Subaru Corporation recently announced that they will build an electric model factory in 2027 and begin manufacturing new EV models as soon as their battery-electric production increases over the next five years. What will Subaru’s next electric car be after the 2023 Solterra Compact SUV?
Subaru claims that it will design the models and will not rely on Toyota to help it with its next all-wheel-drive EVs. Subaru will build an EV factory at its Oizumi facility. The Oizumi plant currently produces engines and transmissions. We have shown you the Solterra compact pickup that can be used for electric cars, and Mike Nicholson designed Subaru Outback 2024 to offer customers in America.
2024 Subaru Outback Hybrid Redesign
Subaru will make the all-electric, all-wheel-drive Subaru models for U.S. customers and global markets. Subaru CEO Tomomi Nakamura stated that they are still deciding what type of EVs to make and did not provide a production figure. Automotive News reports that he stated that they would begin small and then expand as necessary.
Subaru Corporation should seriously consider the 2024 Subaru Outback EV. The Outback is Subaru’s most popular all-wheel-drive model. Outback sales outnumbered Crosstrek, Forester, and Forester in the first five months of 2022.
Subaru says it will begin introducing next-generation hybrid vehicles by 2025. These models will be powered with gasoline-electric powertrains from Toyota. This is similar to the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid. Customers can expect hybrid SUVs by Subaru Forester, Outback, and Ascent by 2025. Subaru could name the new hybrids “eBoxers”, just like in Japan and Australia. Subaru announced that it will invest $2.05B over five years in new hybrids and electric vehicles.
For customers in the United States, there will be more all-wheel drive, all-electric Subaru Solterra Evo compact SUVs. These models will be available in 2027.

Engine and Gas Mileage
A 2.5-liter flat-four engine is the best option if you are looking for a standard model. The all-wheel drive is available as well as the CVT gearbox. Subaru’s flat-four engine is known as a Boxer because of its opposite positions. This configuration is very fuel-friendly, with a combined 30 MPG (remember that AWD is standard). The company is currently working to improve the efficiency of the system. The base engine can be powered by electric batteries. The 2024 Subaru Outback Hybrid is expected to produce 200 horsepower, match city fuel economy, and return around 34 mpg on the highway.
Another option is to electrify a turbocharged Boxer. It is unlikely, as the Boxer’s turbo-four of 2.4 l is the most powerful. Gas mileage is the priority. Outback XT’s maximum power output is 260 hp. It can go from 0-60 mph in 6 seconds. This configuration does not require an electric boost which could cause performance to suffer. A PHEV system can, however, increase all numbers on the specifications sheet. Subaru can follow the Toyota Rav4’s lead, which produces 302 horsepower and returns 38 mpg.
Subaru’s new Forester is powered by a 1.8-liter engine. Although this engine is currently only available to Japanese customers, Subaru fans hope it will soon be available in other countries. It has 175 horsepower and 220 pounds of torque. Although the power output is similar to the US model, the torque gets a significant boost.
Experts believe the new 1.8-liter engine is the heart of the 2024 Subaru Outback Hybrid. It’s possible. You can find a Forester hybrid in Japan using a 2.5-l MHEV. The Outback has more power and is therefore larger. Potential buyers should verify the vehicle’s fuel consumption before purchasing.
Facelift Mid-Cycle
The Outback crossover was based on the Legacy sports sedan. This vehicle has seen seven generations and has been in production for more than 35 years. The next version may be introduced soon. The latest version was released in 2020. After just four years, it is possible to see a new version in this segment. Subaru won’t do the same for the Outback. With a new hybrid drivetrain, the crossover will see its first facelift.
The standard package will be replaced by the 2024 Subaru Outback Hybrid. The higher trim levels have more advanced features. All models, including bumpers, headlights, and hoods, will see a redesign. While the exterior won’t be changed, the interiors will. There are nine trim levels available, along with an additional option for a hybrid engine. All packages include a choice between three drivetrains: XT Turbo or standard 2.5. Many people want to know more about the combination drivetrain setup and Wilderness trim. It is highly unlikely that this will be the case.
2024 Subaru Outback Hybrid Price & Release Date
This market is one of the fastest growing. Subaru isn’t among the market leaders, so the Outback Hybrid has some work ahead of it. Subbie isn’t among the top-performing models in this segment. It can get 40 mpg. You don’t have to be the best, but your presence must be present.
The base Outback is priced at $28,500, while the XT starts at $35,000. Here is where we expect the Subaru Outback Hybrid 2024 to debut. Though the debut date is not yet known, insiders claim that work is already underway. Sales will begin in the last quarter of 2023. The release date will be affected by the redesign and how many changes the update brings.
