Subaru is making a significant push into the electric vehicle (EV) market with the announcement of three new electric SUV models: the 2025 Subaru Solterra, the updated 2026 Solterra for the European market, the Subaru Uncharted, and the E-Outback. Each model targets different segments of the EV market, offering varying specifications, prices, and release dates.
2025 Subaru Solterra
The entry-level all-electric SUV currently available in the US, the 2025 Subaru Solterra, boasts a 215-hp dual motor AWD setup, delivering up to 227 miles of range and starting around $38,495. It features rugged capabilities including 8.3 inches of ground clearance, X-MODE terrain settings, and quick charging from 10% to 80% in about 35 minutes.
Updated 2026 Solterra (European)
The updated 2026 Solterra for the European market improves power to 344 hp and range to more than 310 miles with a slightly larger 73.1 kWh battery. It accelerates 0-62 mph in 5.1 seconds, doubles the towing capacity to 1,500 kg, and upgrades the interior with a 14-inch infotainment screen and wireless charging. Pricing and exact specs for the UK are yet to be announced.
Subaru Uncharted 2026
The Subaru Uncharted 2026 is a smaller, sporty compact crossover offering up to 338 hp from dual electric motors and an AWD X-MODE system. The base Premium trim is front-wheel drive only, providing over 300 miles of range with 221 hp for a more affordable option. It has a quick 0-60 mph time under 5 seconds, a 14-inch infotainment display, and improved maneuverability with a smaller footprint than Solterra.
E-Outback 2026
The E-Outback 2026 is planned as a next electric SUV with increased cargo space compared to Solterra. It shares Subaru’s electric AWD system and updated technology suite. Launch is expected in mid-2026, with pricing and full specs yet to be announced.
These models reflect Subaru’s focus on AWD capability, ruggedness, and competitive range and performance across different price and size segments in the EV market. Subaru will announce UK prices for the Uncharted compact SUV closer to its release, with sales starting in early 2026. The E-Outback will also be available in the UK market, revealed as the 'Trailseeker' at the New York International Auto Show, but pricing, charging time, and standard equipment details are yet to be announced.
