Say hello to Subaru’s first serious electric adventure wagon – the Subaru E-Outback electric off-road estate is finally official.Launching globally in 2026, this rugged EV estate combines the brand’s off-road DNA with modern electric performance.
Muscle EV Performance, Off-Road Ready
Powering the E-Outback is a dual-motor EV system that delivers a punchy 375 bhp (280 kW), launching it from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds – making it among the quickest Subarus to date.
As expected from Subaru, off-road ability is top priority:
- Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for traction on any surface
- 210 mm ground clearance for rough terrain
- Dual-Function X-Mode for snow, dirt and mud
- EV Torque Vectoring for cornering control
- Towing capacity up to 1,588 kg (3,500 lbs)
Battery, Charging, Everyday Use
Powering the E-Outback is a 74.7 kWh battery, expected to deliver over 260 miles (around 420 km) between charges. For fast charging, it supports 150 kW DC fast charging and can go from 10% to 80% in under 35 minutes.
North American models come with the NACS plug so you can access Tesla’s Supercharger network.

- 14-inch touchscreen infotainment
