2020 INFINITI Q50 3.0t PURE 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 7A)
8 of 10 people found this review helpful
The Q50S is a beautiful,fun car with plenty of "POP".Mine has 300 hairy chested turbo HP and I love it.Fuel consumption is OK.Ride is solid AWD and run flat 19" tires give a controllable safe felling ride.I get plenty of compliments on my shiny black finish. My only complaint is the lack of driver seat and steering wheel memory buttons.This feature was standard on the 2012 Nissan Maxima I traded and I miss it. PDC

Solid car but misses on a couple areas

Infiniti cars have a solid build quality with strong performance engines. My car is the Q50 Signature Edition. Comes with nicer black chrome wheels and sport seats. Interior is a relatively clean design with the exception of the center stack. Having two screens is not a problem - the problem is the two screens are two different finishes and one is touch screen and the other isn’t. Also, I bought the last year they didn’t include Apple Car play (started in 2020 models) so that is very limiting when using the underwhelming infotainment system with my phone. The drive train is strong but a mixed bag. The engine is superior. Good power, smooth acceleration, and reasonably efficient. As you will probably read elsewhere, the 7-speed transmission is a let down. Up shifts are not very smooth and down shifts are clumsy when not shifting yourself. Having driven BMWs for years, I don’t know why almost every automaker is not using the ZF 8-speed transmission. It is so much further ahead of the tranny in the Q50. Nissan/Infiniti needs to figure out their transmission execution. I know they love CVTs and are committed to that, but their torque converter trannys are a little disappointing. Suspension is good. My car has the Active Trace feature which is basically a poor mans torque vectoring (brakes the inside rear wheel to pull you through a corner). It actually works very well and causes this car to corner with confidence. Compared to any German counterparts, it is a great value. The lease deals on these are great! However compared to some of the other brands pushing up market like Kia and Mazda, the value proposition isn’t as strong as it once was 4-5 years ago. I would cross-shop this car with a Kia Stinger, Mazda 6, Volvo S60 or even a Nissan Maxima. Would I buy this car again? If the infotainment was upgraded and the transmission was different, I definitely would. Strong predicted reliability and a top notch service experience give you a piece of mind that few other cars can give you.

2020 INFINITI Q50 3.0t SPORT 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 7A)

This car is sweet. It has plenty of horsepower for a V6 turbo. The All Wheel Drive is a must in Northeast. The Q 50 Sport is loaded with added options. People stop & look at this car everywhere I go. Trunk is small for a car this size. My Dealer at Infinity Lynbrook in Long Island was great right up until contract signing. Then the final numbers changed dramatically, even though credit was excellent. Know your numbers!

2019 Q50 RedSport (Twin Turbo 400 HP) 5-yr review

Leased Car in March 2019 and while I have only 29K on the Odometer, the car has been an absolute pleasure to drive. Have changed the oil 3x (every 10k as per dealer). Changed Cabin filters at each 10K service. Changed Brake Fluid at 20K. Lack of Access to Apple Car Play a huge negative, especially that my 2018 Nissan Rogue has access to it. Also, needed to change tires at 23,000 miles and they were pricey at $400/per. That is it to date. Acceleration is fantastic. Need to be careful because you are well past the speed limit quickly. Brembo brakes definitely appreciated! Seats are comfortable and sound system is great. Bought my lease out in May of 2022 and have no regrets.

Ok first off there are people out there that will say - not on or with BMW, AUDI or Mercedes, the infotainment system is dated, the interior isn’t as nice. Well let me tell you what, I will take this vehicle over any of the other options out there. From a performance stand point it will run with or past most comparable vehicles in the segment. I now have 10k miles on mine which I purchased new in 9/20 and got one helluva deal. This is my second Infiniti. I love the look, performance, the tech and man does this car fly. Drive most of the time in Sport mode as I prefer the steering and handling of the car. However on the freeway it’s in Eco or standard mode and is just a pleasant car. I will say this, there is a good amount of wind noise on the freeway but to the haters, turn up the stereo system!! The Bose sound system is fantastic!!!! I highly recommend this car for anyone out there that wants a daily driver that has plenty of power to make you smile. Update I have now owned this vehicle since new for over 2 years. I currently have just shy of 29K and the only issue that has come up was a slight leak due to a body weld issue, the trunk was seeing water intrusion, went to an authorized Infiniti body shop and since then no further issues. The stock battery failed and created a no start situation that couldn’t be jumped had to be towed. These are things that could happen to any vehicle. I have also replaced the horrible OEM run flats and replaced with conventional Continental DSW06 Plus - fantastic improvement. While this model has remained unchanged for what seems like an eternity it is still a fantastic car, I am looking forward to seeing what Infiniti does long term as the Q50 is long overdue for an upgrade.
