Extraordinary highway cruiser. Loads of horsepower to effortlessly pass, refined and comfortable suspension, fantastic seating comfort, concert hall audio quality, and a real world 34.3mpg at an average speed of 77mph with a/c running. This vehicle is near ideal for rolling down the highway.

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.
Worst car I've ever owned

I had 2007 Infiniti M35 for 7 years and over 185,000 miles. The Bluetooth was useless, it went through brakes pretty fast and gas mileage wasn't great, but other than that it was a great car. So, when it was time to get a new car, I bought the first model year of the Q50 hybrid. Over the life of the car the drive-by-wire steering failed, the audio system never worked properly, the Bluetooth was useless, the transition from electric to gas was very rough, the gas engine would suddenly rev up while sitting at a stop light shaking the car, the car would actually speed up if you didn't push down on the brake hard enough, the car would shudder when accelerating out of a turn with neither gas nor electric engine knowing what to do and the mud flaps kept falling off. I participated in two Nissan factory studies on engine performance and the exhaust system, which really made me feel like I was driving the beta version of this car. After being told repeatedly "that's just the way the car was designed", I learned to live with all its deficiencies. I was planning on selling the car before 100,000 miles, but since it hadn't really held its value very well, I decided to just drive it into the ground. I didn't have to wait very long. At 101,806 miles, 1,806 miles beyond the warranty, the hybrid battery overheated and needed to be replaced. (I was one of 5 towed into the dealership that day with the same problem.) That "part" cost $12,000! With labor to install it, the total price was going to be $14,000. The appraisal I'd gotten from CarMax just 200 miles earlier was $11,000. Obviously it made no sense to repair it. The dealership, Infiniti of Montclair, had no interest in helping me and suggested I get an attorney to escalate the matter. Despite having owned and faithfully serviced Infiniti cars for the previous 11 1/2 years, Infiniti consumer affairs refused to buy the car back for a fair trade-in value or to even help out on the cost of the new battery. I wound up having to sell this $50,000 luxury automobile with 101,806 miles on it for salvage value. DO NOT BUY THIS OR ANY OTHER INFINITI PRODUCT.

The Least Reliable Luxury Sedan, Poor Quality ever

DON'T BUY! It is the least reliable luxury cars on sale today. I've had 2014 Q50 HYBRID for almost 2 years. I have been having many issues with the car's the steering system, handling, navigation, touchscreens, key-less entry and Bluetooth. Today, I had to bring my car back to the dealership again for DAS repair. The car started going to right by itself and started braking itself causing the risks of crashes. I am done with Infiniti.
