Subaru Canada Inc. recently joined Subaru of America for the unveiling of the all-new 2026 Subaru Uncharted EV in New York City. The all-new, all-electric small compact SUV offers buyers a small, sporty SUV with up to 338 horsepower and a 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) time of less than 5 seconds, fast charging from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes, available Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, and an estimated available range of nearly 300 miles on a single charge. The all-new 2026 Subaru Uncharted will go on sale at dealerships in early 2026.
As the first Subaru all-electric small compact SUV, the name Uncharted signals the vehicle’s capability and fun-to-drive nature, taking owners and passengers to their next adventure, company officials stated in a press release. It will be available in two front-wheel-drive trim levels, as well as the all-wheel-drive Sport and GT trims.
The Subaru Uncharted Promises Performance for Any Journey
The 2026 Subaru Uncharted claims up to 338 horsepower from dual electric motors located on the front and rear axles, along with responsive handling, all balanced by a Subaru-tuned suspension. Compared to the Solterra EV, the all-new Subaru Uncharted is shorter by over 6.6 inches but offers more than 24 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row. The Subaru Uncharted is highly maneuverable, thanks to a turning radius nearly identical to the Crosstrek.
Powered by an available 77.0-kWh high-capacity lithium-ion battery, the Subaru Uncharted offers impressive range within Subaru’s EV lineup. Uncharted Sport and GT models are equipped with Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with X-Mode, an anticipated range of over 285 miles and 338 horsepower. Front-wheel drive and front-wheel drive long-range Uncharted models will also be available. The long-range model provides an estimated range of over 298 miles and 221 horsepower.
Subaru says that its engineers developed the Uncharted’s straight-line stability, handling and grip on loose surfaces such as gravel, dirt or snow through extensive chassis development. The lightweight and rigid high-strength steel used in its construction, structural support from its underfloor batteries, aerodynamic enhancements, and specifically tuned suspension components offer dynamic performance on and off road, noted the release.
The Subaru Uncharted Features Fast Charging & Seamless Style
The company claims that a standard NACS charge port with speeds up to approximately 150 kW ensures convenient and fast charging options at multiple charging stations nationwide. In cold weather conditions, the Uncharted can recharge its battery from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes thanks to an onboard battery preconditioning system. At home, a fast 11-kW onboard charger offers easy access to both Level 1 and Level 2 charging compatibility.
The all-new 2026 Subaru Uncharted has room for up to five passengers. Up front, it features Subaru’s lighting signature, shared with the 2026 Solterra and Trailseeker, and features distinctive, weather-resistant headlamps and a six-star illuminated logo.
It features new 18- or 20-inch wheel designs, as well as a high-contrast, two-tone roof exclusively on Uncharted GT. At the rear, the combination lamps, black badging, high beltline and seamless rear design complemented by a silver-painted lower rear fascia, add to the visual presence of the Uncharted. Low-profile roof rails on all-wheel-drive models add more options for carrying gear.
Subaru says pricing and more detailed specifications will be available closer to market launch in early 2026.
