ANALYSISHow safe is the 2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo?
No crash-test data exists for the 2022 Porsche Taycan Turbo, making its safety profile reliant entirely on recall data and owner complaints. The vehicle carries a "Moderate" burden designation, driven by four recalls and 78 owner complaints. Of particular note for this battery-electric vehicle is the concentration of safety issues within its electrical architecture. All four recalls concern the electrical system, with two specifically addressing the traction battery. One recall campaign targets the onboard charging system, and another the instrument cluster. This pattern is echoed in owner complaints, where the Electrical System alone constitutes nearly half of all unverified reports. The complaint database further includes two alleged fires and two alleged crashes. These remain unverified allegations, but they nonetheless represent specific incidents prospective owners should consider.
