The Infiniti Q50 reviews for crash tests are not particularly informative, as it has not been comprehensively rated by the NHTSA but did achieve a full five stars in that agency's rollover test. Over at the IIHS, the 2022 model was the last to receive a partial evaluation. It scored Good in four crashworthiness tests, but its headlights were rated as Marginal.
NHTSA safety ratings are not available at this time.
As standard, every Q50 car comes with six airbags: dual frontal, side-impact, and curtain airbags. You also get a rearview camera, rain-sensing wipers, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, traction control, tire-pressure monitoring, intelligent cruise control, hill start assist, forward-collision alert with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, and blind-spot intervention.

Thus far, the current crop of Infiniti Q50 models seems to be exhibiting good reliability although the last recalls issued applied to the 2021 model year and there were three of them. Issues were related to a steering knuckle or rear axle housing that may deform, engine stalls, and a blank backup-camera display. The 2022 and 2023 models were recall-free at the time of writing.
The Q50 comes with a basic warranty for four years/60,000 miles and a powertrain warranty that provides coverage for six years/70,000 miles; both of these are longer than several other rivals in this segment. Four years of roadside assistance are also included with no mileage limited. Besides all of this, Infiniti has added three years of complimentary scheduled maintenance to the deal.
