Auto123 gets in a first drive of the 2024 Subaru Solterra, mildly updated and finally ready, it seems, to compete on the compact EV segment.
Victoria, BC – The changes coming to Subaru’s first all-electric model for 2024 were first announced back in April. This trip to the left coast was not, then, about learning about those changes. It was about applying in real-world driving. And for Subaru, that real-world driving included an off-road segment designed to show that all-electric or not, this Solterra, made in collaboration with Toyota and a very close cousin of the Japanese giant’s bZ4X, is a Subaru through and through.

The slow-selling Elemental Red colour option has been jettisoned, replaced by a comely Smoked Carbon/Black combo.
The interior is also relatively intact this year, with the exception of that steering wheel of course. And yes, it’s an improvement. Visibility is noticeably better, plus it looks nice and feels nice to the touch. What’s not to like here?
