Subaru of America (Subaru Corp. NASDAQ: FUJHF) today revealed its newest model in the lineup and its second-ever all-electric SUV, the all-new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker, at the 2025 New York International Auto Show. The newest addition to the Subaru lineup introduces a new propulsion system. It has an up to estimated 150-kW charging speed and a standard NACS-compatible charge port. The 2026 Subaru Trailseeker will go on sale at retailers nationwide in 2026.
Subaru also showed a tweaked version of 2026 Subaru Solterra EV that appeared as a 2023 model (Read AutoInformed on: Subaru 2023 Solterra Electric SUV Starts at $46,220). The Solterra all-electric 5-seat SUV comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and an assortment of EyeSight® driver-assistance technologies. It adds an all-new, 14-inch Subaru Multimedia system with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility.
The new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker adapts a familiar silhouette onto a next-generation powertrain with an all-new design. Compared to the Subaru Solterra, the Trailseeker is more than 6 inches longer and nearly an inch taller, with additional room dedicated to the rear for increased cargo space. It also has standard raised roof rails, providing greater carrying capacity and flexibility.
Along with the 2026 Solterra, the Trailseeker debuts a new Subaru EV lighting “signature” with a six-star illuminated logo, redesigned headlamps, a new front bumper design, and newly designed 20- and 18-inch wheels. Around the back, a three-dimensional SUBARU logo and rear gate garnish bring a distinctive nighttime lighting presence.
The 2026 Solterra adds more powerful front and rear motors rated at 233 horsepower, an improvement compared to the outgoing version. For the first time, a Solterra XT trim level adds more powerful dual electric motors that combine for 338 horsepower and propel the Solterra XT from 0-60 mph in less than 5 seconds, according to Subaru.
The 2026 Solterra’s new high-capacity lithium-ion battery pack charges from 10% to 80% in less than 35 minutes at speeds up to approximately 150 kW. Standard NACS charging ports will allow Subaru EV owners to charge at more than 15,000 Tesla Superchargers across North America. [If DOGE dissidents to ransack them or take Elon’s chainsaw to them – AutoCrat] At home, the Solterra offers Level 1 or Level 2 charging compatibility.
