The 2025 Subaru Solterra electric SUV has a significant price reduction, now starting at $39,915, which is a decrease of $6,500 from last year. This aligns with the price adjustment strategy of its Toyota counterpart.
There's a new addition—the Onyx Edition, starting at $46,915. This trim features striking blacked-out accents, black trim on roof pillars, door frames, badges, spoilers, and 20-inch wheels. It offers two-tone exterior colors and a black interior, providing a unique, stylish option.
The Solterra stands out with all-wheel drive as a standard feature, distinguishing it from its sibling, the bZ4X, which has a slightly lower starting price of $38,465.
All trims—Premium, Limited, and Touring—benefit from substantial price reductions between $6,500 and $7,000. The EPA range remains unchanged at 227 miles for the Premium and 222 miles for the Limited, Touring, and Onyx Edition.
The Solterra and bZ4X have seen notable sales, with 10,215 units of the Solterra sold through October, slightly less than the bZ4X's 14,978 units. The recent price cuts may enhance their competitive stance against rivals like the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Volkswagen ID.4.
Subaru confirms that the 2025 models are expected at dealerships early in the new year.
In Summary: With a substantial price cut and the introduction of the stylish Onyx Edition, the 2025 Subaru Solterra makes a compelling case as an affordable all-wheel-drive electric SUV. These improvements are set to boost its competitiveness in the rapidly growing electric vehicle market.
 | I'm really excited about the price cut! This makes the Solterra an even more attractive option for those looking to go electric – great job, Subaru! |
 | Price cuts often mean corners are being cut elsewhere. I wonder what the long-term reliability of the Solterra will be. |
