The Subaru Electric SUV Experience
Transitioning to an electric vehicle shouldn’t mean sacrificing the capability you need for weekend trips or daily commuting around Newnan and Atlanta. The Subaru Solterra was engineered specifically to ensure that adopting an EV lifestyle doesn’t limit your adventures.

X-MODE capability
For unpaved roads and unpredictable Georgia weather, Dual-Function X-MODE with Grip Control helps you easily navigate steep inclines, slick surfaces, and uneven terrain.
Ground Clearance
With 8.3 inches of ground clearance, the Solterra sits higher than many competitors in its class, ensuring you can clear obstacles confidently whether you’re navigating a rugged trail or a steep driveway.
