Worth knowing

  • 2014: owner complaints spike (169, mostly the steering).
  • 2015: owner complaints spike (126, mostly the transmission).
  • The dual-screen infotainment feels dated, and the steer-by-wire system on some cars feels numb.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Look for a 3.0t Premium or Luxe from 2016 on: the twin-turbo V6 delivers 300 horsepower, and these trims add a sunroof and heated seats over the 2.0t. AWD is widely available.

On the test drive

On a hybrid, ask for a battery health check. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: standard from 2020, optional from 2014.
  • Adaptive cruise control: optional from 2014, never standard in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.

Prices are typical dealer and private asking prices from used listings, collected in September and October 2026, for an average-mileage car. Years with too few listings are estimated from nearby years. Crash ratings, recalls and owner complaint counts come from NHTSA public records.
