ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Infiniti Qx50?
The 2025 Infiniti QX50 marks a meaningful step forward from its immediate predecessor. The NHTSA Safety Index climbed from 89/100 in the 2024 model year to 91/100 here, moving the vehicle from the Strong band into the Exceptional band. That two-point gain is driven in part by a perfect defect-record sub-score of 20/20, which reflects the complete absence of recall campaigns for this model year. The crash-protection sub-score of 61/70 is consistent with the NHTSA star data: a 5-star overall rating anchored by a 5-star side result, with frontal and rollover each at 4 stars. The avoidance-tech sub-score is a full 10/10, supported by forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control all coming standard on this trim. The single consumer complaint on file, touching engine and fuel/propulsion system components, is an unverified allegation and carries limited statistical weight at this early stage of the model year. Taken together, the 2025 QX50 presents a cleaner federal safety record than the 2024 version did at a comparable point.
