Porsche Taycan 4s Cross Turismo Safety
NHTSA safety across every Porsche Taycan 4s Cross Turismo model year we cover.
Across the 3 model years of the Porsche Taycan 4s Cross Turismo we cover (2022 to 2024), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. 9 recalls have been issued across those years.
The Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo received no crash testing from NHTSA. The agency issued no overall safety rating for the vehicle, nor did it rate it for frontal crash, side crash, or rollover. Without crash-test results, the Safety Index cannot be computed. However, the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo accumulated safety recalls and one owner complaint. The recalls address issues ranging from potential battery thermal events to seat belt malfunctions. The single owner complaint describes an incident of unexpected power loss during operation.
The 2022-2024 Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo enters the market without federal crash-test ratings, a significant omission for a vehicle in its segment. This absence means consumers lack NHTSA star ratings or a computed Safety Index to assess its structural integrity. Across the 2022-2024 model years, the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo has accumulated 29 recalls. This figure is substantial for a low-volume, high-cost electric vehicle, pointing to the complexities inherent in early production of advanced EV platforms. Potential owners must confirm that all outstanding recalls have been addressed by an authorized Porsche dealer, particularly for any pre-owned examples. Owner complaints total 106 for these model years, including 5 alleged crashes, 2 alleged fires, and 4 reported injuries. While these are unverified claims, the reported fire incidents are noteworthy given concerns about high-voltage battery systems. No fatalities have been reported in connection with these complaints. However, the allegations of fire merit a thorough review of any related recalls or technical service bulletins. The safety profile of the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo remains partially undefined without federal crash-test data. Its recall record indicates the necessity of careful review before purchase.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally regard the Taycan Cross Turismo as one of the most engaging and refined electric vehicles on the market, praising its sharp handling, composed ride, and premium interior materials. The elevated roofline and wagon format earn points for added versatility without compromising the sporting character the Taycan nameplate is known for. Most reviewers consider it a strong value proposition within the luxury EV segment.
- NHTSA has not crash-tested the 2022-2024 Taycan 4S Cross Turismo, so there are no federal star ratings available. Shoppers cannot use government crash scores to evaluate structural protection and should factor this data gap into their decision.
- With 29 recalls across just three model years, this vehicle carries an above-average recall burden for its segment. Before purchasing any example, especially a used one, confirm through NHTSA's VIN lookup tool that every open recall has been completed at an authorized Porsche dealer.
- Owner complaints include 2 alleged fire incidents across the covered model years. While these are unverified allegations, buyers should review any related recall or technical service bulletin activity tied to the high-voltage battery and charging systems as part of their pre-purchase inspection.
- The 106 owner complaints logged across 2022-2024 include 5 alleged crashes and 4 reported injuries. These figures are unverified but suggest a pattern of real-world concerns worth discussing with a Porsche dealer and reviewing in full on the NHTSA complaints database before committing to a purchase.
