ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Infiniti Qx60?
The 2025 Infiniti QX60 represents a meaningful step forward from the 2024 model year. The Safety Index rose from 87/100 in the Strong band to 90/100 in the Exceptional band, a 3-point gain that pushed the vehicle into a higher performance tier. The index breakdown tells a specific story: crash protection contributed 61 of a possible 70 points, avoidance technology scored a perfect 10 out of 10 reflecting standard-equipment forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control, and the defect record component delivered 19 out of 20 points, anchored by just one recall campaign this model year. That single recall targeting the front brake caliper across shared Nissan and Infiniti platforms is the one active safety concern on record. The 5-star overall NHTSA rating, combined with the 16 percent rollover risk figure and the No Tip dynamic result, rounds out a crash-test profile that is genuinely strong rather than merely adequate. The 14 unverified owner complaints, with zero alleged crashes or injuries, do not currently weigh against the index in a material way.
