The 2027 Subaru Trailseeker is the utility-focused EV in Subaru’s lineup. It has the range and charging story shoppers expect from a modern EV, but its towing, cargo, ground clearance, and roof rail ratings are what make it feel like a Subaru.

Bottom Line: The 2027 Trailseeker is rated to tow up to 3,500 pounds, offers about 31.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats on Premium and Limited, and has roof rails rated for 176 pounds in motion or 700 pounds while parked.

  • 3,500-lb towing capacity
  • 375 hp from dual 167-kW motors
  • 8.5 inches of ground clearance
  • About 74.0 cu ft of cargo volume with rear seats folded on Premium and Limited

Trailseeker Towing Capacity

Trailseeker is rated to tow up to 3,500 pounds. That is enough for many small trailers, personal watercraft, small boats, utility trailers, and compact campers.

As with any EV or SUV, real-world towing range depends on trailer weight, speed, terrain, weather, and cargo load. The rating gives Trailseeker meaningful weekend flexibility, but planning matters.

Cargo Space

Trailseeker cargo space is comparable to Forester, which is exactly the point. Premium and Limited trims list 31.3 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 74.0 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. Touring lists 30.4 cubic feet behind the seats and 71.8 cubic feet with seats folded.

That makes Trailseeker a practical fit for beach gear, luggage, child gear, folding chairs, tools, and outdoor equipment.

Roof Rail Ratings

Trailseeker roof rails are rated at 176 pounds dynamic and 700 pounds static. Dynamic capacity applies while driving. Static capacity applies while parked.

For buyers considering roof boxes, carriers, boards, or a parked camping setup, those numbers matter as much as horsepower.

Ground Clearance and Trail Features

The 2027 Trailseeker has 8.5 inches of ground clearance, dual-function X-MODE, Downhill Assist, and Grip Control. It is still an EV, but it keeps the Subaru expectation that bad weather, uneven lots, and rougher access roads should not end the trip.
