The 2023 Subaru Solterra is an all-new and all-electric SUV roughly the size of a Subaru Forester. Co-developed alongside the 2022 Toyota bZ4X, the teams from Subaru and Toyota were allowed to make small changes to tailor each vehicle to their prospective customers and better align with each company’s identity. Toyota chose to make a front-wheel-drive bZ4X to keep the price lower and increase its potential range. Meanwhile, Subaru leaned into its outdoorsy image, made all-wheel drive (AWD) standard on the Solterra and added a few more premium features. The result is a more off-road-capable electric SUV, albeit at a slightly higher price.
