The keyboard shortcut for new tab in IE is Ctrl t the same as Chrome ,Opera , Firefox & most other browsers.
Quick tabs Ctrl Q if you have enabled it simply displays all your open tabs as thumbnails in a new tab & you can scroll down the page if you have lots of tabs.
Using Quick Tabs in Internet Explorer

Quick tabs only works if you have more than one tab open.
