How it scores for you10 scores
Head-turning design and a serene, first-class cabin at a mainstream-luxury price - shop later builds, as early ones logged electrical gripes.
Recalled about as often as cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); 5 of its 9 recalls were serious. About 8% 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. Adjusted -3 points for its wider reputation.
5-star overall NHTSA crash rating (frontal 4, side 5, rollover 4).
About $3,500 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 14% of cars we track.
34.9 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 82% of other SUVs we track.
Spacious first two rows and a big 34.9 cu ft hold; the optional third row is a kids-only afterthought.
Composed and confident but tuned for luxury; the 3.5T moves it briskly without ever feeling sporting.
Elegant 14.5-in infotainment, strong ADAS suite, and a cabin design that became the brand's calling card.
Sumptuous materials and a hushed, cushioned ride - the Bentley-adjacent styling is backed by real refinement.
Luxury brands like Genesis tend to lose value faster than average.
Rated to tow 6,000 lb; all- or four-wheel drive available.
