Nice review, one of the better ones for sure. I really appreciated the some of the details that other reviewers don''t do such as the charge curve and listing the amount of time to go from 10-80%. You have a bright future in reviews.
Hooooola, Lorena. We've owned two Subarus, and really enjoyed them. Indeed I had hoped that Subaru would bring its Stella and R1e EVs to market nearly 20 years ago but… alas, they dropped them entirely. I've got a small diecast model of the R1e! The Solterra is a competitive SUV, and I might have been tempted to buy one out of brand loyalty, except… it simply isn't as nice as our Ioniq 5, inside and out. That center console and screen seem like a bulky aftermarket addition that was shoehorned in, in my-not-so-humble option. The range is pretty minimal, and one feature I simply must have now in my EVs is one-pedal driving. I doubt most consumers would opt for a Solterra, unless… they are long time Subaru owners in the Rocky Mountain region and have grown truly concerned about the climate crisis and their own carbon footprint. Otherwise, they'll go for an Outback, despite its tailpipe.
some of these car makers are still slapping a battery on top of an Ice vehicle . there is no reason for any EV to have all that going on under the hood .
We leased this (base model) as our alternate car. $0 down + $300/month. Noticed that when ICE and the EV are both available, every driver in the house is choosing the EV over the ICE. Wasn’t expecting that but facts are facts.
Great review! It's really helpful to see actual cargo loaded up in the car!
Thank you for the great review, I love the ground clearance!
Thanks for a very informative review but a review on the new Tesla Model 3+ would be very appreciated. From Ottawa 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

Always making informative videos. When are you going to make a video for BYD EVs They arrived in Mexico already.
Thank you. Yes I would love too, I'd have to find a connection with them.
Thanks! Not great range. I wonder if car limits DCFC on road trips.
Looking forward to seeing you review the Chevrolet Equinox EV

Getting ready to buy this EV Offroader! I can't wait to see how far it will go up the mesa! Plenty of dirt roads round my way.
Did you end up getting the Solterra?
Thought you were in an accident by the thumbnail 😂
Haha no 😆
you really look like Shina Nova

Wow! The fuel cost for my outback would have been 21.50 Our Solterra would have been 7.25. Why didn’t you critique the outrageous EV Go ripoff?
Hate EVs, I'll stick with ICE
Personal option / decision.
We leased this (base model) as our alternate car. $0 down + $300/month.
Noticed that when ICE and the EV are both available, every driver in the house is choosing the EV over the ICE.
Wasn’t expecting that but facts are facts.
Which ones have you driven?
