The 2014 Infiniti Q50 Models Have Earned a 5-Star Overall Safety Rating

Dec. 18, 2013 - PRLog -- Both the standard and hybrid models of the 2014 Infiniti Q50 have earned a 5-star overall safety rating (http://www.motorwerksinfiniti.com/2014-infiniti-q50-crash-test.htm) from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This is the highest-possible safety rating from the organization, and the recognition is sure to draw even more attention to the popular luxury 4-door in the Chicago area, which is currently featured at Motor Werks Infiniti of Barrington.

Providing buyers with important vehicle safety data, the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) of the NHTSA evaluates a vehicle’s performance in a series of critical crash tests. A team of expert technicians analyze the results of these tests, which include many assessments — such as rollover resistance — that go above and beyond the standards that are currently mandated by the federal government.

The stringent testing standards of the NHTSA are recognized throughout the automotive industry as some of the most reliable and accurate available. The 5-Star overall safety rating was given to all of the Q50 models, including the rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, gas-powered, and hybrid versions.
