lol no. They have been dragged kicking and screaming into offering just one model, the bz4x.

They also spend a lot of money lobbying against electrification regulation, because they really don’t want to make EVs.

They were late to the game but are definitely investing more now.

They have three full EV's, in rough order of size: CH-R, BZ (previously called BZ4x), and BZ Woodland (basically a long station wagon version of the former).

Subaru is also selling a tweaked and rebadged version of each. I believe these are all made in Subaru factories with Toyota power-train components.

They're also priced pretty competitively.
