Powertrain - Subaru Dealership near Vancouver, WA
An upgraded 74.7-kWh lithium-ion battery underpins the 2026 model, increasing estimated range to more than 285 miles—over 25 percent more than prior Solterra EV models. Battery preconditioning now helps maintain optimal charging temperature when you navigate to a charger or activate the feature, supporting consistent performance in cold weather. When it is time to plug in, 10 to 80 percent comes in less than 35 minutes at speeds up to approximately 150 kW, and the standard North American Charging Standard port opens access to more than 15,000 Tesla Superchargers across North America. At home, Level 1 or Level 2 charging offers easy overnight replenishment. Power delivery also steps up: more powerful front and rear motors make 233 horsepower, while the Solterra XT trim adds dual motors combining for 338 horsepower and a projected 0 to 60 mph in under five seconds. The improved controller and independent motor outputs further refine traction and balance under acceleration, creating a confident, natural feel whether merging, passing, or threading a winding two-lane. All told, the 2026 Subaru Solterra translates sophisticated EV engineering into fuss-free, everyday punch and long-range convenience.
Safety - 2026 Subaru Solterra dealer
Safety leadership remains central to this all-electric SUV. Every 2026 Subaru Solterra features a comprehensive suite of EyeSight® driver-assist technologies, including Pre-Collision Braking, Front Cross Traffic Alert, Blind Spot Monitors, Lane Departure Alert, a panoramic view monitor, Emergency Stop Assist, Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist, and Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control. These systems work in concert to support awareness and reduce fatigue, whether you are creeping through congestion or setting the cruise for a long interstate stretch.
