From $47,995 to $53,995: How the 2027 Solterra’s Three Trims Stack Up for Ontario Buyers
July 17 2026,
The 2027 Subaru Solterra arrives with a reorganized three-trim lineup and a starting MSRP of $47,995, $4,500 less than the 2026 model. For Ontario buyers deciding between Touring, Limited, and Premier, the real question is where each price jump earns its keep.
Every trim shares the same 77 kWh NMC battery, dual electric motors producing 338 hp, Symmetrical Full-Time AWD, 446 km of range, and Level 3 DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes. The foundation is strong across the board; what changes as the price rises is comfort, convenience, and audio.

Where Each Price Jump Actually Changes the Drive
The Touring-to-Limited jump is the most loaded step in the lineup. The Limited adds 20-inch aluminum alloy wheels (up from 18-inch on the Touring), a roofline spoiler, power-adjustable and power-folding heated door mirrors with LED puddle lights, rear outboard seat heating, a heated steering wheel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a panoramic view monitor for 360-degree visibility, a hands-free kick sensor on the power liftgate, Advanced Park, and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. That is a significant amount of hardware for a $2,000 MSRP gap.
The Limited-to-Premier jump is more targeted. The Premier adds a gloss black hood accent, a panoramic fixed glass roof with a retractable sun shade, ventilated front seats, a smart rearview mirror with a camera washer, and a tonneau cargo cover. These are comfort and luxury additions rather than functional upgrades to safety or convenience tech.
The Best-Value Pick: Touring With EVAP Eligibility
The Touring is the trim to start with if budget discipline matters. At $47,995 MSRP, it arrives fully equipped with EyeSight driver assist (Pre-Collision System, Blind Spot Monitor, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Change Assist, Reverse Automatic Braking, Emergency Driving Stop Assist, and Emergency Steering Assist), DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation, heated front seats in StarTex material, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, dual wireless phone chargers, and USB-C ports front and rear. The cladding choices, body colour or contrasting black, give it more visual personality than a typical base trim.
Critically, the Touring with single-tone paint is eligible for the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program (EVAP), which may qualify buyers for up to $5,000 in government incentives in some provinces, including Ontario. That brings the effective cost of entry meaningfully lower.
- 338 hp dual-motor AWD, 446 km range
- 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels
- Full EyeSight safety suite standard
- EVAP-eligible with single-tone paint
The Midpoint Case: Why the Limited Earns Its $2,000
The Limited at $49,995 is also EVAP-eligible with single-tone paint, so the incentive picture is identical to the Touring. The $2,000 difference buys the Harman Kardon 11-speaker audio system alone, which in most competitive SUVs costs considerably more as an add-on. Add the 360-degree panoramic view monitor, heated rear seats, Advanced Park, and the hands-free liftgate, and the Limited is genuinely hard to pass up for daily family use.
For buyers who spend time parallel parking in Vaughan’s denser shopping areas or want a cleaner audio experience on longer Ontario highway runs, the Limited is the trim that earns back its premium in daily use.
What the Premier’s Extra $4,000 Buys
The Premier at $53,995 MSRP is built around the panoramic fixed glass roof, ventilated front seats, and the smart rearview mirror with camera washer. These are the features that make long summer drives noticeably more comfortable, and the ventilated seats are genuinely rare at this price point in the EV segment.
The trade-off: the Premier’s transaction pricing may fall outside the EVAP price cap depending on final purchase conditions. Buyers considering the Premier should confirm their EVAP eligibility before committing, as the incentive that brings the Touring and Limited’s effective cost down may not apply here.
Which 2027 Solterra Trim Fits Your Ontario Drive?
The Touring makes sense if you want the lowest cost of entry, full safety tech, and EVAP eligibility without compromise on the powertrain. The Limited is the trim most buyers will find harder to leave behind once they see what the $2,000 adds. The Premier is for the buyer who genuinely uses every comfort feature and has confirmed their incentive situation.
All three trims share the same 338 hp dual-motor AWD setup, 446 km range, and 30-minute DC fast-charge capability. The powertrain is not the variable here, your priorities around audio, comfort tech, and roof options are what separates the three.
