WATT MATTERS?

The Solterra is Subaru's attempt to translate its all-weather SUV identity into battery-electric form. Familiar brand values matter here as much as the powertrain.

THE BASICS

Australian MY27 AWD and AWD Touring grades share a 74.7 kWh battery. Their WLTP electric ranges are 566 km and 517 km. Touring adds front-seat ventilation, upgraded audio, parking assistance and a panoramic roof, with a shorter range claim.

THE WATTCAR TAKE

Subaru loyalists may find the Solterra an approachable step into electric motoring. It must still compete on range, efficiency and value against rivals with longer EV experience.
