What Canadian shoppers ask

The questions Solterra shoppers bring to the showroom.

Drawn from 364 comments on MotorMouth's Solterra videos posted since 2023 on the MotorMouth YouTube channel. Question themes sit apart from verified vehicle facts and help prepare a more useful test drive.

01

Is the Solterra right for me as an EV?

Electric power is the biggest theme, raised in 120 comments. Subaru Canada describes a substantially upgraded 2026 Solterra, with a larger battery, a more powerful all-wheel-drive system, faster charging and a NACS port. Every Solterra has dual motors and all-wheel drive. A Canadian owner of the 2026 model wrote: "We have the new 2026 Solterra and it’s great."

Take this to your test drive

Map your longest regular trip, including winter driving, and check public and home charging options before you buy.

02

What does it cost?

Price and value come up in 75 comments. Subaru Canada prices the 2026 Solterra AWD at $52,495 MSRP, $4,000 less than the 2024 model. The Luxury Package adds $3,000 and the Technology Package $6,000.

Take this to your test drive

Ask for the all-in price with freight and fees, ask what each package adds, and confirm which federal and provincial EV incentives apply.

03

How far will it go?

Subaru Canada estimates up to 446 km (277 mi) of range for the 2026 Solterra, based on NRCan guidelines in ideal conditions, more than 25 percent more than the outgoing model.

Take this to your test drive

Ask the dealer how battery preconditioning and the climate settings work, and plan your winter trips with room to spare.

04

How fast does it charge?

The 2026 Solterra has a NACS port for access to Tesla Superchargers and new battery preconditioning that keeps the battery at a good charging temperature, effective down to minus 10 degrees Celsius. Subaru Canada lists DC fast charging at about 150 kW, about 30 minutes from 10 to 80 percent in ideal conditions, and an 11 kW onboard charger. One owner chose it partly for the port: "So glad to see the adoption of the NACS port."

Take this to your test drive

Ask whether an adapter or a home charger is included, and test a fast charger near your home if you can.

05

What changed in the styling?

Styling comes up in 72 comments. For 2026 the Solterra has a new lighting signature with an illuminated six-star logo, redesigned headlamps, a new front bumper, newly designed 18- and 20-inch wheels, body-colour wheel arch mouldings on certain colours and available two-tone paint. One viewer who saw it at the New York show wrote: "The updated 2026 Solterra also looks great"

Take this to your test drive

Compare the colours and wheel choices in daylight, and look at the 18-inch and 20-inch wheels side by side.

06

Is it good in winter?

All-wheel drive and winter driving come up in 35 comments. Every 2026 Solterra has Symmetrical Full-Time AWD with X-MODE Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud modes, Grip Control and Downhill Assist Control, and 210 mm (8.3 in) of ground clearance. One viewer recommended it for winter: "Standard All Wheel Drive would be great in the winters."

Take this to your test drive

Budget for winter tires, and ask the dealer to show you the preconditioning settings.

07

How powerful is it?

Power comes up in 30 comments. The 2026 Solterra has 338 combined hp from its front and rear motors, 57 percent more than the 2024 Solterra AWD, and Subaru Canada lists 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in under 5 seconds. A Canadian buyer of the 2026 model wrote: "So much power (338 hp) and fun to drive"

Take this to your test drive

Try the regenerative braking settings in traffic, and feel the acceleration on a safe on-ramp.

08

What tech comes with it?

Interior and tech come up in 32 comments. Every 2026 Solterra has a 14-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless 15W charging for the driver and front passenger, rear high-power USB-C ports and EyeSight with Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist and Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control.
