How Fast Is A Subaru Solterra? Acceleration and Top Speed Explained
The Subaru Solterra may be a capable entry-level electric vehicle with several cool features, but how fast is the EV? Subaru offers the Solterra as a crossover that isn't just powered by an electric drivetrain but comes with outstanding off-road abilities. Even as EVs continue to widen their stake in the automotive world, concerns about driving range and the availability of charging stations exist too. However, the Solterra shouldn't be described solely as the automaker's flagship electric vehicle but regarded as Subaru's most technologically-driven vehicle with zero emissions. Having collaborated with the seasoned automaker Toyota to develop the Solterra, so much is expected from Subaru's first attempt at developing an EV.
In a time when environmentally friendly vehicles have become a part of several automakers' lineups, the market has witnessed the release of crossovers and pickups possessing solid EV criteria like Hyundai's Ioniq 5 and Ford's F-150 Lightning. The Solterra is built on the same platform as Toyota's oddly named bZ4X, the Japanese automaker's pioneer all-electric vehicle. As expected with such collaborations, the Solterra shares design, body styling, and some other features with Toyota's EV. With the Solterra's arrival, Subaru joins other automakers in the march to achieve environmental sustainability.

The electric motors were placed in the rear and front of the EV.
