2025 Subaru Solterra vs. 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV

The 2025 Subaru Solterra continues to redefine what an electric SUV should be — versatile, capable, and built for real-world adventure. With standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on every trim, dual-motor electric performance, and rugged features like 8.3 inches of ground clearance and X-MODE® off-road capability, the Solterra is engineered for drivers who want electric efficiency without sacrificing all-season confidence. Its bold styling, spacious interior, and available 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system make it a smart choice for those who expect more from their EV — especially in places like Lee’s Summit where traction and terrain matter year-round.

Compare it to the 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV, and the difference becomes clear. While the Equinox EV offers strong range and sleek design, it’s limited by front-wheel drive on base trims, lower ground clearance, and no dedicated off-road features. The Solterra delivers confidence, capability, and connectivity — no compromises required. If you're looking for an electric SUV that’s ready for every season and every trail, the 2025 Subaru Solterra is the one to beat.

Subaru Solterra Power & Capability

The 2025 Subaru Solterra isn’t just electric — it’s engineered to deliver confidence and control in every condition. With dual electric motors and standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on every trim, the Solterra delivers responsive torque and balanced performance that makes every drive feel secure and engaging. Unlike many electric SUVs that reserve AWD for higher trims, the Solterra builds capability into its core — giving you enhanced traction whether you're navigating city streets or venturing off the beaten path.

When it comes to real-world performance, the Solterra stands apart. Its low center of gravity from the battery placement improves balance and handling, while its 8.3 inches of ground clearance and X-MODE® off-road assist make it ready for snow, gravel, and everything in between. Add in Subaru’s reputation for durability, all-weather confidence, and adventure-ready engineering, and you’ve got an electric SUV that’s not just built for the commute — it’s built for the journey ahead.
