Subaru Solterra 2023-2026 Owner's Manual: Driving range

The driving range displayed on the multi-information display of the Subaru Solterra represents an estimated reference distance based on current conditions. The actual distance that can be traveled may vary depending on multiple factors and may differ from the displayed value.

Displayed value

The Subaru Solterra calculates the estimated driving range using real-time data, including the remaining charge level of the traction battery, battery condition, ambient temperature, and recent driving patterns. This calculated value is then shown on the multi-information display to assist the driver.

In colder environments, the performance and output of the traction battery in the Subaru Solterra may decrease, which can lead to a shorter estimated driving range. This is a normal characteristic of battery operation and does not indicate a malfunction. In such conditions, it is recommended to charge the battery earlier than usual to maintain sufficient driving capability.

Tips for extending the driving range

The achievable driving distance of the Subaru Solterra is highly influenced by driving style, road conditions, weather, outside temperature, use of electrical systems, and passenger or cargo load.

To maximize the driving range of the Subaru Solterra, consider applying the following recommendations:

• Maintain a safe following distance and avoid sudden acceleration or unnecessary braking
• Drive smoothly with gradual acceleration and deceleration
• Keep a steady and moderate speed whenever possible
• Adjust the climate control system to a comfortable but moderate setting and avoid excessive heating or cooling
• Use tires of the correct specification and maintain proper tire pressure at all times
• Avoid carrying unnecessary weight to reduce energy consumption

Display when charging is completed

The following indicators confirm that charging of the Subaru Solterra has been successfully completed:

• The AC charging indicator turns off
• A message stating "Charging complete" appears on the multi-information display when a door is opened while the power switch is off

Regardless of the charging method used or whether a scheduled charging function is active, these indicators confirm that the Subaru Solterra is fully charged and ready for operation.
