2019 Q70 Safety

In recent years, the NHTSA has only tested limited aspects of the Q70, scoring it four stars out of five for both frontal crash and rollover tests. The IIHS provided a full set of best available "Good" scores for crashworthiness. In terms of crash prevention and mitigation, superior scores were achieved, and only the Latch child seat restraint system received poor gradings due to difficulty in accessing the restraints.

2019 Q70 Key Safety Features

Six airbags are included in the standard safety features on the Q70, including dual front, front side, and side curtain airbags. More advanced driver aids include around view monitor with moving object detection and front and rear sonar systems. To further enhance safety features, installing the ProACTIVE package adds predictive forward collision warning, emergency braking, intelligent cruise control, lane departure prevention, distance control assist and active trace control to name but a few. The standard list is somewhat limited, and thus makes the additional package quite necessary to bring this vehicle up to par with rivals.

2019 Q70 Reliability

Although no official recalls have been made for the Q70, numerous manufacturer communications have been released regarding potential engine component problems. A four-year/60,000 mile limited warranty is offered, as well as a six-year/70,000 mile warranty on the powertrain. J.D. Power gave the Q70 a reliability rating of average (3 out of 5) in the Vehicle Dependability Studies, while segment rivals tend to offer higher scores.
