Counterargument: The Solterra is by far the cheapest if you account for the federal and provincial rebates here in Canada, on top of the massive price cut Subaru gives you on the models it has sitting in their lots and the fact you can lease them at 0.49% APR.
Honestly, the only downside to our Solterra has been the slow fast chasing, which make no major difference for us because our daily commute fits easily within the car’s range. Even in winter.
OP - Don’t get discouraged by some of the negative reviews and comments about the Solterra. If you are able to get a good deal on one, the biggest complaint most reviewers have (paraphrased “it’s not worth it at this price”) falls away and you’re left with a very nice to drive and capable car for daily commutes and just about anything else that isn’t 2+ hour road trips.
[Edit] For the record: This is our fourth EV, after a second gen Leaf, Fiat 500e, and Hyundai Kona E.
