(New) Subaru Solterra Reviews
The refresh looks so much better especially when the body cladded is the same color as the rest of the vehicle.
Seems competitive
1. Similar charging speed as a Model Y
2. Similar-ish real world range as a Model Y
3. Similar performance as a Model Y
4. 2 inch more ground clearance should make it al bit more usable off road
Should sell well to loyal Subaru customers.
How can't other manufacturers seem to figure out how to package their vehicles so they have a frunk / usable frunk?
Edit:
Not a fan of a steering wheel that's not round.

Agree on the frunk. To my wife and I the frunk is a huge bonus in an EV, we would have a hard time choosing one that doesn't have a frunk.
I also agree on the round steering wheel. The trend towards square wheels is annoying IMO

price and dealership. Subaru engineered the a lot of the EV logic of the AWD system.
in an interview with an engineer at Toyota Japan, he admitted this AWD system is better than the one they developed for the Land Cruiser for off roading.
I wouldn’t be surprised with Toyota launching an EV Land Cruiser in the future.
