Good value! First car I’ve ever leased at $230 a month for 3 years. Range is 250 miles per charge. Nice power to get out in traffic. I’m quite impressed so far with the vehicle. Quirky interior but I like it.

In Love Again

This car is a joy to ride. Powerful, responsive, comfortable, yum. I am not in love with the look of the car. But god i love driving it. It costs with a very high electric company tariff about 1.40 /gal equiv. I offset that cost with solar panels. No waiting at long lines for gas, just plug into 240 or faster charge. faster does it in overnight with an empty tank. Slow in about 24 hrs. SO easy. Driving isn't the chore it once was. i liked my hybrid, but this is so far more advanced. I drive listening to my cell phone news and music over the car radio. It even steers on highway turns but tells you to put yr hands back on the wheel if you leave the helm. The steering is nice in tight situations, a friend on board. Mirror warnings of people and cars nearby. Looking forward to 4 wd in snow! Buy it. I got mine used with 6000 miles for 25000. Fantastic!

I ❤️ my car. I can get it to be 290 instead of 228. The wheel is great to handle and it is a smooth ride.

Test drove the Soltera Limited. No experience with electric vehicles. Seemed very quick at the start. Drove well for such a heavy car, you could really feel the weight. The steering wheel was pretty small dia wise. Roof felt low. Side window was short. Rear hatch seemed real long/deep, not sure how I feel about that. Rear seat floor didn't have the well you expect in floors, feels like you're stepping up into the cabin. Not at all impressed with the interior. I should state that I have a 2020 Forester touring with the brown leather trim. I would like something like that in an EV. Very cool self-park, aerial view, wireless phone charge. Think I'll wait for the next iteration. There may be some bugs to work out, the dealer had to postpone my test drive for some obscure reason. I went online to "Build my own" Soltera. To build your own, you pick Premium, Limited, or Touring. unless you want an ashtray or weather tek floor mats you can't build your own.

Almost a good Car

The Solterra would be a great car if the range was anywhere close to what is advertised and or promised by Subaru... in reality the range is only averaging about 60 to 70 percent of the 220 miles for a full charge... the range estimates are pure fabrications and Subaru knows it... have been a Subaru owner for well over 40 years and will never buy another due to the deceptions and dealer lies and excuses... !!!
