The New Subaru Model- Solterra
We have talked in detail about the exciting new EV, the Solterra here, But we felt we needed to include it into our 2023 list.
The electric crossover SUV has a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system fed by a 71.4kWh battery pack driving the 160kW electric engine, offering up to 567km of claimed driving range.
The 2023 Solterra gives you the airy, open feel of a much larger vehicle. Sporting high-quality upholstery and soft-touch materials throughout, it creates a cabin that’s both modern and full of convenient, comfortable features.
Pricing starts at $44.995 for the premium model, ranging to $51,995 for the decked out touring package
2023 Subaru Legacy-The Reliable Family Sedan
With a bigger grille and new lower bumper, the mid-size sedan that is related to the Outback wagon has a new look.
New LED headlamp and fog light designs complete the outside, while inside, Subaru has combined the previous twin touchscreens into a single 11.6-inch touchscreen that, with the exception of the entry model, supports wireless smartphone connectivity.
Lower trim models use a 135kw 2.5-liter flat-4, while Sport, Limited, and Touring XT, higher spec versions get a 193kw 2.4-liter turbocharged flat-4.
Prices will rise over the current range, The higher trim levels will be receiving a bigger bump up in cost.
2023 Subaru Outback-The Exciting Wagon
The 2023 Subaru Outback prices are up by $2000, but the popular wagon ha been updated with new features and a turbocharged engine option.
A model-year update that includes updates to the infotainment system and interior technology comes along with the new engine. Updates include USB-C ports, a nine-speaker Harman Kardon sound system and upgraded software for the 11.6-inch touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto replacing the previous wired version.
Prices start on the low trim Outback AWD at $42,690. Up $2000 from last year. All the way up to $55,990 for the range topping Outback AWD Touring XT.
2023 Subaru XV Or Now Known As the Crosstrek
The Subaru XV title has been retired. With a fresh appearance, additional technology, and hybrid power, the new vehicle will sport the Crosstrek badge internationally.
The XV has been badged the Crosstrek in the US since it launched in 2012 – but for the third generation, Subaru is taking the name global, replacing the XV name everywhere.
Power outputs are yet to be released to the public. With a continuously-variable automatic transmission (CVT) sending power to all four wheels, The outgoing XV produced 110kW/196Nm from its engine and 12.3kW from its electric motor, so we assume it will be similar.
