Subaru Solterra keeps an estimated 41% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #472 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Subaru Solterra retains an estimated 41% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #472 of 530 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 40% five-year average for EV in its class.
Most of the loss lands early: the Subaru Solterra sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $38,495 it falls to around $15,667 by year five — a five-year loss near $22,828, about $12.51 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Subaru Solterra bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

From about $38,495 when new it drops to roughly $15,667 after five years — a loss near $22,828 (41% of its original MSRP retained).
Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
