Subaru Solterra FAQs

What is the Subaru Solterra?

The Subaru Solterra is an all-electric compact SUV. It uses dual electric motors - one on each axle - to deliver standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, seats five, and charges through a North American Charging Standard (NACS) port that provides access to the Tesla Supercharger network.

Where does the Subaru Solterra fit in the Subaru model lineup?

The Solterra was Subaru's first battery-electric vehicle and anchors the brand's growing EV range. It sits between the smaller Uncharted and the larger, midsize Trailseeker, and is roughly comparable in size to the gas-powered Forester.

What's the difference between the Subaru Solterra and Subaru Uncharted?

Both are electric crossovers, but the Solterra is slightly larger and includes all-wheel drive on every trim. The Uncharted is a smaller, urban-friendly model whose entry trim is front-wheel drive, with dual-motor AWD reserved for its upper trims. The Solterra also offers more traditional SUV proportions and cargo room.

What's the difference between the Subaru Solterra Premium and Limited trims?

The Premium comes well equipped with a large touchscreen, EyeSight driver assistance, and heated front seats. The Limited adds larger alloy wheels, power-adjustable front seats with driver memory, a hands-free power rear gate, heated rear seats, a 360-degree camera system, and Harman Kardon premium audio. Higher XT trims add a more powerful dual-motor powertrain.

Is the Subaru Solterra available as a hybrid?

No. The Solterra is a fully electric vehicle with no gasoline engine, so there is no hybrid version. Shoppers who want electrification without plugging in can consider Subaru's self-charging hybrids, the Crosstrek Hybrid and Forester Hybrid.

Does the Subaru Solterra have all-wheel drive?

Yes. Unlike many electric crossovers that reserve all-wheel drive for upper trims, every Solterra comes standard with dual-motor Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive plus X-MODE terrain management for snow, dirt, and mud.

How many seats does the Subaru Solterra have?

The Solterra seats five passengers across two rows. A flat floor - a benefit of its dedicated EV platform - gives the middle rear passenger more foot room than most gas SUVs provide.

Who is the Subaru Solterra best suited for?

The Solterra fits drivers ready to go fully electric without giving up all-weather traction or ground clearance. It works well for commuters who can charge at home and for outdoor-minded buyers who want an EV that can handle gravel roads and snowy conditions.

Are lease deals available for the Subaru Solterra?

Leasing is a popular route into an EV, and Solterra offers change regularly. See the current programs on the new Subaru Solterra specials page from AutoNation Subaru Carlsbad.
