Why Should the 2023 Subaru Solterra Be Your First Electric SUV?

Subaru’s first-ever fully electric vehicle, the new Solterra, is a compact crossover with a bold, geometric style. While its electric engine is its central attribute, it also features an open, comfortable cabin full of high-tech features that keep you and your passengers protected and entertained. If you’re looking for a new Solterra in the North Texas area, we’re happy to help you at Huffines Subaru Corinth in Corinth, Texas. To learn more about the Solterra’s modern interior, read on.

What’s Special About the Solterra?

The 2023 Solterra will be Subaru’s first electric vehicle in the United States. The foreign-produced Subaru Solterra is already available in Europe and other areas, but it will be released in the United States in 2022 as a 2023 model. Subaru teamed up with Toyota to develop this electric vehicle, which draws inspiration from both Subaru and Toyota’s functional, athletic lineups. A zero-emission vehicle, this exciting new model is an excellent option for drivers looking for an alternative fuel crossover with the latest technology.

Seating

The Solterra’s three trim levels – Premium, Limited, and Touring – all seat five people in gray upholstery. While most electric vehicles sit high up to accommodate their large engines, the Solterra makes up for it with high ceilings that allow tall passengers to ride comfortably. Passengers might also enjoy the Solterra’s ample legroom, supportive seats, and soft materials.

Limited and Touring trims have StarTex trim on the upholstery, heated front seats, and a power driver’s seat with adjustable settings. Touring models have ventilated front seats and lit trim around the interior. They also feature a glass roof that brings natural light and an expansive feel to the cabin.

Cargo Space

While it’s a small SUV, the Solterra offers plenty of room for cargo, whether you’re hauling around camping gear or shopping bags. The Solterra offers 27.7 cubic feet of storage space for cargo in the back of the vehicle. You can also fold down the rear seats to bring the capacity up to 30 cubic feet, beating the capacity of similar vehicles. The rear gate opens as wide as 41 inches, so you can easily load and unload large cargo like bicycles, sports equipment, furniture, or luggage.

The vehicle has a low cargo floor, and you can opt for an available Power Rear Gate to simplify maneuvering your items in and out. The Solterra is also full of clever storage compartments throughout, and the center console features a spacious storage bucket. The doors come with bins, and an adaptable floor allows you to slide them open to reveal extra ground space.

Entertainment

The Solterra features a futuristic entertainment panel with a luxuriously large screen, a glossy console, and intuitive controls. The panel’s centerpiece is the vehicle’s large 12.3-inch touch screen that comes standard on Limited and Touring trims. The screen offers colorful, clear graphics for entertainment, navigation, and information. Its sophisticated system is one of Subaru’s most comprehensive infotainment options, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to keep you connected. The Limited and Touring trims also have wireless charging for your phone and a Harman Kardon stereo system with crisp audio.

Drivers can take full advantage of the Solterra’s innovative digital interface by downloading the Solterra Connect app. The app connects you with a voice assistant using cloud technology that can respond to your requests. Features like climate control, remote start, and remote locking are available within the app. Solterra Connect also features a detailed internal navigation system highlighting nearby charge stations, so you never run out of energy on the road.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

With the Solterra, the technology doesn’t end with the entertainment system. All Solterra models feature innovative safety features so you can feel confident and in control while driving. Subaru’s first-ever surround-view camera system is available on Limited and Touring models, offering 360 degrees of visibility when backing up or parking. A new feature called Safe Exit Assist alerts you and your passengers if they’re opening their door into oncoming traffic to help everyone exit the vehicle clearly and safely.

The Solterra includes other safety tech features like Lane Change Assist, which helps protect you from collisions when moving from one lane to another, and a Blind Spot Monitor, which scans your blind spots on either side for vehicles you can’t see. A Rear Cross-Traffic Alert helps keep you aware of your surroundings, and a Parking Support Brake employs the brakes if the vehicle detects anything in your way while you’re reversing.
