo cover. This option package is easy to recommend if you have a little extra room in your budget.
Second-Row Captain’s Chairs
Second-row captain’s chairs are standard on the Ascent Onyx Edition. These improve comfort for your second-row passengers while making the third row of seats easier to access. If you’re looking for a 3-row SUV with comfort and practicality similar to a minivan, then you’ll love the seating in the Ascent Onyx Edition.
