The 2016 Infiniti Q30 was given five stars by the Australasian New Car Assessment Program. The standard low- and high-speed autonomous emergency braking and the active bonnet that protects the pedestrians definitely helped.

Good news for current and future owners.

How is everything measured ?? Do you have a link to an article on it or anything ??

You can find everything on ANCAP's own site: https://www.ancap.com.au/safety-ratings/infiniti/q30/fa65b3

It actually looks pretty bad from this frontal view in a side crash test but it probably didn't cave in as much as we think. Wish they have pictures of the car after it's been crushed.

That definitely looks bad but I'm agree it's just the view most likely. This is actually pretty impressive given body panels didn't go flying.

 

[Indiana Jones]

It's actually not that bad, doesn't seem like there is much foot-well intrusion in a frontal hit.

 

[InfiniteClass]

That looks pretty darn solid if you ask me

Seems like the Q30's worst performance area is the rear passenger whiplash where it received a score of poor. Overall, the areas affect on the dummy are green for "good".

 

[Zeus]

See now that scares me to read. rear passenger whiplash = kids. Kids are always in the back seat

Their head doesn't go above the headrest so they should be fine.

Exactly.

Even with a booster seat its not an issue. The most i've seen some kids get are right up to where the seat ends and the head rest starts but at that points its just the top of their head clearing that area. All they need is to be seated properly.
