2024 SUBARU SOLTERRA LIMITED

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Subaru Solterra Limited, a joint venture with Toyota's bZ4X, presents a conservative yet capable EV option. The reviewer highlights its comfortable ride, well-damped suspension, and responsive handling, attributed to the low center of gravity from the battery pack. The interior boasts a large 12.3-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with desirable features like heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and wireless charging. Practicality is addressed with ample rear passenger room and a respectable 23.8 cubic feet of cargo space (expandable to 63.5 cubic feet with seats down). However, the primary criticism centers on its estimated 222-mile range, which the reviewer feels is insufficient for true competitiveness in the current EV market, potentially causing range anxiety for some buyers. Despite this, the Solterra Limited is positioned as a well-equipped, all-wheel-drive EV suitable for around-town driving and shorter road trips, with the Limited trim appearing to be the most commonly found on dealer lots.
