Subaru Uncharted enters the electric crossover market
Subaru headed into New York City’s baking urban sprawl to reveal the new Uncharted. This is neither an excellent videogame nor a disappointing film version of one; it is instead a gleaming electric crossover designed with sporty driving in mind. Naturally.
The twin-motor utility vehicle will arrive with 338hp and Subaru’s familiar symmetrical all-wheel-drive system. Sport and GT versions are expected to cover 0–60mph in five seconds from a standstill.
Toyota e-TNGA platform and Subaru styling
Although the Uncharted is a Subaru first, it does not tread entirely unknown ground. Look carefully and it is effectively an intriguing combination of the Solterra and the Toyota C-HR BEV, which was announced a couple of months ago. Each uses Toyota’s e-TNGA platform, while the C-HR - pronounced ‘chair’, chiefly by us - has the same motor layout and power output.
The Uncharted also carries the Solterra family resemblance, sharing its lighting signature with both the Solterra and Trailseeker. The CUV is roughly 18cm shorter than its more established sibling, yet its boot offers 708 litres of space behind the second row, exceeding the Solterra’s 674 litres. Meanwhile, its sport-tuned suspension is said to deliver dynamic on-road performance as well as traction and composure on loose ground.
Battery range, charging and cabin equipment
With a 74.7kWh battery fitted, Subaru anticipates that all-wheel-drive models will manage approximately 467km of range. The firm also says the CUV can charge from 10–80 per cent in 30 minutes at a rapid-charging station, supported by its built-in NACS port. Buyers prioritising range over performance will have a limited-production front-wheel-drive alternative. It produces only 221hp, but could extend range beyond 483km in favourable conditions.
The Uncharted’s interior includes a 35.6cm infotainment display, two wireless charging pads as standard on the centre console, two USB-C ports for rear-seat passengers, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Every trim receives Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assistance package, while selected versions add features including a panoramic-view monitor, lane-change assist and traffic-jam assist. An all-weather package is standard across the range, bringing heated front seats and a windscreen-wiper de-icer. Depending on trim, the vehicle sits on 45.7cm or 50.8cm wheels.
Prices have not yet been confirmed, although further details should emerge ahead of the launch in early 2026.
