2027 Solterra Range by Trim
| Trim | Horsepower | Listed Range |
|---|---|---|
| Premium | 233 hp | Up to about 288 miles |

Premium is the range play. XT trims are the performance play. That does not mean the XT versions have poor range, but shoppers choosing the stronger 338-hp setup should expect the Premium trim to be the efficiency leader.
How Solterra Charging Works
The 2027 Solterra uses a NACS charge port and includes adapters for common charging connectors. The J1772 adapter helps with Level 2 AC charging, while the CCS1 adapter helps with public charging compatibility.
For most owners, Level 2 home charging is the main daily solution. DC fast charging is best for road trips, long errand days, or quick charging away from home.
Battery Preconditioning
Battery preconditioning helps the traction battery reach a better charging temperature. In cold or hot weather, that can make charging more predictable. In normal weather, it can help charging work more efficiently.
That is especially relevant in New York, where winter temperature swings can affect EV charging speed.
MPGe and Efficiency
The 2027 Solterra Premium is listed at 131 city, 109 highway, and 120 combined MPGe. Other Solterra trims are listed at 128 city, 105 highway, and 117 combined MPGe.
MPGe is an EV efficiency measurement. A higher number means the vehicle travels farther using the same amount of energy.
