You might imagine that Subaru would launch a new 2.4-liter turbo boxer engine in a shiny sports sedan or one of its famous rally specials. However, it decided to debut this engine in its 2019 Ascent instead, which was its first true three-row family SUV for sale in America. In this application, you’d get the new turbo-four, pushing out 260 hp and 277 lb.-ft of torque, with standard all-wheel drive, available seating for up to eight people, and solid towing capability.
