I leased a Q50S AWD Hybrid in Nov 2013. The first couple of months I had problems with the Infiniti Connection technology that even the dealership couldn't figure out how to fix. Since then it has been a very pleasant experience. The recent addition of the inTouch apps is nice. The handling and cornering is the same if not better than BMW 335. In Sport mode the acceleration is awesome and the paddle shifters are very responsive. When accelerating from low speed in standard or eco mode the transmission appears confused which gear to shift to first and sometimes fails to respond properly to the driver's foot on the gas pedal.

This car is awesome. I have owned this car for almost three years. I now have 159k miles (I drive a lot for work). Literally the only repairs I have done except oil changes were a front ball joint and brakes. That is pretty good considering the mileage and FYI don’t go to Infiniti dealers to get repairs done other then oil changes(run about $60). This car drives just like it should just took on a vacation over 1100 miles one way. Got over 475 miles on a tank mind you this car has AWD and 360 hp. Mind you this car is fast it can do 0-60 in 4.8 seconds what other cars can get that mpg and go this far on a tank of gas? None absolutely none. Also my car has the deluxe touring package this car can literally drive itself. This package consists of adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, around view camera, blind spot, adaptive headlights, auto-dimming mirrors, parking sensor front and rear and navigation. I would never own another car ever without all these driving aids. I have owned 3 Infiniti’s and you better believe I will keep this thing until the wheels falls off. There is no other car I would rather have and drive everyday. This car is awesome In the snow. My only complaints are when driving in stop and go traffic the car can be annoyingly jumping going from electric mode to gas mode. It’s not the smoothest but luckily I don’t drive in those conditions very often. Update: Traded car for another. Got a great deal on a one owner with 49k miles.

Finding a used treasure

I gave up a G35 for the mileage benefit of a fully loaded Nissan Altima Hybrid, which I rode for 6 years. I returned to Infiniti in desire of muscle, but having been spoiled by the MPG of the Altima Hybrid. Purchasing the Q50 Hybrid Sport AWD at ~33% discount to its new cost after just 11,000 miles, I was able to return to the sporty comfort of Infiniti giving up just 5mpg and gaining updated controls and muscle. Two weeks into ownership, I find myself, enjoying the ride, comfortable on the road, driving at 65mph, less in a rush to get anywhere, and knowing that with a tap of the pedal in sport mode, I can pass most all cars on the road and beat almost any car through the intersection as the red light turns green.

Driven this car for over 2 months. The poor reviews given by other sites is deserved. Frequent reboots of the computer, no sonar, useless directional lines on backup camera, over 50 computer upgrades in only 8 weeks…..think twice about this car. Having owned now for almost 3 years and ready to TRADE. Will not look at another infiniti. Continued computer problems, extremely bad tires, poor power delivery, back up directional lines still MIA most of the time. The most annoying of all is the slip light comes on when the weather is beautiful dry and warm. The car then losses power? They can't find the problem?

I have owned 4 Infinitis before this one. 2007 FX35(loved it), 2012 G37XS(loved it), 2012 FX35 with Deluxe touring (Everyone loved this one) 2013 M37XS (I traded in my 2006 550i manual transmission because my M37XS made it feel slow) and lastly my Hagane Blue Q50 Hybris sport. I was really excite about getting 31 MPGs on the hughway in this car because I drive alot. The closest I have been able to get is 28 MPGs on the highway using cruise control. I use a simple fomula MPG = (miles driven)/(gallons). The car would say one number but it was always high by almost 3 MPGs. If it said 29, I would calculate 26-26.5. Unacceptable. Every car I've owned I have been able achieve the posted MPGs.
