Subaru’s first and only EV, the Solterra, is getting a facelift for 2026 with many upgrades that include a better AWD system, longer range, and improved performance.

Outback-sized SUV’s dual-motor drivetrain hauls it to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds and delivers more than 260 miles of electric range

Subaru says the new EV can travel up to 260 miles of range on a charge, which is still less than the similarly sized Chevrolet Blazer EV and Honda Prologue. Charging is through a built-in Tesla-style NACS port, and its maximum DC fast charging speed is 150 kW—50 percent higher than the current Solterra’s rate, but eclipsed by many competitors.
