Subaru doesn’t have the deepest bench when it comes to EVs. There’s the Solterra, now in its third model year, and the upcoming Trailseeker, which promises to be the Outback to the Solterra’s Impreza when it comes out in 2026. Now we can add a new member to the lineup. The 2026 Subaru Uncharted is an electric crossover SUV that like the Solterra and Trailseeker is built on Toyota’s E-TNGA platform. When it comes out next year, the Uncharted will have more than 300 miles of estimated range, 338 horsepower, and a sporty style befitting one of America’s favorite outdoor automotive brands. With Uncharted, Subaru finally seems like it’s ready to pick up the pace on electrification.

Improvements to Toyota's compact electric SUV bring it closer to the competition in terms of driving range, charging capabilities, and acceleration.

Toyota is redesigning and “electrifying” its Rav4 lineup for 2026 with models that aren’t quite EVs, but could masquerade as one. The mega popular SUV will come standard with hybrid powertrains, including a plug-in version with a feature you’d expect in only pure EVs: fast charging. That’s right, the 2026 Rav4 PHEV can now plug into CCS-compatible DC fast chargers, which means owners can quickly fill up its battery during long road trips — effectively playing imposter amongst all the EVs charging up at rest stops as it secretly conserves its gas tank. Rest stops often lack standard AC level 2 plugs that many plug-in hybrids rely on — the kind you’d have installed at home so you can wake up to a full charge every morning. The new Rav4’s on-board AC charger can also charge faster now at 11 kW, an upgrade from the previous
