Porsche Taycan 4s Cross Turismo
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 is a performance-oriented electric sport wagon that blends the Taycan sedan's athletic DNA with a raised roofline, all-wheel-drive capability, and added cargo utility. Aimed at enthusiast buyers who want EV performance without sacrificing everyday practicality, it sits at the premium end of the electric wagon segment and competes on both driving character and brand prestige.
From a pure safety-data standpoint, the 2022-2024 Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo presents a mixed picture that shoppers should examine carefully before signing. NHTSA has not crash-tested this vehicle in any of the model years we cover, which means there are no federal star ratings or a MotorCaliber Safety Index to anchor a structural assessment. That is a notable gap for a vehicle in this price class, and buyers cannot rely on government crash scores to guide their decision here. What the federal database does show is a substantial recall count: 29 recalls across the 2022-2024 model years. For a low-volume, high-cost vehicle, that figure is high and reflects the complexity of a sophisticated EV platform navigating early production cycles. Recall categories in this segment typically involve software, high-voltage systems, and structural components, so shoppers should verify that any pre-owned example has had all open recalls addressed through an authorized Porsche dealer before purchase. Owner complaints total 106 across covered years, with 5 alleged crashes, 2 alleged fires, and 4 reported injuries logged. These are unverified allegations, but the fire-related complaints deserve particular attention given the sensitivity around high-voltage battery systems. None of the complaints resulted in a reported death, which offers some context, but the fire allegations warrant a close look at any relevant recall or technical service bulletin history. Bottom line: the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo is a compelling performance wagon, but its safety profile is incomplete without federal crash-test scores and carries a recall burden that demands due diligence.
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.
