FIRST DRIVE: The Solterra is here and Subaru has worked again with Toyota to create this electric SUV. The Solterra is the sibling to the Toyota bZ4x and is meant to competitor with the Tesla Model Y, Ford Mach-E and VW ID.4. On the outside you will find many specific Subaru touches like the grill, wheels, and flat black cladding. On the inside is the largest infotainment screen on any Subaru. Powering the Solterra are (2) electrtic motors that come standard. Is the 2023 Subaru Solterra a better SUV than aToyota bZ4x for the PRICE?

    I'm 98% positive they accidentally mixed up the names for each brand. BZ4X defo sounds like a Subaru name, and Solterra is perfectly aligned with Toyota... Am I right?
  • @afacto
    I really love how detailed your reviews are!
  • @Bluesky1ification
    Finally! fog lights are back in style again!, it so annoying that most car makers are getting rid of fog lights. we need that in bad fog! thank you for the great review on the Subaru, Joe 🙏
  • @chabbysrides
    Awesome stuff Joe and Lori! Loved the On Throttle action. Best Solterra review out there!!
  • @ianemory5800
    Subaru would put awd on a tricycle. I do respect their hustle though. This looks like another solid entry into their lineup
  • @IsaacPoopsAlot
    Wow I didn't even know this existed, I'm happy Toyota and Subaru are sharing resources and engineering, while still keeping in touch with their own separate cues.

    I absolutely live for your reviews, Joe! I found you and Lori (sp) while I was researching the Solterra after it was first announced. Your interior space contextualization is hilarious. “Two granola bars,” “an avocado,” “dog treats,” these things crack me up. I’ve been waiting for your full review. Glad you finally dropped it. Thanks for all of your work! One question: if you were in the market for a BEV, is the Solterra something you would seriously consider?
  • @redsreport9843
    Joe is like Salesman of all cars! Love the review semi detail but enough for newbies like me
  • @tascanivelo8156
    Wow the color it is really good !!! Well done Joe ! As usual best you tube car review !
  • @shawnivy
    I think it's a very great start for Subaru and their EV line. Definitely a strong contender. Always happy to see Lori getting a chance to ride with Joe.🙂
  • @MrWade-kf7su
    Love your sense of humor. As always, great in-depth review!

    I'm a tad confused about the "is it better than the BZ4X". It's the exact same vehicle, made with slight tweaks so it could be released under another brand. Both the Solterra and BZ4X are literally the same exact machine. As far as I know, both versions are done by Toyota. Subaru is way behind times and is being saved by Toyota here (which has a lot of shares in Subaru), by releasing a battery powered vehicle. So, if you like this car, pick your best color and that's about it.
