  1. Assist grip

In the Subaru Ascent, the assist grip is designed to provide additional support and stability for passengers while the vehicle is in motion. It helps occupants maintain balance during acceleration, braking, and cornering, improving overall comfort and безопасность during travel.

Do not use the assist grip as a support when getting in or out of the Subaru Ascent. Pulling on the grip in this manner may damage it or cause it to break, potentially resulting in injury.
