Reasons to Love Solterra
The First All-Electric SUV with Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
The all-new 2023 Solterra gives you outstanding all-terrain capability in an eco-friendly all-electric SUV. As the first AWD electric vehicle to feature the legendary standard capability of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive – along with generous ground clearance – the Solterra can take you to undiscovered places while its zero-emissions powertrain can help keep them pristine.
Next-Generation Safety
Everything about the 2023 Solterra is advanced, including the ways it can protect you and your passengers. Active safety systems like standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technologies[3] give you extra peace of mind on every drive, and Solterra Connect[4] can link you to help if you need assistance, in addition to delivering available cloud navigation and Intelligent Assistant features.
Trusted Subaru Engineering
You'll love the Solterra for the adventures it can unlock, but you'll trust it because it's a Subaru. Subaru has the longest-lasting vehicles in the automotive industry[5]
Power adventure with the Subaru SUV of electric vehicles.
The all-new, all-electric 2023 Subaru Solterra represents a leap forward in Subaru capability. Named by combining the Latin words for “sun” and “earth,” the Solterra is the first AWD electric vehicle to feature the legendary capability of standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. In addition to our first-ever all-electric architecture – the e-Subaru Global Platform – the zero-emissions Solterra is loaded with state-of-the-art technology like a stunning available 12.3-inch touchscreen, all-terrain capability, 8.3 inches of ground clearance, and dual-function X-MODE® with settings for snow/dirt and deep snow/mud that helps navigate just about any trail condition.
Adventurous and Versatile SUV
Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
As the first-ever all-electric SUV to feature the capability of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, the 2023 Solterra takes this legendary all-weather, all-terrain traction system to exciting new places. The balanced design of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive creates uniform stability and delivers an optimal distribution of power for maximum traction and confident handling. Couple that with the smooth linear output of the dual electric motors in the Solterra and you have outstanding traction and capability on all kinds of road and trail surfaces and in almost any weather condition.
8.3 Inches of Ground Clearance and X-MODE®
The 2023 Solterra has generous ground clearance and short overhangs for easy maneuverability over rough terrain – so you can go places traditional electric vehicles typically can’t reach. Standard dual-function X-MODE with settings for snow/dirt and deep snow/mud lets you choose the perfect traction setting to match conditions for enhanced stability and control, even while going down hills.
Subaru StarDrive® with Driving Mode Select and S-Pedal
Subaru StarDrive offers an enhanced driving experience through Driving Mode Select, which lets you choose from Normal mode for typical trips, Eco mode to conserve battery power, and an extra-responsive Power mode. This advanced technology is engineered with the latest breakthroughs in electric vehicle technology to deliver substantial on-demand torque at all speeds for exciting everyday driving. You get even more control, through paddle shifter-adjustable regenerating braking, and S-Pedal Drive – with additional regenerative braking power to help reduce the fatigue of switching between gas and brake pedals[6].
Subaru Safe and Trusted
Quality Engineering
It may be the first of its kind, but the 2023 Solterra is still a Subaru at heart. You can trust a Subaru vehicle for miles and miles of adventure – 96% of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today, more than any other brand in the industry[7].
EyeSight® Driver Assist Technologies
The 2023 Solterra features standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technologies, which monitor traffic movement, optimize cruise control, and warn you when you’re swaying outside your lane. The Pre-Collision System[3] can apply full braking force and bring you to a complete stop in emergency situations. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control[3] and Lane Tracing Assist[3] can take some of the stress out of driving by helping with steering, braking, and throttle control – both in daily traffic and on long road trips.
Standard on: All trims
Panoramic View Monitor
Panoramic View Monitor is an available 360-degree surround-view camera system which gives a clear picture of the objects around your Solterra, delivering enhanced awareness and safety when parking and reversing.
Standard on: Limited and Touring
All-Around Awareness Technologies
The 2023 Solterra features a comprehensive suite of active safety features to help protect you on every drive. The Blind-Spot Monitor[8] system warns you with a visual indicator on each side mirror if it senses a vehicle in your blind spots. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert[8] helps warn you of traffic approaching from the side as you back up. And with Parking Support Brake, the Solterra can even stop itself to help avoid objects behind you[9].
Standard on: All trims
Safe Exit Assist
Safe Exit Assist, an all-new standard safety technology on Solterra, will beep and display a message if it detects approaching vehicles or moving objects before you open your door[10]. It’s just one more way the Solterra watches out for you – even after you’ve arrived at your destination.
Standard on: All trims
e-Subaru Global Platform
The 2023 Solterra is built on an all-new electric vehicle architecture called the e-Subaru Global Platform. Specifically designed for all-electric vehicles, the e-Subaru Global Platform is the most rigid vehicle platform we’ve ever built, featuring strategic crumple zones and a reinforced structure for secure crash protection.
Eco-Friendly Made Easy
Love Your Subaru and the Earth
The 2023 Solterra is our first zero-emissions all-electric SUV.
The Solterra lets you explore the outdoors and help protect it at the same time. The advanced StarDrive powertrain means no tailpipe emissions and no need for gasoline or oil changes, so every mile has significantly less impact on the environment. The Solterra is the latest example of our commitment to safeguarding the natural world we all share – and it’s just the beginning.
228 Miles of Driving Range with Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
The StarDrive powertrain gives you an EPA-estimated range of up to 228 miles[11] with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive as well as a variety of options for fast and convenient charging, both at home and on the go. The Solterra comes with a charger that works with any standard 120V outlet for Level 1 charging. You can also have a 240V Level 2 charger installed at home so you can plug in overnight and wake up each morning with a full charge[12].
Charge on the Go at Over 46,000 Charging Stations
When you’re out on an adventure, you’ll have access to over 46,000 public Level 2 and Direct Current Fast-Charge (DCFC) charging stations across the country[13] through EVgo – our preferred charging partner and the first public EV fast-charging network in the U.S. to be powered by 100% renewable energy. Solterra features DCFC capability that gives you up to 80% of your battery capacity in about an hour[12], so you can go almost anywhere and find a quick, convenient charger nearby.
Preserving Our Parks
As the largest corporate donor to the National Park Foundation, Subaru has a long history of commitment to protecting our nation’s greatest treasures, helping preserve over 85 million acres of land in America’s more than 400 national parks. Subaru has provided over $68 million to organizations working to conserve our parks, helping fund efforts such as recycling, composting and waste reduction operations. Subaru has also donated its zero-landfill expertise and funding to the parks to help them become more sustainable through the Subaru “Don’t Feed the Landfills” initiative.
Advanced Comfort and Convenience
Subaru Multimedia with available 12.3-inch Touchscreen, Cloud Navigation, and Intelligent Assistant
The 2023 Solterra features the most advanced multimedia system yet, with standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration and a high-resolution 12.3-inch touchscreen that’s available for even more intuitive control. On select models, you can even charge your smartphone wirelessly in the center console while you safely operate the wire- and hands-free connection and enjoy your favorite apps and content. Plus, you can access news, navigation, music, podcasts, and more through available apps and SiriusXM®[14].
Subaru Solterra Connect with Digital Key, and Advanced Park
With Solterra Connect[15], your Solterra and your smartphone make a great team. You can unlock and start select Solterra models using just your smartphone[16]. Remote Start with Climate Control, accessible via the Solterra Connect app, lets you set your preferred temperature so your drive is perfect from start to finish. Advanced Park is an available automatic self-parking system that can be engaged while at the wheel to take the hassle out of parking.

