Overall Ratings
- Such an improvement to an already remarkable sedan. More power, more fuel efficient and just as much luxury as we've come to expect from Infiniti.
8.8 / 10
Dynamics
9.0 / 10 Engine Performance- V6 now revs higher, makes more power and uses less fuel.
9.0 / 10 Transmission Performance- The five-speed's ability to match revs when manually downshifted makes it a standout.
9.0 / 10 Brake Performance- Fade is not an issue, pedal feel is excellent and stops from 60 mph take just 112 feet.
8.0 / 10
Steering Perfomance- Ratio and feedback are right on, but the vehicle's speed-sensitive steering assist needs a little sorting.
9.0 / 10 Handling- Front-end grip borders on the remarkable, while body control and balance are superb.
9.0 / 10 Fun-to-Drive- One of the most fun sedans you can buy.
7.8 / 10 Comfort
7.0 / 10
Ride Comfort- The suspension tuning on the G35 Sport is just too firm.
8.0 / 10 Wind Noise- Well-hushed even at triple-digit speeds.
8.0 / 10 Road Noise- Not a problem even with large tires.
8.0 / 10 Front Seat Comfort/Space/Access- Seats are well shaped and properly adjustable.
8.0 / 10 Rear Seat Comfort/Space/Access- Rear-seat headroom has been shaved a bit, while there's a little more knee room thanks to a more careful carving of the door panels.
8.0 / 10 Driving Position- It's very good, but some more steering wheel adjustment would be nice.
8.3 / 10 Function
9.0 / 10 Headlight Illumination- Bright and well distributed.
9.0 / 10 Visibility- Large glass area and properly placed mirrors.
8.0 / 10 Instrument Panel Layout- Instruments are clear and concise, but the blue trim feels downmarket.
9.0 / 10 Climate Control System Layout- Big buttons and a couple of well labeled knobs keep things simple.
9.0 / 10 Audio System Layout- Big buttons and a couple of well labeled knobs keep things simple.
9.0 / 10 Secondary Control Layout- Everything is exactly where it should be.
7.0 / 10 Interior Storage- On par with other vehicles this size.
8.0 / 10 Standard Cargo/Trunk Space- Good size trunk for the class.
8.0 / 10 Maximum Cargo Space (ease & amount)- Good size trunk for the class.
7.0 / 10 Cupholders- There are two and they're average.
8.7 / 10 Design/Build Quality
8.0 / 10 Exterior Design- Very much the same car as its predecessor, only better.
9.0 / 10 Interior Design- Interior design is the most meaningful improvement over its predecessor.
9.0 / 10 Interior Materials- Real aluminum trim is not only standard, it has been textured to resemble a fine, handmade Japanese paper called Washi.
9.0 / 10 Interior Control Tactile Feel- Everything has a feeling of heft.
9.0 / 10 Squeaks & Rattles- The new chassis is 40 percent stiffer.
8.0 / 10 Panel Fitment & Gaps- A well built car that still trails some of its competition in fit and finish.
