The 2024 Subaru Solterra may be late to the fully electric vehicle (EV) game, but it's looking to make a strong first impression, as evidenced by the Japanese brand's move to significantly reduce its Australia pricing before first deliveries even began. And frankly, it has to be competitive in the mid-size SUV segment, which takes no prisoners.
A twin under the skin with the new Toyota bZ4X, the Solterra goes its own way with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive-only line-up, in keeping Subaru's AWD signature. That said, two grades are available, with the entry-level variant eponymous, while the flagship is dubbed Touring.
In this expert review, CarsGuide Contributing Journalist Emily Agar and her family of three spend a week living with the Solterra AWD to find out not only how well it measures up as an EV, but also how effective it is as a car for families. Ultimately, it has to succeed at both.
