Subaru has unveiled the all-new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker, its latest electric SUV and the brand’s second all-electric model. Designed for adventure seekers, the Trailseeker blends Subaru’s renowned off-road capability with a next-generation electric powertrain and a bold, modern design.
All-New 2026 Subaru Trailseeker
Bold Design and Spacious Interior
The Trailseeker’s name perfectly reflects its adventurous spirit. It offers 8.3 inches of ground clearance, ideal for tackling rugged terrain, while providing practical passenger and cargo space. Compared to Subaru’s first electric SUV, the Solterra, the Trailseeker is over six inches longer and nearly an inch taller, resulting in more rear cargo space and enhanced versatility.
Standard raised roof rails add carrying capacity, perfect for outdoor gear and accessories. The exterior introduces Subaru’s new EV lighting signature, featuring:
-
A six-star illuminated emblem
-
Redesigned headlamps
-
Updated front bumper
-
Stylish 18- and 20-inch wheels
The rear showcases a three-dimensional SUBARU logo and rear gate garnish, creating a unique light profile especially striking at night.
Inside, the Trailseeker offers Subaru’s largest-ever touchscreen — a 14-inch multimedia display — which anchors an open and modern cabin. Metallic accents highlight the horizontal dashboard layout, while a wide center console provides convenient storage and charging for personal devices.
