2013 Isuzu Ascender 7 passenger SUV Review Pictures

Introduced in 2003 to replace the aged Trooper, the seven-passenger Ascender promises "full-size spaciousness and performance with midsize maneuverability and price. The Ascender certainly one-ups the competition when it comes to seven-passenger comfort and overall cargo capacity. Combined with the powerful engines, it makes quite a case for itself in this hard-fought segment. In most areas, the Ascender matches up favorably. 2013 Ascender is Isuzu's largest and most powerful SUV.
This three-row, seven-passenger vehicle is offered with either a 4.2L in-line six producing 275-hp or a 5.3L V-8 boasting 290-hp. Both engines are coupled with a four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. The Ascender is available in S, LS, and Limited trim packages, in either two or four-wheel drive configurations. Ascender's seven-year/75,000-mile drivetrain warranty is the best in its class. The standard warranty among chief contenders is three years/36,000 miles. This could be good news for those who intend to keep their car indefinitely because of its purported low resale value. Motivated by a V8 with 290 horsepower at 5,200 rpm and 325 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm, the mean green machine powered up mountain passes with authority and cruised serenely on the open highway.
