2026 Subaru Trailseeker Review

The auto industry seems to be pulling back from its electric vehicle (EV) push, but apparently, Subaru did not get the memo. Instead, the Japanese automaker is rapidly expanding its EV lineup, and one of the newest additions is the Trailseeker. With a spacious cabin, rugged styling, and one of the most powerful drivetrains ever made in a production Subaru, the Trailseeker delivers the familiar Subaru blend of on-road comfort and off-road capability.
The new Trailseeker is slightly smaller than the brand’s popular Outback, but it shares many of the Outback’s attributes and capabilities and has a similar profile to the previous generation Outback. With body cladding, raised ground clearance, and X-Mode for optimized off-road capability, the Trailseeker feels and acts like a high-tech, electric version of the Outback.
