How much does the 2024 Subaru Solterra cost?

Prices have softened 7.09% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 451 listings available, which suggests you should have some room to compare prices and equipment.

If you find a listing below $24,659.69, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2024 Subaru Solterra a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Subaru Solterra earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.0/10 expert rating.

The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Technology.

It stands out as an updated version of Subaru’s first electric car, with changes aimed at making it more convincing as an EV. The test-drive notes describe it as stylish and comfortable, and the update adds a new steering wheel plus available ventilated front seats for more everyday appeal.

The trade-offs are clear: unimpressive electric range and underwhelming power. It also has a dissatisfying lane assist system, so you should expect a more practical, safety-focused EV than a quick or especially long-legged one.

With 27.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market gives you a decent chance to find a competitive price.

Is the 2024 Subaru Solterra reliable?

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

The 2024 Solterra is presented as a more credible EV than before, thanks to updated charging and a refreshed safety package. The test-drive notes also describe it as structurally sound, which supports confidence in day-to-day use.

Its electric-drive setup is straightforward, and Subaru says charging performance has improved for this model year. The cost-effectiveness notes also point you toward home charging as the easiest way to live with it, which matters because public charging speed and range remain weaker points.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a battery- and charging-limited EV can feel less flexible as mileage and charging needs add up.

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

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 95.6% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has spent time on public fast chargers or shows uneven charging behavior. Focus on battery condition, charging performance, tire wear, and whether the driver-assistance systems behave as expected on a test drive.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup is simple, with Premium, Limited, and Touring trims. The base trim is the one most likely to leave you without the larger screen and premium audio found higher up, so check whether the equipment mix matches your needs.
• Powertrain: Every Solterra uses a dual-motor AWD setup with 215 horsepower and 249 pound-feet of torque. It’s efficient enough for the class, but the notes call the power modest.
• Safety package: EyeSight includes front cross-traffic alert, proactive driving assist, hands-free driving under 25 mph, active lane-change assist, DriverFocus, intersection collision avoidance, emergency steering assist, emergency stop assist, and a traffic-ahead-moving notification. The lane-centering system is a known weak point.
• Infotainment: Premium gets an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto. Limited and Touring upgrade to a 12.3-inch screen, plus a surround-view camera, wireless charging, and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon 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 quicker for 2024, though real-world DC fast-charging still trails the quickest rivals.
• Battery health: Check state-of-health, ask how the car was typically charged, and confirm whether most charging happened at home or on DC fast chargers. Also verify how much of the battery warranty remains so you know what protection you still have.

Which 2024 Subaru Solterra trim should I buy?

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

Here's the short version:

• Premium: This is the value pick if you want the Solterra’s core EV hardware, standard AWD, and wireless smartphone integration without paying for the larger screen and premium audio. It also gives you the longest range in the lineup at 227 miles.
• Limited: This is the best-value upgrade if you want the more upscale tech experience. You get the 12.3-inch touchscreen, surround-view camera, wireless charging, and the Harman Kardon audio system, while range remains competitive at 222 miles.
• Touring: Choose this if you want the most fully equipped Solterra, especially if you value the added convenience and premium feel of the top trim.

The safety package is broad across the lineup, but the lane-centering behavior still deserves a careful test drive no matter which trim you choose.

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

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but should move quickly on strong listings.

• Deal availability: 27.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 451 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.09% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 95.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,659.69, 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 $25,595 sits slightly below last year's $27,549.

That softer pricing suggests the Solterra has already moved through some early depreciation, which can help future resale if you buy at the right number. The current market also shows enough inventory to keep pricing competitive, so condition and equipment will matter when you eventually sell.

Because the model has strong owner satisfaction, it should continue to attract shoppers who want a Subaru-branded EV with standard AWD and a strong safety story.

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 five-star overall rating from NHTSA and a Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS.

It earns a 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, intersection collision avoidance, emergency steering assist, emergency stop assist, and a traffic-ahead-moving notification. That’s a deep list of standard driver-assistance features.

The caveat is execution: the lane-centering assist struggles in curves, and the driver-information display can be distracting because it tries to show too much at once. So while the hardware list is strong, you should test the system carefully on roads similar to your daily commute.

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:

• 27.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 95.6% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.09% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 update improves charging, adds comfort features, and refreshes the standard safety package.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $23,491, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $25,595 average.
• It offers Subaru’s first all-electric model with standard symmetrical AWD and a sensible, practical cabin.

The bottom line: If you want the more refined and better-equipped Solterra, the 2024 is the stronger buy. If your priority is spending less up front and you’re comfortable giving up the updates, the 2023 is the value-oriented path.
