2015 INFINITI Q50 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.7L 6cyl 7A)

I leased the 2015 q50s in June and I live in NYC. I've had 4 flats thus far, and at 400 dollars a pop I am more than angry about it. I am trying bridgestone tires this time, hopefully they work better Other than that the car is nice, although the ride is noisy My passengers always seem cramped, but the driver seat is comfortable

What happened to Infiniti

This current lease with Infiniti will be my 17-20th years of driving an Infiniti. This car is an absolute disappointment. I had to get premium just for leather seats. The non leather are very uncomfortable. The steering, braking were changed. Car is all over the place and braking is also more powered. What happened to the stiff steering and braking. Pick up is not as good. If you take great pleasure in driving as I do, this car is not for you. It is not a driving experience at all. Way too many distractions. Not driver focused. For example, the console is not facing driver. It's difficult to see radio, back up camera. You have to press too many buttons to get what you want. I like to put on radio and see stations not have to press a button to see what I want. I like climate control as well to see it not have to play with buttons to see it. Too many distractions if you live to drive. Can't shut off top screen with navigation. The leather seats are comfortable and good quality, but to pay the high price they charge is it worth it.

2015 INFINITI Q50 Hybrid Premium 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl gas/electric hybrid 7A)

Definitely is totally different to drive a Hybrid car, you will feel in the pedal, but when you want power, you have 360hp right in there, it is super fast car, very economical, you get 32 miles per gallon easy, it is a luxury nice experience, just got it a week ago, I will recommend, specially with all the incentives and some free tolls for having a hybrid car, nothing to lose, worth to try

Car is wonderful to drive. Technology is nonreliable poorly designed.. It takes 3-4 minutes for apps to load on start up- seems ok but during that time you can not turn radio on or off or change channels or volume. The back up camera lines do not work during app loading. The telephone connection for apple is constantly stopping Now I can't make any calls and am told I need to await a update and have no telephone with no time to correction they tell me the car was designed for apple technology but apple was not ready and they put microsoft in as a last resort- TERRIBLE In addition with poor design of left stalk it rotates off of auto light on turn signaling leading to possibility of either leaving lights in or alarm going off with stopping engine I was able to end my lease early and trade out of car. Now have jaguar f pace. Technology works and car is great to drive. Infiniti had zero tolerance to scratches etc. attempted to bill $15 for scratch! Stay away

Let me begin by saying I had leased a G37x prior to my Q50 AWD that I adored. Sure, the styling was 7 years old and it def. needed a refresh, but re-designing a car should be a step forward, not two back. Beyond a few first world gripes, I never had a single issue with the G. I don't really know where to begin with the Q50 in terms of what I didn't like, so I'll start out with the positives: 1. It was fast. Stoplights were its best friend. The sound that engine made as it sang through the gears was fantastic. 2. The exterior styling was spot-on! It looked expensive, and people thought it was an aspirational type car. The paint held up and shined nicely. 3. I paid practically nothing to lease it- 0 out the door, 39k/39 mo, $270/mo 4. Upon return, there were no squeaks, rattles or real wear to the car Negatives: 1. In the first 600 miles the dual screens became possessed by ghosts. They had to be replaced twice throughout the 3 years I had with the car. There were times when the system would just reboot out of the blue, requiring a restart to get the controls functional again. The car decided if and when the backup camera was going to come on. Both times the car was out of commission for a month, which made me happy because the loaner was always something that WASN'T a Q50 2. The steering felt like it was shot up with Novocain, and this isn't the drive by wire steering either, just the standard rack. 3. The seats were "synthetic leather" aka vinyl, and although high quality, it was no where near the quality of genuine leather. Just a flat ugly matte finish. The rest of the interior had relatively high quality controls, but the chrome trim did start peeling from the window switch which infuriated me. 4. The rear brakes needed replacement at 25k miles! ...Read the other review about the guy who went through the same thing. My story is exactly the same. Found and ind. shop to replace them for $150, so not a huge deal. They were so bad though, they ate through the rotors. 5. Winter safety- This is a big one. The G37x was a stalwart in the snow. It wouldn't budge. The Q50 almost caused several crashes, one in particular driving down a mountain on a road trip to South Dakota, where it spun out 3x doing 360 spins like an Olympic champion! Maybe it was crappy tires from the factory, but the tread depth was still 5/8th when I turned it in, so it wasn't from wear or lack of maintenance. 6. I can't speak for the Bose system, but if you happen to end up with the Q50a that has a base sound system, be prepared to be blown away by your friend's 97 Cavalier. I had to install a subwoofer because it was so godawful. 7. It feels like a regression of a formerly great vehicle. In the 29k miles I had that car, I rotated the tires every 7k so I wouldn't be stuck with a replacement bill, but only had the oil changed twice. It never left me stranded and I beat on that car every single chance I got. Sometimes, because I hated it so much, I'd just sit and hit the rev limiter while it was cold to warm up quicker. In terms of drivetrain reliability I doubt a well taken care of example will cause much grief. Mine will probably need an engine replacement before 100k. All in all, I wouldn't buy one unless I got it for a song.
