What home charger does the Subaru Uncharted need?
| Model years | Trims | Charger | Breaker |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-2027 | all trims | 48 A | 60 A |
The Subaru Uncharted takes a 48 A charger on a 60 A breaker. It accepts 11.0 kW on AC in both the 2026 and 2027 models.
Why 48 amps and not more
This is a compact, efficient crossover, and it charges quickly at home: 43 miles of range per hour at 48 A. A 40 A charger brings that to 36, which is still brisk. A charger above 48 A changes nothing, because the car limits its own intake.
Charging time by model year
| Year | EPA range | Level 2, miles per hour | Level 2, empty to full | 120 V, miles per hour |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | 273 to 308 mi | 43 | 7.2 h | 5.6 |
| 2026 | 273 to 308 mi | 43 | 7.2 h | 5.6 |
Level 2 figures assume a charger that supplies the car's full rate. Where a year shows a range, it spans that year's trims.
The 2026 and 2027 models match at the plug. Each has 273 to 308 miles of range and fills from empty in about 7.2 hours, so a full charge fits well inside one night. A used 2026 and a new 2027 need identical equipment.
What the install involves
Plan for a permit and an inspection on the new 240 V circuit. The electrician will fit a 60 A breaker and hardwire the charger, since no standard receptacle is rated for 48 A. If your panel is short on room, the car's efficiency makes a 40 A charger on a NEMA 14-50 outlet and a 50 A breaker a very reasonable choice.
- 48 A charger: 60 A breaker, hardwired, because no household receptacle is rated for a 48 A charger.
- Charge port: J1772. From 2025 the industry is moving to the NACS port, and makers switch at different times. Some of these cars have a J1772 port and some have NACS with an adapter, so look at the port on your own car before choosing a charger's plug.
Chargers that fit the Subaru Uncharted
Smallest adequate unit first. Every amp above what the car accepts is capacity it never uses.
Energy monitoring built in. Hardwire it for the full 48 A.
Compact unit, good for tight garages.
Adjustable from 16 A to 50 A in the app, which helps if your panel is tight.
