Subaru is enhancing its electric vehicle presence in Europe, officially announcing plans to launch three new battery-electric crossovers by 2026. Created in cooperation with Toyota, this trio incorporates familiar technology alongside Subaru’s unique styling, known for its polarizing aesthetics. The lineup includes the Uncharted, the revamped Solterra, and the E-Outback, which corresponds to Europe’s version of the Trailseeker.
These new models will essentially triple Subaru’s electric vehicle offerings in the region, which has thus far only included the Solterra. All three vehicles are based on the e-Subaru Global Platform, which is Subaru's version of Toyota’s e-TNGA electric architecture.
The Subaru Uncharted
At the forefront is the Uncharted, Subaru's version of the Toyota C-HR+. This crossover features a distinctive front end that adapts elements from the updated Solterra, including its headlight design and sculpted bumper, complemented by rugged alloy wheels. Inside, the Uncharted has a squared steering wheel and different interior trims, while sharing features such as a 14-inch infotainment screen and dual wireless charging stations with its Toyota counterpart.
Customers can select from front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive configurations, both of which offer commendable performance. Power reaches up to 338 hp (252 kW / 344 PS), with the base variant equipped with a 57.7 kWh battery providing a range of 276 miles (444 km). A larger 77 kWh battery extends the range to 363 miles (584 km) for FWD models and 292 miles (470 km) for AWD models.

The Solterra Returns, More Dynamic and Enhanced
Next in the electric lineup is the Solterra, returning with updated design, advanced technology, and enhanced architecture. The dual electric motors now produce 338 hp (252 kW / 343 PS), a significant increase of 123 hp (92 kW) from the original model launched in 2022. Additionally, a larger 73.1 kWh battery offers a range exceeding 310 miles (500 km) between charges.
Styling modifications focus on the front, featuring slimmer LEDs and a refined bumper design. The EU-spec Solterra was displayed with glossy black fenders, leaving uncertainty whether higher trims will have the body-colored finish seen in the North American version. The electric vehicle also includes a new 14-inch infotainment display and upgraded ADAS.
Introducing the E-Outback: Subaru’s Largest EV So Far
Finally, the Subaru E-Outback serves as the European equivalent of the Subaru Trailseeker and the Toyota bZ Woodland. It is larger and offers more space than the Solterra, with a trunk capable of accommodating four suitcases. Subaru has released one image of the Trailseeker, leading to assumptions that the E-Outback will look similar, except for the amber indicators.
Performance is significantly enhanced here. The E-Outback features a dual-motor setup delivering 377 hp (280 kW / 380 PS) and is paired with a 74.7 kWh battery providing a range of 279 miles (447 km). Built for adventure, it includes Subaru’s Symmetrical AWD, X-Mode terrain management, and 210 mm (8.3 inches) of ground clearance. It also matches the Solterra’s towing capacity at 1,500 kg (3,307 pounds).
Rollout Schedule
The updated Subaru Solterra will be the first to arrive at European dealerships by the end of 2025. The Uncharted and E-Outback will subsequently launch in early 2026. Subaru plans to reveal pricing details as the launch dates for each model approach.
The Subaru Trailseeker will be marketed in Europe as the E-Outback.
