How it scores for you10 scores
Genuine Italian drama and a Ferrari-built V8 option in an SUV body, dragged down by dismal reliability ratings, thirst, and freefall depreciation.
Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); 2 of its 9 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted -10 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $4,500 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 2% of cars we track.
20.5 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 34% of other SUVs we track.
Adequate rear space but less roomy than its footprint suggests.
Hydraulic-feel steering, athletic balance, and Ferrari-built engines up to a 590-hp V8 make it a driver's SUV.
FCA-derived infotainment and dated cabin electronics lagged rivals for most of the run.
Air suspension rides acceptably; cabin materials and quiet trail same-money Germans.
SUVs and hybrids usually hold their value better than average.
Rated to tow 6,000 lb; all- or four-wheel drive available.
