Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryThe Solterra arrived for the 2023 model year as the first all-electric Subaru for the United States, and now it’s getting some significant updates. The 2026 Subaru Solterra has a new look, NACS fast charging, and more available horsepower. Rivals include other small electric crossovers like the Chevrolet Equinox EV, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Volkswagen ID.4, plus the Solterra’s Toyota bZ twin (formerly the bZ4X). Verdict: Numerous improvements make the 2026 Subaru Solterra a better EV, but not the best one. | |
