- Red Sport 400's powerful engine

- Available all-wheel drive for all trims
Cons
- Cabin is showing its age
- Trunk is small, even for a luxury coupe
- Not as engaging to drive as most rivals
What's new
- New infotainment system
- New Edition 30 package celebrates Infiniti's 30th anniversary
- Upgraded interior materials for Q60 Red Sport 400
- Part of the second Q60 generation introduced for 2017
Based purely on exterior styling, you could argue that the 2020 Infiniti Q60 is the most appealing luxury sport coupe out this year. Balancing the right amount of bling with artful detailing and proper proportions, the Q60 easily stands out compared to more staid-looking German coupes.

Unfortunately, things start to go downhill after that. Inside, you'll find quality materials in some of the top Q60 trim levels, but the overall design looks tired and dated. Luxury buyers seeking a high-tech interior will be disappointed, for instance. Just this year, Infiniti finally got around to updating the car's dual-screen InTouch infotainment system. It now supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration and a Wi-Fi hotspot connection, but it's still dated and frustrating to use.
As for the sporty bits, the Q60's standard turbocharged V6 delivers effortless power and acceleration. But there is little evidence of the engine note, a key component of enthusiast driver satisfaction. For maximum performance, you'll want to go with the Red Sport 400 trim, which is more powerful and has a performance-tuned adaptive suspension. Still, it can’t quite match the level of fun you’d have in other luxury sport coupes.
Overall, the Germans know how to get the little luxury and performance details down best. The Audi A5/S5, BMW 4 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class are easy to recommend over this Infiniti. Unless, of course, you want eye-catching design or prefer to drive something different from what everyone else buys. In that case, the 2020 Q60 is worth checking out.
Which Q60 does Edmunds recommend?
If you're buying a Q60, we recommend the 3.0t Luxe trim level. It offers the most flexibility in terms of price and equipment. You can get the Luxe trim with everything Infiniti offers for the Q60 except for the top Red Sport 400's performance upgrades and optional ProActive package. We suggest avoiding this ProActive package on the Red Sport 400, if that's what you're getting, since it has a different steering system that completely lacks feel for the road and reduces the fun you'll have driving the Red Sport 400.
2020 INFINITI Q60 models
The 2020 Infiniti Q60 comes in three trim levels: 3.0t Pure, 3.0t Luxe and Red Sport 400. As the base model, the Pure offers a decent collection of features. The Luxe adds a premium stereo plus greater access to optional packages. The Red Sport 400 stands out with its powerful engine and a sport-tuned suspension. All Q60s are equipped with a seven-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is optional.
