The 2027 Subaru Getaway is a three-row all-electric SUV from Subaru of America, positioned as the brand’s flagship EV above the Trailseeker in its expanding electric lineup. It is built on the same platform as the Toyota Highlander EV, sharing its underpinnings while differentiating with standard all-wheel drive across every trim. The Getaway is notable for being Subaru’s most powerful production model to date, and the first three-row electric SUV in the brand’s history.
The long-range Getaway launches with a 95.8 kWh lithium-ion battery delivering a manufacturer-estimated range of over 300 miles, with DC fast charging rated at 150 kW peak — capable of a 10–80% charge in 30 minutes. A standard-range variant with a 77 kWh battery is confirmed for the first half of 2027, though its range and performance figures have not yet been disclosed. AC onboard charging rate has not been officially published at the time of writing. The 300+ mile range figure is a manufacturer estimate; EPA-certified numbers are pending.
Official pricing has not been announced, with Subaru indicating details will follow closer to the on-sale date — expected late 2026 for the long-range model. Analyst estimates place the starting price in the mid-to-upper $40,000 range, though some publications estimate $55,000–$60,000 is more likely given its position above the Trailseeker. No African market pricing or regional distribution has been confirmed. The Getaway suits families or buyers needing genuine seven-seat capacity with AWD reliability and a usable third row. Within Subaru’s own lineup, it sits above the 2026 Solterra (from $38,495) and the Trailseeker, serving as the brand’s volume flagship. Externally, its primary rivals are the Kia EV9 and Hyundai Ioniq 9 — the Kia EV9 being the closest spec-for-spec comparison given its similar three-row layout, AWD configuration, and overlapping price band.
