How it scores for you10 scores
Bargain running costs near $650 a year and available Super Cruise make a value-EV standout, once the battery-recall saga and steep EV depreciation are priced in.
Recalled somewhat less often than cars of the same model years; 3 of its 4 recalls were serious. About 10% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Limited history so far, so this score may move as more recalls are filed. Adjusted -4 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $650 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 97% of cars we track.
16.3 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 16% of other SUVs we track.
Flat floor and stretched wheelbase give surprising rear legroom for a small EV.
Instant torque and one-pedal driving are satisfying around town; FWD and eco tires cap the fun.
10.2-inch screen, wireless CarPlay, and available Super Cruise - unusual equipment at this price.
Quiet EV running and a compliant ride, but seats and materials are firmly economy-grade.
EVs have typically lost value the fastest.
No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
