INFINITI QX60 Named 2023 TOP SAFETY PICK+ by IIHS

   

INFINITI has again proven its commitment to safety by achieving the coveted Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) for the 2023 QX60 model. The INFINITI QX60 is a luxury midsize SUV that has undergone several upgrades to earn this award. The IIHS is one of the most prestigious organizations in the automotive industry, and receiving their highest rating is a significant achievement for any car manufacturer.

To earn the IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award, a vehicle must demonstrate excellent performance in six crashworthiness evaluations, including driver-side small overlap front, passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength, and head restraint tests. Additionally, it must achieve an advanced or superior rating for vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention, along with acceptable or good headlights.

The 2023 INFINITI QX60 passed all of these tests with flying colors, including the passenger-side small overlap front test, which the IIHS began rating in 2021. This test simulates a vehicle colliding with a stationary object on the passenger side. It is designed to assess the effectiveness of the vehicle’s safety features in protecting the occupants in a real-world scenario.

The INFINITI QX60 also boasts a sturdy body structure that can withstand high-impact crashes, protecting the passengers inside. Its advanced airbag system further enhances the safety of passengers. The vehicle’s head restraints and seats have been designed to minimize whiplash injuries in a rear-end collision.

The QX60’s excellent performance in these tests is due to its comprehensive suite of advanced safety features, including a forward-collision warning system, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. The QX60 has a strong body structure to withstand severe crashes, with several strategically placed airbags to protect the occupants.

Another noteworthy feature of the QX60 is its advanced lighting system, which includes adaptive headlights that can adjust their beam pattern to follow the curve of the road, enhancing visibility and reducing glare for oncoming drivers. The QX60’s headlights also earned an acceptable rating from the IIHS, which is a significant accomplishment, considering that many vehicles struggle to meet the institute’s stringent headlight requirements.
