The 2019 Audi Q3, the second generation of one of the brand’s best-selling models, has been named an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) 2019 Top Safety Pick+.
The Q3 has structures that exceled in IIHS testing, earning top "Good" ratings in all six IIHS crashworthiness performance evaluations. The car, standard equipped with Audi pre sense front, achieved "superior" ratings for the Front Crash Prevention tests.
When equipped with available Full LED projector headlights, the Q3 was named a Top Safety Pick+, which requires a "Good" passenger-side small overlap rating and a "Good" headlight rating. Full LED projector headlights are standard on Premium Plus and Prestige trims.
For the Audi Q3, the structure of the passenger space is comprised of hot-shaped steel components. The material is primarily used at the transition from the longitudinal members to the bulkhead, in the center tunnel, the sills, the A- and B-pillars, the roof frame and the rear longitudinal members. The hot-shaped components, which combine low weight with extreme strength, comprise 26% of the Q3 body by weight. The combination of materials lays the foundation for crash safety and rigidity.
