What is the Subaru Solterra?

The Solterra is Subaru’s all-electric SUV, made for everyday use. It brings the brand’s all-wheel-drive experience to a battery-electric model. Subaru and Toyota jointly developed the vehicle and its dedicated electric platform.

The first generation began in 2022. Its upright SUV body gives it a practical shape, while its battery-electric drivetrain sets it apart from Subaru’s petrol and hybrid models. Subaru introduced it as its first global battery-electric SUV.

Engines and power

The Solterra is fully electric, with no petrol engine. Listed power varies by market: EU figures span 80 kW (109 PS) to 167 kW (227 PS), UK figures 160 kW (218 PS) to 218 kW (296 PS), and Canadian figures 160 kW (218 PS) to 254 kW (345 PS). France lists one version at 118 kW (160 PS). These are local market offerings, not one shared specification.

How efficient is the Subaru Solterra?

As an electric vehicle, the Solterra has no tailpipe CO₂ emissions while driving. European WLTP or NEDC, US EPA and Canadian 5-cycle procedures differ, so results from those markets are not directly interchangeable.
