Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo Safety
NHTSA safety across every Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo model year we cover.
Across the 3 model years of the Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo we cover (2022 to 2024), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. 29 recalls have been issued across those years.
The Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo is a high-performance all-electric sport wagon occupying the very top of Porsche's Taycan lineup. Blending supercar acceleration with practical lifted-wagon packaging, it targets affluent buyers who want track-capable performance without sacrificing everyday usability. It competes in a thin but growing segment of premium electric performance wagons, and carries a price point that puts it firmly in ultra-luxury territory.
The 2022-2024 Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo lacks federal crash-test validation; NHTSA has not published star ratings for this variant across any of the three model years. This absence means no Safety Index score is available for consumer reference. Buyers thus lack independent data on how the vehicle performs in federal crash scenarios. Recall activity for the Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo has been significant. Porsche has issued 29 recalls for the model across the 2022-2024 period. This volume suggests ongoing safety-related corrections have been necessary for a vehicle with its sales profile. Owner complaints total 106 for the 2022-2024 model years. These include reports of 5 crashes, 2 fires, and 4 injuries. The reported fires, in particular, highlight concerns specific to high-voltage battery systems. While these complaints remain unverified allegations, they form part of the safety record. The vehicle's safety profile is therefore characterized by an untested crash performance and an active recall history.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally regard the Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo as one of the most refined and dynamically accomplished electric vehicles available, praising its sharp steering, composed ride, and premium cabin materials. Most find the wagon body style adds genuine practicality without compromising the driving experience. Some note the infotainment learning curve and the comparatively tight rear quarters for a vehicle of this footprint and cost.
- NHTSA has not crash-tested the Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo in any model year from 2022 to 2024, so there are no federal star ratings to guide your safety comparison against rivals.
- With 29 recalls across just three model years and a modest overall sales volume, this model carries an unusually high recall rate - verify that any used example you consider has all open recalls completed before purchase.
- Owner-reported data includes 2 fire allegations across the covered period. While unverified, fire incidents involving high-voltage EV battery systems are a category worth monitoring through NHTSA's complaint database as ownership numbers grow.
- If safety-test transparency matters to you, check whether Euro NCAP has tested the standard Taycan platform - that data, while not a direct substitute for NHTSA results on this specific variant, may offer some structural insight into the underlying architecture.
