2023 Subaru Solterra Home Chargers
Every Subaru Solterra comes with a Level 1 123-volt home charger. You'll also enjoy the ability to upgrade to a Level 2 240-Volt charger. The Solterra is also compatible with 46,000 public charging stations, including Level 2 and Level 3 DC Fast-chargers. Let's take a look at the charging speeds for each type of Subaru Solterra charging station below:
- Level 1 (120-Volt) Charger: No concrete information on charging speeds for Subaru Solterra home chargers has been released. However, it will likely take around 24 hours to reach an 80% charge using a Level 1.
- Level 2 (240-Volt) Charger*: Upgrade to the Level 2 chargers, and you'll likely be able to charge your Solterra to 80% in an afternoon.
- Level 3 DC Fast-Charger: Level 3 DC fast-chargers are reported to be able to charge the Solterra to 80% in under an hour. Stay tuned for more specifics about charge times as we approach the release date.
How to Charge the 2023 Subaru Solterra
Charging an electric vehicle is easy. Simply park in front of a Subaru Solterra charging station and insert its charging cable into the outlet on the side of your Solterra. While the Solterra is compatible with most chargers, make sure to consult the Subaru Solterra charging guide in your owner's manual, so you can know for certain which chargers are compatible. Also, many charging stations belong to charging networks, which require you to install an app and become a member in order to use their chargers.
Now that you know the basics of how to charge the Subaru Solterra, take a moment to read about the special considerations each type of charger requires:
- Level 1 (120-Volt) Charger: Just plug your charging adapter into an outlet and plug your Solterra into it with your charging cable, and you're good to go!
- Level 2 (240-Volt) Charger*: Upgrade to the Level 2 charger, and you'll need to hire a professional to install it. That's because the Level 2 charger draws power directly from your electrical panel and needs to be wired in. You also need a special outlet installed for your charger. While this can be expensive, you can cover the cost with federal tax incentives!
- Level 2 and 3 DC Fast-Charger: These chargers are only for public and commercial use, so they don't require special considerations.
How to Find Subaru Solterra Charging Stations
The Subaru Solttera can be charged at any Level 2 or Level 3 DC fast-charging station and is compatible with 46,000 charging stations across the nation. That said, Subaru has partnered with EVGo, the first nationwide network of charging stations that use 100% renewable energy.