Intelligent Assistant
Intelligent Assistant[17] is a voice-activated vehicle interface for safer, easier use of navigation, media and other vehicle features and tasks. By just saying, “Hey, Subaru,” you can keep your hands on the wheel and let the assistant handle the rest. If you subscribe through Solterra Connect[15], you'll also have access to updated navigation features that allow you to find the nearest charging stations.

In the Solterra Touring, style and comfort can be just as advanced as its electric powertrain.
Interior
The Solterra Touring transports you in more ways than one. Just settling into the advanced comforts and style of its interior is like stepping into the future, with durable two-tone StarTex upholstery and high-tech illuminated trim. A Harman Kardon premium audio system with 576 equivalent watts of power fills the cabin with your perfect driving soundtrack.
20-inch Alloy Wheels
Unique 20-inch alloy wheels feature machine-finished accents and a distinctly modern style.

Interior
Modern, Stylish Cabin
The revolutionary engineering of the Solterra continues into its roomy, comfortable cabin packed with state-of-the-art features and materials like standard Subaru Multimedia with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration and available StarTex-trimmed upholstery.
Spacious, Inviting Interior
With ample passenger space, generous rear legroom, and a flat floor, the 2023 Solterra gives you the airy, open feel of a much larger vehicle. Available StarTex-trimmed upholstery and high-quality, soft-touch materials throughout – along with an available Wi-Fi hotspot[18] – create a connected cabin that’s both modern and full of convenient, comfortable features.
Adventure-Ready Cargo Space
The 2023 Solterra gives you plenty of cargo space – more than the Hyundai Ioniq 5[19] – so you can bring along all the gear you need for all your adventures. The low load height, a wide-opening rear gate, and an available power rear gate all make loading that gear even easier. If you’re hauling larger cargo, raised roof rails are available to take on extra gear, bikes, and more.
Exterior
An Innovation in Design
In every sense, the 2023 Solterra is made for exploring new frontiers. That same bold philosophy went into its cutting-edge exterior design that showcases contrasting protective cladding, striking LED headlights, and clean, modern lines.
Advanced Aerodynamics
From top to bottom, every part of the 2023 Solterra is part of an evolution in vehicle engineering. The available split-design roof spoiler isn’t merely a unique design element; it helps manage airflow in concert with other aerodynamic features and the full underbody tray for quiet, efficient, and safe driving regardless of weather and road conditions.
