The Uncharted’s base Premium FWD trim gives it a clear price advantage over the AWD-only C-HR, but it doesn’t come with a big penalty in terms of standard features. For $36,445 including destination the Uncharted Premium has that 14-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two wireless chargers, a power trailgate, 10-way power adjustment for the driver’s seat, customizable ambient lighting, four USB-C ports, automatic dual-zone climate control, heated front seats, full LED headlights and taillights with automatic high beams and headlight washers, heated power side mirrors, rain-sensing wipers with a de-icer, and Eco and Snow drive modes. Oh, and a nearly full suite of Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assist features including adaptive cruise control with lane tracing, blind-spot monitoring, safe exit assist, rear cross-traffic alert, traffic sign recognition and automated emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection.

At $41,245 the Sport is $2,795 more than the $38,450 base C-HR SE, but you get some features from the $40,450 C-HR XSE. In addition to the dual-motor setup, the Sport adds roof rails, an illuminated front logo, the Power drive mode plus the X-Mode, StarTex upholstery instead of cloth, memory for the driver’s seat, an 8-way power-adjustable passenger seat, the surround-view camera, and lane-change assist and traffic-jam assist. Moving up to the $45,245 Uncharted GT unlocks the ability to get a two-tone black roof and gets you the panoramic roof, 20-inch wheels, heated outboard rear seats, and three features not offered on the Toyota: a digital rear-view mirror, ventilated front seats and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon sound system (the Toyota has a 9-speaker JBL stereo).
Subaru showed us data from customer clinics it conducted surrounding the Uncharted and its competitive segment. 77% of people said their car should express their personality, 73% said they seek out variety in everyday life, and 97% said being true to themselves is very important — I feel bad for that other 3%. It may not be the most exciting or characterful EV out there, but I think the 2026 Subaru Uncharted is good enough to satisfy those people, and certainly the automaker’s leagues of fans that actually want to get out in the world and do active-lifestyle things while also being environmentally conscious. After all, 100% of respondents said buying an EV is the right thing to do to protect the environment, and that they’re willing to pay more to get something cleaner.
