Used 2024 Subaru Solterra for Sale nearRockford, IL

How much does the 2024 Subaru Solterra cost?

Prices have softened 7.52% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 455 listings available, which suggests you should have a workable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Subaru Solterra a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Subaru Solterra earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Technology.

The 2024 Solterra is positioned as an updated version of Subaru’s first electric car, with changes aimed at making it more convincing as an EV. It brings a stylish design, a comfortable cabin, and strong safety ratings, while also adding comfort, convenience, and utility improvements. It works best if you want an approachable electric crossover with standard all-wheel drive and a familiar Subaru feel.

The main trade-offs are unimpressive electric range and underwhelming power. The lane assist system is also a weak point, so you should expect a more practical, safety-focused EV than a quick or especially engaging one.

35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Subaru Solterra reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The 2024 Solterra is described as a more credible EV than before, with upgraded battery charging and added comfort and convenience improvements. It also feels structurally sound, and the expert summary points to a more convincing overall package than the earlier version. The performance notes suggest the EV is competent in everyday driving, with secure handling and no major chassis issues showing up in testing.

Subaru also says charging performance has improved for 2024, and the cost-effectiveness notes suggest home charging overnight is the easiest way to live with it. For used buyers, the biggest long-term ownership risk is still the same one that affects the model overall: limited range and charging speed can make the EV experience less satisfying if your driving pattern depends on frequent public charging.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Solterra?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 95.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re comparing multiple listings with different mileage and charging habits. Focus on overall condition, charging behavior, and whether the vehicle has been used mostly for home charging or frequent DC fast charging. For an EV, battery health matters as much as cosmetic condition, so you want to understand how the car has been treated before you buy.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup is simple, and the Premium trim gives you the most basic version of the Solterra’s interior and tech setup, while Limited and Touring add a larger screen, wireless charging, and a premium audio system. The base trim is the one most likely to leave you without some of the nicer convenience and infotainment upgrades.
• Powertrain: Every Solterra uses a dual-motor electric drive system with standard AWD. Output is modest at 215 horsepower and 249 pound-feet of torque, so you should buy with realistic expectations about acceleration and passing power.
• Safety package: EyeSight is standard, and it includes front cross-traffic alert, proactive driving assist, hands-free driving at speeds under 25 mph, active lane-change assist, DriverFocus monitoring, intersection collision avoidance, emergency steering assist, emergency stop assist, and a traffic-ahead-moving notification. The execution is not perfect, so you should pay attention to how the system behaves on your test drive.
• Infotainment: Premium trim gets an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto. Limited and Touring upgrade to a 12.3-inch touchscreen, plus a surround-view camera, wireless smartphone charging, and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon audio system.
• Range & charging: Premium is rated at 227 miles of range, while Limited and Touring are rated at 222 miles. The battery is 72.8 kWh, and Subaru says charging is improved for 2024, though the test-drive notes still point to slower DC fast charging than some rivals.
• Battery health: Ask how the battery has been charged, whether the car has relied mostly on home charging, and whether any fast-charging patterns suggest heavy public-charging use. You should also confirm how much of the battery warranty remains and review any available battery state-of-health information before you commit.

Which 2024 Subaru Solterra trim should I buy?

The 2024 Subaru Solterra is offered in 3 trim levels: Premium, Limited, and Touring.

Here's the short version:

• Premium: This is the best-value choice if you want the Solterra’s core EV hardware, standard AWD, and wireless smartphone integration without paying for the higher-end convenience upgrades. It gives you the essential Solterra experience at the lowest price point.
• Limited: This is the trim to target if you want the strongest balance of equipment and value. It adds the larger 12.3-inch touchscreen, surround-view camera, wireless charging, and the premium audio system, making it the most appealing step-up for many shoppers.
• Touring: Choose this if you want the most fully equipped Solterra, with the same upgraded tech and convenience features as Limited plus the top-end presentation and equipment level.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, so you do not need to move up a trim just to get the core EyeSight features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Solterra?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 455 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.52% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 95.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,664, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Subaru Solterra's resale value?

The current average of $25,614 sits slightly below last year's $27,697.

That price movement suggests the market has softened, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also limit upside if you plan to sell soon. If you own one for a few years, resale value will likely depend on how well the vehicle’s range, charging performance, and overall condition hold up in the used market. A lower entry price today can help offset some future depreciation, especially if you buy near the low end of the range.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Subaru Solterra safe?

The 2024 Subaru Solterra earns a Top Safety Pick+ from IIHS and a five-star overall rating from NHTSA.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

The EyeSight suite includes front cross-traffic alert, proactive driving assist, hands-free driving under 25 mph, active lane-change assist, DriverFocus monitoring, intersection collision avoidance, emergency steering assist, emergency stop assist, and a notification when traffic ahead starts moving again. That is a deep feature set, but the lane-centering assist can struggle in curves, so you should test it carefully and not assume every assist feature will feel polished in daily use.

Should I buy a 2024 Subaru Solterra or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 95.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.52% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 update improves battery charging, refreshes the standard safety suite, and adds comfort and convenience upgrades.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $23,181, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $25,614 average.
• It is Subaru’s first all-electric model and brings the brand’s familiar character into the EV space without leaning too hard into a futuristic feel.

The bottom line: If you want the more developed Solterra with better charging, updated safety tech, and added comfort features, the 2024 is the better path. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2023 can still make sense as a lower-cost entry into the Solterra lineup.
