Subaru has revealed US pricing for their new all-electric crossover, the Solterra. As a matter of fact, I was flown to Catalina Island and got to experience the Subaru Solterra – then got lost, had a flat tire, and almost missed my plane. But lived to tell the tale. The Solterra is coming in hot, offering a highly competitive price for one of the best AWD systems on the market today, electric or otherwise.
