April 1, 2008 - Affording "superior overall crash protection among vehicles in its class," the all-new Infiniti EX35 has earned an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety TOP SAFETY PICK award for 2008, their highest honor. In describing the Institute's tough award criteria, “intended to drive continued safety improvements such as top crash test ratings and rapid addition of electronic stability control (ESC)," Institute president Adrian Lund praised the EX35 as a "leader in its class for state-of-the-art-safety," specifically mentioning Infiniti's inclusion of Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) - an ESC system - on every EX35. According to Institute research, ESC helps drivers maintain control in the worst situation - loss of control at high speed - lowering the risk of a fatal single-vehicle crash by about half and the risk of a fatal rollover crash by as much as 80 percent.

While the performance enthusiasts called it "more aggressive" than its BMW counterpart, the G Sedan's appeal was more than one-dimensional. The refined interior, rich materials and undeniable value were also instrumental in elevating the G Sedan to its place among Car and Driver's 2007 "10 Best" cars.

A "light steering touch" and "top-notch" was just some of the praise Car and Driver mentioned when naming the Infiniti M45 Sport its favorite for the second year in a row in its Luxury Sport Sedan Comparison. Matched up against no less than the BMW 550i, the Lexus GS450h and the Mercedes-Benz E550, the M was triumphant in braking, and won raves for being quick on its feet and providing top?notch feedback. Also cited was an interior with "lots of room" and a "perfect" seat-to-pedals-to-wheel relationship. Making this feat even more noteworthy was the fact that the Infiniti M did not have the luxury of major updates since the last test, unlike its competitors. Once again, Infiniti has proven the power of vibrant design.
