INFINITI Features Glossary For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
2018 infiniti q50 for sale kirkland auburn waWhen you’re looking for a luxury vehicle, you need it to have only the best in safety features. There’s never been a better time to check out INFINITI, which offers the highest-quality autos and all of the protection you could want.

Take, for instance, the 2018 Q50. This amazing vehicle offers a number of active safety features, including electronic stability control. You might have heard the term before, but you may not know quite what it means.

This safety feature is actually quite simple, though essential. It is a computerized technology that improves a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing the loss of traction. This means you will be less likely to skid or slide if you drive over ice, rocks, or debris on the road.
 

This is different from ABS technology, likely familiar to drivers of older vehicles. Instead, electronic stability adds to its predecessor, using more sensors and enhanced algorithms to provide a smoother, safer experience. Traction control only limits wheel spin, whereas this program can actually maneuver your car.

If you’re intrigued by the INFINITI Q50, stop by our Tacoma dealership today to take a test drive. You’ll fall in love with the vehicle, thanks to its luxurious feel and many safety features. 
2018 q50 for sale tacoma washingtonWhen you’re on the road, the safety of your passengers is paramount. Fortunately, INFINITI features a vast array of precautions to keep everyone in the vehicle well. Some of these specifications may be difficult to understand by name alone, since automakers often classify things in slightly confusing ways. However, we are here today to discuss and demystify one such addition to the 2018 Q50, the occupant sensing airbag.

Believe it or not, airbags are not inflated from compressed gas, but rather the products of a chemical reaction of sodium azide, or NaN3. Typically, this molecule is very stable. However, when it is heated, it will disintegrate and produce nitrogen.

Nitrogen as a gas is what causes your airbags to inflate. Sensors in the front of an automobile know if there has been a collision and trigger these safety mechanisms to deploy. This is all well and good for full-sized adults. How about for smaller folks or children, however?

This is where occupant sensing airbags come in. They are able to tell the size and weight of passenger and adjust direction or strength accordingly to safeguard against injuries. This is very 
important, because serious damage to smaller riders can occur if safety equipment deploys at full force.

The 2018 Q50 features occupant sensing airbags in addition to a number of other amazing amenities, so you can always travel with peace of mind. Stop by INFINITI of Tacoma today and take a test drive!

2018 infiniti q50 traction control in tacoma washington
You live in the Pacific Northwest. It’s rainy.

When road conditions are less than ideal, traction control (as seen in the 2018 INFINITI Q50) is a must-have. Its features kick in when the vehicle senses a disparity in the engine’s torque and the surface of the road.

Through the monitoring of tires’ road grip, brakes may be applied or the engine boost reduced. As its name suggests, the INFINITI’s traction control function provides an assist to drivers who may be facing suboptimal weather conditions or who aren’t yet used to the steering or braking of their vehicles.

Typically, each wheel is sensored, sending a signal to the engine and alerting the vehicle how to best proceed in the safest way, which can trigger a reduction in fuel supply. Autoblog states that today’s traction control features keep the pavement beneath your tires, propelling you forward. The result is that drivers can make better turns, keep their tires completely on the road and operate with peace of mind at all times.

Superior traction equals superior quality.
