The First-Ever All-Electric Subaru Solterra

October 26 2022 -

Introducing the 2023 Subaru Solterra, the groundbreaking SUV that blends all-electric efficiency with legendary Subaru design and engineering for the first time. In developing the Solterra, the first Subaru battery-electric vehicle (BEV) to be launched globally, the engineers set out to create a fun and practical SUV that would represent a cornerstone for the future.

Above all that, though, the Solterra was designed to stay true to the Subaru brand values—it was engineered to create an authentic Subaru driving experience from start to finish. This means: genuine go-anywhere capability, real-world versatility, and the enjoyment and peace of mind Subaru drivers around the world have come to expect. The 2023 Subaru Solterra delivers all of that and more, plus the sweet and silent benefits of all-electric motoring.

The Solterra may be an all-electric Subaru, but it remains a Subaru to the core. Case in point: The legendary Subaru Symmetrical Full-Time AWD system which, here, sees one electric motor driving the front wheels and another powering the rear wheels. This configuration gives the Solterra superior capability, handling, traction and control in the trickiest of driving conditions. Also standard is the X-MODE® system with Hill Ascent and Descent Assist, which helps maintain the proper traction level to the terrain conditions for more stability and control, generating increased confidence.

The 2023 Subaru Solterra is Subaru’s first ever EV, and will be available in 2023.
