JAKARTA - Shocking news came from the automotive brand from Japan, Subaru. This brand decided to give discounts to the Solterra electric car (EV) which is already quite well-selling in the US.

Launching from InsideEVs, Wednesday, August 28, the car is currently being sold at an estimated retail price (MSRP) at the beginning of 46,340 US dollars (Rp719.2 million) or below the average transaction price of 48,401 US dollars (Rp749.8 million) for new vehicles in Uncle Sam's country.

However, this price does not include a 12 percent discount from MSRP, which is USD 5,561 (IDR 86.1 million). Thus, now buyers can take the crossover home below USD 41,000 (IDR 635.1 million).
