2026 INFINITI QX60 Earns IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ — Again
When it comes to luxury SUVs, confidence isn’t optional—it’s expected. And once again, the 2026 INFINITI QX60 delivers. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has awarded the QX60 its highest honor, TOP SAFETY PICK+ for 2025, reinforcing what families and drivers already know: this three-row luxury SUV takes protection seriously.
Even better? This marks five consecutive years of IIHS recognition for the QX60 since its relaunch—proof that this isn’t a one-year wonder. It’s a pattern.
What TOP SAFETY PICK+ Really Means
IIHS doesn’t hand out gold stars for participation. To earn TOP SAFETY PICK+, a vehicle must excel in some of the industry’s most demanding crash and prevention tests. For 2025, those standards got even tougher—especially for second-row passenger protection.
The 2026 QX60 met or exceeded every requirement, including:
- Strong performance in front, side, and moderate overlap crash tests
- High marks in pedestrian crash prevention
- Acceptable or better headlights across all trims
- Translation: safety isn’t limited to the driver’s seat—or to the top trim level.
- Standard Safety That Actually Comes Standard
The QX60’s confidence starts with a thoughtfully engineered structure and is backed by a robust suite of standard driver-assist and safety technologies, including:
- Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
- Predictive Forward Collision Warning
- Blind Spot Warning
- Lane Departure Warning
- Rear Automatic Braking
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- No gimmicks. No upcharges required just to feel secure.
- Advanced Technology for Real-World Driving
For drivers who want even more situational awareness, the QX60 offers available innovations that support attentive driving without replacing it, including:
- ProPILOT Assist 2.1
- 3D Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection
- Invisible Hood View
These systems work together to enhance visibility, reduce stress in traffic, and make everyday driving feel far more intuitive—especially in tight parking lots or busy highways.
Part of an Award-Winning INFINITI Lineup
The QX60 isn’t alone. It joins the INFINITI QX80, which also earned a TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating earlier this year. Together, INFINITI’s core SUVs represent a consistent focus on advanced safety, refined luxury, and confident performance.
A Sales Leader for a Reason
There’s a reason the QX60 continues to dominate INFINITI’s lineup. In 2025, it accounted for approximately 60% of the brand’s total sales volume, supported by strong third-quarter gains and sustained double-digit growth.
In short: people aren’t just admiring it—they’re choosing it.
The Takeaway
The 2026 INFINITI QX60 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award isn’t about bragging rights. It’s about peace of mind—for families, commuters, and anyone who expects their luxury SUV to work just as hard on safety as it does on style.
