2021 Subaru Ascent vs. 2021 Toyota Highlander

Performance

  • Whether you primarily drive around Nederland on your way to work or you enjoy getting out of town and exploring the outdoors around us, with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on every new Subaru Ascent model, you can enjoy optimal traction, control, and confidence regardless of the terrain you're facing. The new Toyota Highlander comes equipped with standard front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is available on every model, but it will cost more, which further increases the price divide between the two vehicles.
  • Both vehicles offer impressive fuel economy in the city and on the highway, with the Highlander gaining 1 mpg combined over the Ascent. However, the Ascent comes with a 19.3 gallon gas tank while the Highlander comes with a 17.9 gallon tank, meaning that you can travel further on a single tank of gas in the Ascent.
  • The Subaru Ascent comes equipped with a standard 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine while the Highlander comes equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 engine. The Highlander gets the edge on horsepower, but the Ascent offers 277 pounds-feet of torque, compared to 263 pounds-feet of torque in the Highlander.
