All-New 2026 Subaru Trailseeker in Scarborough, ON
Authentically Subaru
It can pose a quandary for some automakers when they team up with a rival to jointly develop a new model. That’s especially true if you are a brand as distinct as Subaru. The all-new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker is an adaptation of a previous all-electric compact SUV developed in conjunction with another Japanese brand. Compared to the model it’s based upon, the Subaru Trailseeker is bigger, more rugged, more powerful, and well, more Subaru.
Trim Levels
The 2026 Subaru Trailseeker is available in Touring, Limited, and Premier trim levels. Touring opens the range with 18-inch alloy wheels with aerodynamic covers, LED headlights with High-Beam Assist, black lower cladding, a power liftgate, raised roof rails, and privacy glass for the rear areas. Limited moves to 20-inch two-tone alloy wheels and adds a stronger visual presence through trim-specific exterior detailing. Premier adds further visual upgrades, including a panoramic fixed-glass roof with a power shade, gloss-black hood accents, a light-up grille emblem, backlit SUBARU rear badging, and additional premium exterior finishes that give the lineup a more upscale appearance.
Range and Performance
The 2026 Subaru Trailseeker uses a dual-motor electric powertrain with one eAxle at the front and another at the rear. Each motor produces 167 kW, and the total system output reaches 375 horsepower. Subaru pairs this setup with its Symmetrical All-wheel Drive system, giving the Subaru Trailseeker standard AWD across the lineup. The 74.7-kWh lithium-ion battery uses liquid cooling and heating, and it also includes battery preconditioning. The range reaches up to 444 kilometres, while combined energy consumption starts at 2.0 L/100 km. Level 2 charging at 240 volts takes about eight hours in ideal conditions. DC fast charging can take the battery from 10 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes, with charging rates up to 150 kW. The Subaru Trailseeker also includes X-MODE, Grip Control, Downhill Assist Control, S-Pedal Drive, and selectable Power and Eco drive modes. Performance is strong, with 0-100 km/h arriving in 4.4 seconds. Towing capacity reaches 1,587 kilograms with trailer brakes.
Features and Technology
The cabin of the 2026 Subaru Trailseeker combines a spacious five-passenger layout with a strong technology package. Every trim features a 14.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a 7-inch colour digital gauge cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, along with Bluetooth connectivity, voice activation, and Bluetooth streaming audio. SubaruConnect adds cloud-based navigation, an intelligent assistant, remote destination support, charge scheduling, climate pre-conditioning, remote lock and unlock, charging-station search, and vehicle health reporting. A dual wireless phone charger sits in the centre console, while USB-C ports serve both front and rear passengers. Touring includes a six-speaker audio system, while higher trims offer an 11-speaker Harman Kardon system with a subwoofer and amplifier. Standard comfort features include dual-zone automatic climate control, a heat pump system, radiant heating, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and rear ventilation outlets. Higher trims add ventilated front seats, heated rear outboard seats, driver memory settings, leather upholstery, and a smart rearview mirror.
