2015 Infiniti Q50 Wins the Ritvo Design and Elegance Award

The New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA) has notoriously high standards, especially when it comes to honoring Gene Ritvo, a photographer who had a keen eye for excellent design. These exceptional standards made it all the more exciting when NEMPA decided to give its Ritvo Design and Elegance Award to the 2015 Infiniti Q50

Q50 Awards

The Q50 has played an important role within Infiniti’s brand since it was introduced in 2013. The sedan had a more aggressive look than Infiniti had given its cars. It was a slight gamble, but the company was willing to take a chance on its double arch grille, LED headlights, and crescent-cut C-pillar.

The gamble certainly paid off. Buyers liked the look so much that Infiniti used many of the Q50’s innovative design elements in future vehicles. By the time it won the NEMPA award in 2015, Infiniti and its fans already knew that they had something special. Still, it’s always nice to get recognized by an organization that takes design so seriously.

IIHS Names the 2015 Infiniti Q70 a Top Safety Pick

Few things are more important than a vehicle’s safety features. You trust your car to keep you and your family safe in all kinds of driving conditions. That’s why it’s always good to hear that Infiniti has earned top accolades from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS).

Recently, IIHS gave the 2015 Q70 sedan a Top Safety Pick+ rating. This is the highest honor a vehicle can get from IIHS. When a vehicle has received this level of support from IIHS, you can trust it to keep you safe on the road. There are several features that put the Q70 into the Top Safety Pick+ category, including the car’s:

  • Forward Emergency Braking
  • Predictive Forward Collision Warning
  • Rear Collision Warning with Autonomous Braking

These technologies offer significant improvement over previous safety features. Forward Emergency Braking, for instance, scans the road ahead and alerts you when it expects an obstacle. It really makes sure that you pay attention by giving you audible and visual signals. While the system warns you of an approaching obstacle, it also applies partial braking that slows the vehicle. The amount of braking applied by the system slowly increases to help you avoid a crash.

You never know what will happen when you’re out on the road, so it always helps to drive a car like the Q70 that will tell you how to avoid danger.
