The Subaru Solterra is the only EV in this manufacturer's lineup for 2024, but it offers so many perks you hardly need another option. Though Subaru is exploring other electric vehicles for its future offerings, it's put ample time and effort into making the Solterra a powerful and versatile choice. If you want to drive lighter on the earth, the Subaru Solterra will help you do just that.
The 2024 Subaru Solterra
The 2024 Subaru Solterra is a revolutionary addition to the world of electric vehicles. This is the first electric vehicle with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive: a feature that mounts all the drive system elements in a symmetrical line, including the horizontally opposed engine and rear differential. This effectively lowers the center of gravity for the Solterra and keeps it as close to the middle as possible. This improves weight balance and limits rolling and pitching to give you greater stability in any condition.
The Solterra boasts the greatest ground clearance in its class with 8.3 inches between your EV and the road. It comes standard with dual-function X-MODE that includes snow/mud and snow/dirt settings to optimize performance in tricky situations.
You won't have to wait long to take this beast out for a drive. The Solterra can charge from 10% to 80% in about an hour, depending on the conditions. Subaru improves its cold-weather charging for the 2024 model so you'll suffer less from climate changes.
The Solterra enhances safety with standard EyeSight Driver Assistance Technology that monitors traffic movement and lane position, providing the driver with:
- Adaptive cruise control.
- Lane departure warning.
- Pre-collision braking.
- Automatic emergency steering.
- Pre-collision throttle management.
2024 Solterra Premium
The Solterra Premium is the base-level trim for this EV, but that doesn't mean an underwhelming ride. This trim offers the best fuel economy and range of all Solterra trims with 94/114 MPGe hwy/city and a range of 227 miles. The Premium is well-equipped with everything you need for an impressive adventure including a DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System to help you stay focused on the road.
The interior features six-way manually adjustable heated front seats and cloth upholstery. The Premium comes standard with an 8-inch Subaru multimedia screen and a six-speaker sound system. You'll have plenty of room in the spacious interior for passengers and cargo alike with 95.7 cubic feet of passenger volume and 23.8 cubic feet of cargo volume. The cargo volume increases to 63.5 cubic feet with the seats folded down. All trims include 60/40-split flat-folding seatbacks in the second row.
The Premium rolls on 18 x 7.5-inch aluminum alloy wheels with all-season tires. Heated exterior mirrors and a windshield wiper de-icer help you tackle the elements, making this Solterra extremely well-equipped for your adventures.
2024 Solterra Limited
The Solterra Limited and above deliver up to 93/111 MPGe and a 222-mile range. The slight decrease in efficiency is likely due to the increased curb weight, which goes from 4,354 pounds for the Premium to 4,431 pounds for the Limited. This trim features 20 x 7.5-inch aluminum alloy wheels with all-season tires. LED fog lights illuminate the road ahead, and the heated exterior mirrors get an upgrade to a power-folding design with integrated turn signals and entry illumination.
The Limited adds several convenient features, including Advanced Driver Parking Assistance, a digital key, and a power rear gate with a height memory function and automatic close. The rearview mirror comes equipped with HomeLink to provide an integrated garage door opener. A Qi wireless smartphone charging pad keeps your devices juiced up with ease.
At the Limited trim and above, you'll enjoy power-adjustable heated front seats and heated second-row outboard seats with StarTex upholstery. A heated steering wheel comes standard as well for cozy cold-weather trips. You'll enjoy a sizable 12.3-inch multimedia navigation screen as well as a Harman Kardon premium audio system. A panoramic view monitor 360-degree camera system comes standard so you can get a clear view of everything around you.
2024 Solterra Touring
The Touring maintains the same efficiency and range as the Limited, but its curb weight increases slightly to 4,486 pounds. The front seats in the Touring are ventilated and heated for year-round comfort. The Touring comes standard with a panoramic glass roof with a power sunshade to provide a more spacious and luxurious feel inside the cabin. The glass roof does decrease headroom by 0.2 inches in the front and 0.9 inches in the back, taking passenger volume down to 94.4 cubic feet.
The Touring includes a digital rearview mirror with HomeLink for greater integration between your car and home. You'll also enjoy aesthetic upgrades at this trim like interior accent lighting and a retractable cargo cover. The Touring is available with both mono- and two-tone exterior paint.
The Benefits of a Subaru EV
If you're considering an electric vehicle for the first time, you'll find this type of car has a lot to love. The Subaru Solterra has zero emissions so you can live lightly on the earth. In some states, you can use the high-occupancy vehicle lane while driving an EV, which enhances your everyday driving experience further.
Going electric comes with some money-saving perks as well. A full charge for the Solterra costs just $9 to $10, which is far less than a tank of gas. Maintenance and care are cheaper for an electric vehicle, as its components suffer less from wear and tear. You may have the opportunity to take advantage of tax credits or financial incentive programs depending on your location. If you lease through Subaru Motors Finance, your 2024 Solterra is eligible for a $7,500 incentive.
