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.

Buyer beware defects

I leased a beautiful red Q50 hybrid in October 2014. We live in Wisconsin. In January 2015, the steering froze due to arctic weather in Wisconsin 0 degrees. Dealer had car for over a month to repair. International Infiniti couldn't be bothered with replacing said defective car. Fast forward to January 2016. Guess what? The steering does not work again. Hmm. You need steering in all climates. Do not buy this car under any circumstance. Brakes do not stop well if you hit a bump. The electronics do not work properly. The fuel economy for a hybrid isn't worth the extra money. Infiniti should recall all of these cars until the defect is fixed. This car will kill someone.

I love this car just purchased it brand new, right off the lot. I drove a fully loaded 2008 infiniti G35 sedan before this one (now its my work car lol). I love infiniti's because they are reliable, fast, fun, and stylish! So far I've put 6k miles on it & it has been a dream to drive.. i mean infiniti really outdone itself this time. Everything is excellent (seriously), infiniti's version of the i-drive system is very simple , not too much of a learning curb at all. All the driving modes really help, i have the hybrid so i avg 32 mpg on gas with 354 horses :) .. no words can describe how great this car is, don't believe me? Go test drive one, the infiniti Q50 won't let you down .

I traded in my 2013 Accord 4 cyl with the q50 hybrid. I regret for my decision. The acceleration is uneven especially at lower speed and in the city. The transition from hybrid to gasoline is abrupt and feel embarrassed because even the passengers can feel it and questioned if there's anything wrong with the car. The acceleration is unpredictable at lower speed and there were many times, I felt the car lunge forward when I only step on the pedal just a little and other times, I had to step on it hard before it will take off. After driving for 5000 miles, I felt the car a lot heavier than the accord and the handling is not that much better which I expected more from a RWD.
