State-of-the-art safety features set the Subaru Ascent apart. EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology is standard for the Ascent. Blind-Spot Detection paired with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert in the Subaru Ascent counters BLIS™ with Cross Traffic Alert in the XC60. Exclusive Subaru STARLINK® Safety and Security features provide greater peace of mind. The XC60 cannot counter Subaru's DriverFocus® Distraction Mitigation System, designed to alert drivers behind the wheel of the Ascent when their attention to the road wavers.

There's more interior space within the Subaru Ascent, which has a max cargo volume of 76 cubic feet, compared to the Volvo XC60 at 63 cubic feet. There's room for extra luggage inside the Subaru Ascent, and if all three rows are occupied, you have 18 cubic feet of cargo space to work with. That tops 17 cubic feet in the XC60, which has 103 cubic feet of interior space. The interior of the Subaru Ascent is much roomier at 153 cubic feet of passenger space. The Subaru Ascent is built to accommodate growing families who need room for up to eight passengers. You have the option of choosing between a seven- or eight-passenger Ascent configuration when you shop at our Subaru dealership in North Attleboro. All XC60 models seat five passengers and lack a third row. Captain's chairs are only offered by the Subaru Ascent. There's extra legroom inside the Subaru Ascent, with over 42 inches in the front and nearly 39 inches in the second row. Those figures top the XC60 by an inch in each row.

The XC60 has a 9-inch center display, while the Subaru Ascent has an 11.6-inch touchscreen and offers the ability connect through Subaru STARLINK® Multimedia. The XC60 has Google services for connectivity. Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™ compatibility is seen inside both SUVs. The Harman Kardon® Quantum Logic Surround Sound system in the Subaru Ascent delivers a more immersive audio experience than the XC60's Harman Kardon® Premium Sound system with no surround sound setup.


Standard Features
Every Subaru Ascent for sale in North Attleboro is powered by a 2.4-liter turbocharged flat-four Subaru BOXER® engine that churns out 260 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. The XC60 has lower standard performance outputs of 247 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque from its turbocharged four-cylinder engine. A Volvo XC60 has a 3,500-pound towing capacity. Families can pull heavier trailers with the Subaru Ascent, thanks to a higher towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. While the XC60 comes with AWD, it doesn't offer a robust name-brand system like the Ascent. Every Ascent is equipped with standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, providing you with sure-footed traction in adverse driving conditions, particularly during the winter months.
