How it scores for you10 scores
A genuine have-it-all GT — limousine comfort for four with sports-sedan agility — carrying period tech and the upkeep bill of a six-figure German flagship.
Reliability40

Recalled about as often as cars of the same model years; 1 of its 4 recalls was serious. 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.

Safety50

Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.

Running costs23

About $3,200 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 23% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility0

15.7 cu ft of cargo space — among the smallest of the hatchbacks we track.

Passenger space55

Vast room for exactly four; the sloping roof trims rear headroom and there is no middle seat.

Driving fun76

Startlingly agile for a full-size hatch; V8 and Turbo models are legitimately fast, and the chassis shrinks around you.

Tech45

The famous button-armada console and small screens read as thoroughly dated now; the early PHEV was ahead of its time.

Comfort80

Four thrones and a supple adaptive ride make it a superb long-distance car.

Value retention40

Luxury brands like Porsche tend to lose value faster than average.

Capability30

No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
