The Subaru Solterra starts at an MSRP of $44,995 (+$1,225 DST) and offers up to 228 miles of EPA Combined range, using a 72.8-kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery.

The model is not eligible for the $7,500 federal tax credit, under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, because it's imported from outside of North America. However, the incentive might be factored in leasing.
