Subaru Unveils 2027 Getaway EV and Forester Wilderness Hybrid at New York Auto Show

The launches show Subaru using Toyota hardware to speed its EV push without dropping core AWD traits.

Overview

  • Shown Wednesday in New York, the three-row Getaway arrives late 2026 with dual‑motor all‑wheel drive, 420 hp, a 95.8‑kWh battery, an estimated 300+ miles of range, a NACS charging port, and 150 kW DC fast charging.
  • Subaru quotes under five seconds to 60 mph, 8.3 inches of ground clearance, X‑Mode off‑road settings, and a 3,500‑pound tow rating.
  • A 77‑kWh standard‑range Getaway is slated for 2027, with charge‑route planning at launch, cold‑weather preconditioning to 14°F, and a vehicle‑to‑load adapter planned next year.
  • The 2027 Forester Wilderness Hybrid pairs a 2.5‑liter boxer engine with electric motors for about 194 hp and up to 25% better fuel economy, and it keeps the Wilderness model’s 9.3 inches of ground clearance.
  • Both reveals use Toyota’s e‑TNGA/Highlander EV underpinnings, pricing is still unannounced, and reporting points to possible U.S. assembly in Toyota’s Kentucky plant that Subaru has not confirmed.
