Subaru is preparing to expand its electric vehicle lineup once again with the arrival of the 2026 Subaru Uncharted. Following the success of the Solterra, this all-electric subcompact crossover is designed to deliver adventurous style, everyday convenience, and renowned Subaru capability with minimal space requirements. Officially unveiled in July 2025 and slated to arrive in early 2026, the Uncharted will give Chicago-area drivers a new reason to consider going electric.
Power, Range, and Performance
The Uncharted takes Subaru's EV experience a step further. The available Sport and GT trims come equipped with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system that delivers an impressive 338 horsepower and up to 290 miles of estimated range. With this setup, the Uncharted offers surprising acceleration, reaching 60 mph from a standstill in under five seconds. You'll also enjoy the enhanced confidence of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and dual-function X-MODE® traction.
The Subaru Uncharted Premium trim is ideal for shoppers who prioritize efficiency and affordability. This front-wheel drive variant makes 221 horsepower and enables an estimated 300+ miles of range. The Uncharted supports rapid charging and can restore 10–80% of its battery capacity in about 30 minutes at a compatible station—even in cold Chicago winters.
Small Size, Big Capability
Though more compact than the Solterra, the Uncharted offers more rear cargo space and a turning radius similar to the Crosstrek, making it an excellent fit for city driving and suburban errands alike. Its strong chassis, balanced suspension, and low-mounted battery deliver smooth handling and a stable ride, whether you're navigating traffic in Elmhurst or heading out of town on gravel backroads.
Styling cues include bold LED lighting, available two-tone paint finishes, and an illuminated six-star Subaru badge. Low-profile roof rails on AWD models add extra practicality for weekend trips with bikes or skis.
Interior Features and Technology
Inside, the Uncharted feels advanced and welcoming. A 14-inch touchscreen anchors the cabin, running Subaru's newest multimedia system with standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Dual wireless charging pads, USB-C ports in both rows, and Subaru's All-Weather Package (heated front seats and a windshield wiper de-icer) are standard across the lineup.
The Sport trim adds features like a heated steering wheel, panoramic view monitor, and water-repellent StarTex® seating. The GT steps into luxury territory with ventilated front seats, a panoramic moonroof, Harman Kardon® audio, a digital rearview mirror, and distinctive 20-inch wheels.
Safety and Everyday Usability
As expected from the Subaru brand, safety comes standard. The Uncharted includes an updated EyeSight® driver-assist suite with features like Pre-Collision Braking, Blind Spot Monitoring, Adaptive Cruise Control with Traffic Jam Assist, and Lane Change Assist.
Passengers benefit from spacious second-row seating, available heated rear seats, and sustainable interior materials built to last. Cargo space measures 25 cubic feet behind the second row, and much more with the rear seats folded. With its blend of cutting-edge technology, capable performance, and thoughtful design, the 2026 Subaru Uncharted is ready to make a strong impression when it finally arrives at our dealership.
