Subaru makes fully electric cars, and its US lineup now extends beyond the Solterra. Subaru’s current model pages feature the 2027 Solterra, 2027 Uncharted and 2027 Trailseeker, while the three-row Getaway is listed as an upcoming 2028 model.
For buyers, the useful comparison is the exact model and trim: the maximum range, drivetrain and passenger layout are not the same across the family. Do not assume that every electric Subaru has standard all-wheel drive or that the highest range and highest power figures describe the same version.
This guide covers Subaru’s US-market information checked on 28 October 2026. It compares published specifications and practical buying considerations rather than reporting a TechieWall road test.
Subaru electric cars at a glance
| US model | Status on current Subaru pages | Published range headline | Main reason to compare it |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 Solterra | Current model page with inventory search | Up to 288 miles | Standard AWD and an established place in Subaru’s EV range. |
| 2027 Uncharted | Current model page with inventory search | Up to 308 miles | The highest advertised maximum range among these three current model pages; AWD is available. |
| 2027 Trailseeker | Current model page with inventory search | Up to 281 miles | Standard AWD, 375 horsepower and 8.5 inches of ground clearance. |
| 2028 Getaway | Announced upcoming model; MSRP not yet available | Around 300 miles in announced information | Three rows with seating for up to seven, depending on configuration. |
Start with Subaru’s official electric-vehicle lineup, then open the exact model-year and trim specification. A website listing and an inventory-search button do not guarantee a particular configuration is available at your nearest retailer.
Solterra: a standard-AWD starting point
The current 2027 Solterra page lists standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, up to 288 miles of range and a manufacturer 10% to 80% fast-charging claim of about 28 minutes. Subaru also lists 8.3 inches of ground clearance and a 14-inch touchscreen.
Solterra is a sensible starting point if you want to compare an AWD Subaru EV without first moving toward the performance emphasis of Trailseeker or the fastback shape of Uncharted. Check the exact trim’s range and equipment, then compare the cabin with the people and luggage you normally carry.
Used Solterra listings need a separate comparison. The current model’s charging and range claims should not be assigned to an earlier car simply because it carries the same badge. Read that model year’s documentation and check software, service history and any applicable recalls.
Uncharted: compare range and drivetrain carefully
Subaru’s 2027 Uncharted page advertises up to 308 miles of range, available Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and up to 338 horsepower. It describes a fastback design and lists 8.2 inches of ground clearance.
The word available matters. Select the drivetrain you want before comparing prices or range. The maximum range and maximum horsepower headlines can belong to different configurations, so putting both into a single comparison row without a trim name can mislead.
If your priority is commuting distance between charges, compare the version carrying the 308-mile headline with the exact AWD alternative. If your priority is bad-weather traction, start with the AWD configuration and then assess its range, tyre specification and price.
Trailseeker: more power and ground clearance
The 2027 Trailseeker has standard dual motors, 375 horsepower and standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. Subaru lists up to 281 miles of range, 8.5 inches of ground clearance and a conditional 10% to 80% DC charging time of about 28 minutes.
Its case is strongest when you value that combination of power and clearance. Compare seat comfort, luggage access and the routes you actually use before deciding that the additional capability is worth prioritising over maximum range.
AWD and ground clearance do not remove the need for appropriate tyres or good route planning. If you expect to drive in winter, include reduced range and battery preparation in the decision. Our EV winter-range guide explains the planning factors.
Getaway: the upcoming three-row option
Subaru’s current US website identifies the Getaway as a 2028 model. It is an announced three-row EV with seating for up to seven, depending on configuration. Subaru says MSRP is not yet available.
The announced information describes standard AWD, around 300 miles of range and a fast-charging claim of as little as 30 minutes from 10% to 80% under the stated conditions. Treat these as future-model information until the final trim specifications, pricing and delivery arrangements for your order are confirmed.
Subaru’s current US vehicle listing gives a spring 2027 arrival plan. A planned launch date is not a guaranteed delivery date. If you need a vehicle immediately, compare cars that a retailer can actually supply.
