Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Lots of standard safety and technology features
Adult-friendly seating
Above-average cargo capacity
Standard all-wheel drive

Cons
Rivals are more engaging to drive

By:

For 2022, the only change to the Ascent lineup is the new Onyx Edition. An appearance package based on the seven-seat Premium model, it includes unique black-out exterior elements and 20-inch rims. It also comes standard with a hands-free power liftgate, a heated steering wheel, passive entry with push-button start, and rear automated emergency braking. The lone option package for the Onyx Edition adds onboard navigation, a panoramic sunroof, and a retractable cargo cover.

Pros
Multi-configurable second-row captain's chairs,
standard all-wheel drive and lots of safety tech,
quiet,
smooth ride.

Cons
Highway passes require patience,
engine noise isn't well masked,
third row not fit for adults on long trips.

Pros
All-wheel drive is standard,
actually capable when the blacktop ends,

Not a lot of cargo space,
charging capability isn't particularly quick,
rivals offer more driving range.
