The Solterra is a fully electric SUV that Subaru redesigned around the two things EV shoppers ask about first: range and charging speed. It now delivers up to 288 miles of range and goes from 10% to 80% in roughly 28 minutes on a fast charger. Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive comes on every one, which is still rare in this segment. Our new Solterra inventory sits alongside the rest of our new Subaru lineup in Fremont.
Subaru rebuilt the Solterra from the ground up rather than carrying the previous version forward, and the changes show up in the powertrain, the charging system, and the cabin technology. The full specification breakdown lives on our Solterra model page, but these are the points worth knowing before you drive one.
Bay Area commuting is the exact use case this SUV was engineered for. A 288-mile range covers a week of driving between Hayward and the Peninsula for most people before a charge is needed, and the 28-minute fast-charge window fits a lunch break rather than an afternoon. Drivers commuting from Milpitas along 880 and 680 get the traction advantage of Symmetrical AWD in wet winter conditions, while the 8.3 inches of ground clearance handles Sierra trips and unpaved trailheads. Families in Union City tend to weigh the standard safety content just as heavily.
We stock the full current Subaru lineup, including the Trailseeker and Uncharted EVs alongside the Solterra, so you can compare all three electric models on one lot. Our customers get free first-year maintenance and a personalized post-delivery training session with our Customer Relations Manager, which matters more on an EV than on a gas model. You can start the paperwork through our financing application before you arrive. We are also a Certified Subaru Eco-Friendly Retailer, a factory-level certification for sustainable dealership operations. Our factory-trained technicians handle Solterra service at our Fremont service center, with a free multi-point inspection on every visit and shuttle service available.
