The 2026 Subaru Solterra in a Nutshell
Subaru’s first foray into the EV market is a result of a partnership with Toyota. The Solterra has been around since mid-2022 for the 2023 model year, and the same goes for its twin, the crossover formerly known as the bZ4X. Both EVs have been updated for 2026, and while Toyota simplified its name to just bZ, Subaru stuck with Solterra.
The facelift brings with it a fresher look with its redesigned front end, along with hardware changes to boost range. The 2026 Solterra is available in five trims with two powertrain choices. Prices range from $38,495 to $45,885.

2026 Subaru Solterra Lease Deals for November
For November, there is a special lease offer for the 2026 Solterra Premium available on Subaru’s official website. The clincher here is that it starts at below $400 per month. The deal is $339 per month for 36 months, with a due-at-sign payment of $2,839. Offer is valid until December 1, 2025, and it’s $0.15 for every mile beyond 10,000 miles (annual).
And for those looking to lease the Solterra for less, there is a second option. There is also a lease special for the 2025 model for $299 for 36 months. Mind you, it still has the older look with smaller batteries. Same terms and conditions apply.

2026 Subaru Solterra Highlights
The most important update made to the Solterra is the larger battery pack. It’s increased to 74.7kWh, giving a range improvement of about 25 percent. The range depends on the trim chosen, but all benefit from the larger batteries nonetheless.
Like the bZ, the Solterra gets more powerful motors for the 2026 model year. Power rises to 233 hp for the single-motor versions, and climbs to 338 hp for the dual-motor all-wheel drive models.
Solterra trim levels consist of Premium, Limited, Limited XT, Touring XT, and Touring XT Leather. Unlike its Toyota counterpart, the Solterra is all-wheel drive only, not that we’re complaining.

Final Thoughts
Why choose the Solterra over the bZ? Well, the Subaru is a little cheaper to lease than the Toyota, plus you get the benefit of having all-wheel drive as standard. The Solterra also has different suspension tuning from the bZ, with the Subaru version having a more handling-oriented tune. The two may be twins, but the Subaru does offer slightly better value.
