Not only is the 2018 INFINITI Q50 built to get you from point A to B — in style, we might add — but it is also designed to keep you safe along the way. Building on the long list of protection technologies the luxury brand is known for, the latest generation of the performance sedan delivers even more driving aid features to inspire confidence in both you and your passengers.
For starters, consumers can opt for an upgraded Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection that goes above and beyond your typical backup camera. Utilizing proprietary radars around the body of the vehicle, the system provides motorists with a 360-degree panoramic scan of their surroundings. So, not only will you be able to tell when you’re getting a little too close to the curb, but the intelligent CPU will also alert you of any other potential risk factors or obstacles in your way — including pedestrians, other vehicles, or rogue shopping carts in the parking lot.
To further impress, Blind Spot Warning and Intervention works similarly by relying on side sensors fitted for seeing past your line of vision. Not only does this function provide you with a second set of highly capable "eyes," but, in the event that you begin to drift into the next lane when it isn’t clear, your Q50 will autonomously adjust and re-direct you back to security.

When driving a sedan as sporty as the 2018 INFINITI Q50 it’s nice to know you can always stop on a dime — should you ever need to. Equipped with an advanced braking package, this high-performance car is safer than your average ride.
Fitted with four-wheel power-run vented disc units with the latest in ABS, this platform handles well under pressure. Regardless of the road surface or driving conditions, the system intuitively monitors operator inputs when damping pressure is applied. By autonomously adjusting the hydraulic valves, it ensures that all tires maintain consistent tractive contact with the pavement in order to prevent uncontrolled skidding.
To further impress, an innovative Stop Assist feature utilizes a sensor unit to analyze the velocity of other vehicles traveling ahead of you in your lane. If the intelligent CPU detects that you are getting too close, it will warn you with an audible chime. In more severe situations, the Q50 will automatically engage halting to either avoid a collision or, at the very least, reduce the speed of impact.
