2024 Subaru Solterra Competitive Comparisons

Shopping for a new EV? You have more options than ever. However, the 2024 Subaru Solterra has several advantages over the competition. Two common competitors include the Volkswagen ID.4 and the Hyundai Ioniq 5. While both EVs have plenty of positive attributes, they can't keep up with the value, performance, and technology that the 2024 Subaru Solterra offers. Here's an in-depth look.

How the 2024 Subaru Solterra Compares

Compared to the 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5, the standard 2024 Subaru Solterra offers an important horsepower bump, seven miles of additional range, more ground clearance, and the confidence of all-wheel drive. So, it's better prepared when the going gets rough. Even in traffic, the Solterra excels, thanks to standard Subaru EyeSight® driver assistance systems not found on the Hyundai Ioniq 5.

The 2024 Subaru Solterra offers state-of-the-art technology and comfortable amenities that aren't even available on the Volkswagen ID.4, like heated rear seats and a Panoramic View Monitor. The Subaru EV also comes with better performance and range overall than the VW, alongside Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for even more confidence behind the wheel.

Solterra Features & Performance

Subaru's Impressive All-Wheel Drive

One of the big selling points for many Reno and Gardnerville drivers has always been Subaru's unmatched all-wheel drive. The symmetrical all-wheel drive from Subaru provides excellent performance in off-road conditions and poor weather.

Using a pair of electric motors attached to the axles, the Solterra also delivers direct power to the wheels faster than is possible with a gas engine. Consequently, the Solterra has excellent takeoff and acceleration. It is also more responsive to the driver's demands of the vehicle. If you need to merge with traffic going up a ramp to the highway, for example, the Solterra will respond almost immediately when you get on the accelerator pedal.

A Roomy SUV

Subaru built the Solterra as a two-row SUV with seating for up to five occupants. The design provides lots of legroom, making the Solterra wonderful for long trips. Subaru includes a unique cabin storage system that provides more room for your stuff. The rear cargo area is spacious, allowing you to load up for everything from grocery to camping trips.

Modern Technological Features

A large infotainment display with touchscreen capability connects you to various apps. Navigation is available, and an optional system supports a Wi-Fi hotspot with a cellular subscription. Every version of the Solterra will play nicely with your phone using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, too.

The safety technologies are a highly of Solterra ownership, also. Subaru's EyeSight driver assistance suite provides many standard features like automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.