For a large family, verify the seating configuration before judging capacity. A model that offers up to seven seats can also have six-seat versions. Check third-row access, space with the seats occupied and the luggage you would carry on a family trip.
How do Subaru EVs charge?
There are two main routines to plan: AC charging where you regularly park, and DC fast charging on longer journeys. A home setup can make daily ownership convenient, while public charging access determines how well the car suits trips beyond its comfortable real-world range.
Subaru’s current lineup information highlights NACS compatibility and access to compatible Tesla Superchargers. That expands the available charging options, but connector shape alone does not establish that every station will work with every model. Check the vehicle and station in the supported charging app before travelling.
The 28-minute claims on the current Solterra, Uncharted and Trailseeker pages refer to a 10% to 80% DC session under specified conditions. They do not describe an empty-to-full charge, and they are not a promise at every Tesla or other public charger.
At home, choose the charging equipment only after confirming the exact vehicle’s inlet, AC charging capability and included adapters. A qualified installer should assess the property’s electrical capacity. Our Level 1 versus Level 2 guide and connector comparison explain the wider choices.
Which electric Subaru should you shortlist?
| Your main requirement | First comparison to make | What still needs checking |
|---|---|---|
| An AWD everyday EV | Solterra against an AWD Uncharted configuration | Exact-trim range, seat comfort, equipment and final price. |
| The longest advertised range in this comparison | The Uncharted configuration carrying the maximum-range figure | Whether its drivetrain and equipment meet your requirements. |
| Power and additional ground clearance | Trailseeker | Tyres, road suitability, range and the practical value of its capability. |
| Three rows | The announced Getaway | Final pricing, seating layout, launch timing and actual retailer delivery plans. |
Do a charging check before choosing any of them. Identify a normal charging location, one reliable backup and suitable stops on your longest regular route. A vehicle with a lower brochure range can be easier to live with if its charging arrangements suit your routine.
For trip planning, use our EV road-trip guide. For ownership costs, compare a model-specific insurance quote and the electricity tariff you will actually pay.
What to check before buying new or used
Use a complete quote. Compare the vehicle, delivery charges, taxes, retailer fees and any charging installation you need. Keep temporary offers separate from the vehicle’s normal price, and verify any incentive through its provider.
Confirm the model year. Range, charging equipment and features can change substantially while the name remains the same. Read the individual vehicle’s specification rather than a generic search-result snippet.
For a used car, inspect condition and records. Check battery health where a report is available, charging operation, tyre wear, accident history, recall completion and the remaining warranty terms. Our battery-health guide and EV warranty guide explain those checks.
Frequently asked questions
Does Subaru make an electric car?
Yes. Subaru’s current US electric family includes Solterra, Uncharted and Trailseeker, with the Getaway announced as an upcoming three-row model.
Are Subaru electric cars the same as Subaru hybrids?
No. A fully electric vehicle runs on electricity stored in its rechargeable battery. A conventional hybrid also has a fuel-burning engine. Check whether the listing describes a battery-electric vehicle or a hybrid before comparing running costs and charging needs.
Which Subaru electric car has the most range?
Among the three current US model pages compared here, Uncharted has the highest published maximum at 308 miles. Solterra is listed at up to 288 miles and Trailseeker at up to 281 miles. Compare the exact trims and remember that real range changes with use and weather.
Do all Subaru EVs have standard AWD?
Do not assume that across the family. Subaru describes AWD as available on Uncharted, while the current Solterra and Trailseeker pages list it as standard. Verify the drivetrain on the specific vehicle.
Can an electric Subaru use Tesla Superchargers?
The current lineup highlights access to compatible Tesla Superchargers through NACS. Check support for your model year, the individual station and any required adapter. Do not apply a current-model claim automatically to an older used Subaru.
Can I buy the Getaway now?
Subaru presents it as an upcoming 2028 model, with a spring 2027 arrival plan in its current US listing and no MSRP published on the model page. Ask a retailer about the current ordering process and a written delivery estimate.
US manufacturer pages checked on 28 October 2026. Model-year labels, availability, announced specifications and charging access can change; verify the configuration offered locally.
