Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense is a seriously stylish electric car with comfy suspension and a stunning interior but it’s let down by cramped back seats and limited electric range.

Pros
Fabulous interior
Very comfortable to drive
Plenty of personalisation options

Cons
Cramped back seats
Alternatives are cheaper…
… and have greater ranges

By: 
carwow.co.uk

Not the EV we’d recommend, but if you like the way it looks and battery-power suits your lifestyle then by all means.

Pros
Bit different to look at and sit in,
as practical as ICE car

Cons
Ride comfort,
inconsistent brake pedal,
awkward infotainment

By:

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense offers enough range for most people, but it's far from the best electric car on sale.

Pros
Choice of trim levels
Characterful design
Fast-charging capability

Cons
Shorter range than rivals
Not a huge boot
Feels heavy

The 2021 Subaru Ascent's #13 ranking is based on its score within the Midsize SUVs category. Currently the Subaru Ascent has a score of 7.7 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 30 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Roomy seating
Spacious cargo area
Generous standard features list
Standard all-wheel drive

Cons
Below-average predicted reliability rating

By: 
usnews.com

Subaru's EyeSight suite of advanced driver aids now includes adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist.Steering-responsive LED headlights are now standard.A second- and third-row seat-belt reminder is now standard.

PROS
Substantial list of standard and optional driving aids
High-quality interior materials
Generous ground clearance and standard all-wheel drive
Easy-to-use infotainment system

CONS
Accelerator pedal is too touchy
Invasive engine and tire noise
Not much second-row shoulder room, and third row is tight
Rolling over bumps at higher speeds sends vibrations through the cabin

By:

The latest Ascent receives a handful of new standard features for 2021. These include LED headlights that turn with the steering wheel as well as automatic high-beams. The Touring model also adds another leather upholstery option: Slate Black with silver stitching. And as if the Ascent's incessant beeping notifications weren't annoying enough, all models now have a seat-belt chime that's meant to remind second- and third-row passengers to buckle up.

Pros
Flexible seating configurations,
cushy ride quality,
every model comes with driver assists.

Cons
Apathetic passing power,
noisy engine during hard acceleration,
third row smaller than some rivals.
