The Solterra crossover is largely similar to the Toyota bZ4X, but because it’s a Subaru, it naturally comes standard with all-wheel drive. The two electric motors combine to generate 215 horsepower, drawing energy from a 72.8kWh battery. Maximum range is rated at 360 km, which is far from segment-leading. Subaru engineers have also limited fast-charging capability in order to increase battery longevity. Keep in mind that towing is not recommended with this particular EV.
Denver, Colorado— Launched in 2022, the Subaru Solterra —Toyota bZ4X’s non-identical cousin—is still a fairly rare electric vehicle on Canadian roads. Its limited range and charging capability initially cooled many consumers' enthusiasm. However, the small Japanese automaker is not giving up on its electric push: Subaru plans to introduce two …
Victoria, British Columbia— Along with the nearly identical Toyota bZ4X , the Subaru Solterra is one of the least impressive electric SUVs on the market from a technology standpoint. And don’t get us started on the design. Following a rough start in terms of sales, things could only get better …

There's a lot of buzz around the 2023 Subaru Solterra . It's the first large-scale production vehicles for the manufacturer, and it sits on the same platform as the Toyota bZ4X and the Lexus RZ . LP and Gab are spicing things up for this 10th episode of The Car …
As you probably know by now, the 2023 Subaru Solterra and the Toyota BZ4X share the same platform and were co-developed by the Japanese duo to introduce a first global electric car for both manufacturers. And if you’ve been remotely interested in either one, you know that the waiting lists …
While the Subaru Solterra has largely disappointed since launching in 2023, forcing the company to offer big discounts and even skip the 2025 model year, the story could be very different with the significantly improved 2026 Solterra which is now on sale in Canada. Before we share pricing details, which …
A trio of related electric crossovers are now the subject of a joint recall due to a possible windshield defroster issue. Affected models are the 2023-2025 Toyota bZ4X and Lexus RZ as well as the 2023-2024 Subaru Solterra . The recall includes over 21,600 units in Canada—essentially every single one …
The Subaru Solterra , the Japanese brand's first electric vehicle, was introduced in 2023 and hasn’t proven particularly convincing so far. The revised and significantly improved 2026 model will rectify this thanks to a major mid-cycle update. First of all, the new front end is a striking departure from the …
Seeing how EV demand is slowing, car companies working together are in a better position to lower development and production costs and adjust to the market. Subaru knows that. During a recent earnings call, CEO Atsushi Osaki announced that the three new electric SUVs and crossovers set to join the …
Subaru may have saved a ton of money by teaming up with Toyota to develop and launch its first all-electric vehicle, the Solterra , but the result has been largely underwhelming so far. Sales in Canada last year were barely a third of those posted by popular rivals like the …
Last May, new Subaru CEO Atsushi Osaki announced the launch of four new electric vehicles by the end of 2026. All of them should be sold in North America, which is great. We suspect these will be crossovers, including possibly an Outback -style model. Now, via Automotive News , which …
Subaru has been criticized by many for not doing enough when it comes to electrification. Following the disappointing and nearly invisible Crosstrek PHEV (now discontinued), the brand launched the all-electric Solterra , which doesn’t really stand out from the competition and suffers from extremely limited availability. New Subaru CEO Atsushi …

Smashing toys or bumper cars together was fun, but harmless. No one got hurt and no repairs had to be made. In the real world, a car crash can be devastating financially, mentally, or physically. Currently, there's no foolproof way of preventing accidents, with Transport Canada's latest public report in …
