Subaru Doesn't Want to Make EVs.

TL;DR

The Subaru Uncharted is a rebadged Toyota BZ that's hard to recommend due to limited range, slow charging, and Toyota's clear indifference to EVs.

Key Points

• 1.The Subaru Uncharted is essentially a rebadged Toyota BZ, again. Just as the Solterra shared a platform with the BZ4X, the Uncharted repeats the pattern — the front is nearly identical and only a tiny 'Subaru' text in the headlight distinguishes it from the Toyota version.
• 2.Specs and pricing make it hard to justify. The GT trim tested costs ~$45,000 with 338hp, dual-motor AWD, and a 75 kWh battery yielding roughly 250 miles of real-world range; the base starts at $35,000 but the Chevy Bolt EUV likely beats it at that price.
• 3.Charging is adequate but not competitive. The Uncharted tops out at 150 kW via NACS, but the small 75 kWh battery means a 10–80% charge takes about 30 minutes — road trips are still a poor experience.
• 4.Interior comfort is a genuine highlight. The cabin is quiet, rides potholes well, features a 14-inch touchscreen, dual wireless chargers, physical temperature dials, a motorized sunroof cover, and heated rear seats, though the boot-up time is frustratingly slow.
• 5.Toyota's hybrid-first philosophy is the root problem. Subaru outsources EV development to Toyota, which excels at hybrids (Camry, Corolla, RAV4) but treats EVs as an obligation — resulting in a car the reviewer cannot recommend unless priced ~$5,000 lower.
