Have you heard to news? Subaru recently announced they're releasing a brand-new, family-friendly, three-row SUV, and, here at Giles Subaru, we can hardly contain our excitement.

The all-new, 2019 Subaru Ascent hasn't quite arrived on our Lafayette lots yet, but, that doesn't make us any less excited to bring it to our customers throughout the area.

The upcoming Ascent marks the first time in a long time that Subaru has released a spacious, three-row SUV, and it promises to be worth the wait.

 

At Giles Subaru, we've known for years that we bring our customers in Louisiana a great selection of world-class, reliable vehicles. But, with recent announcements and a proven track record for success across the U.S., it's more obvious than ever that our Subaru vehicles are the best there is.
