Which Q70 does Edmunds recommend?
The Q70 is at its best with the V8, so go for the 5.6 Luxe trim. This version comes fairly well-equipped, so there aren't many options to consider. We like many features that come in the Sport package, but the package's 20-inch wheels and stiffer suspension penalize ride quality. If you want blind-spot monitoring, the only way to get is by ponying up for all of the Q70's advanced safety tech in the ProActive package. Unless you live in a climate with frequent snow, skip all-wheel drive to save some money at the dealer and the gas pump.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 INFINITI Q70 Sedan
Driving
7.5This is a genuine sport sedan. The V8 is big and burly, and the steering and brakes are effective. Much is outdated about the Q70, but performance remains a strength.
Comfort
7.0On the highway, the Q70's ride is calm and isolating, though imperfect surfaces can make the car feel jittery. The seating is spacious and plush. It's a pleasant car to be in, but not much more.
Interior
8.0The Q70's cabin has very good ergonomics overall. The dashboard and console wrap snugly around the driver. Even the standard-wheelbase model has generous rear legroom. The outdated tech interface is the main drawback.
Utility
6.0The Q70 generally underwhelms on the utility front, but good child safety seat features redeem it somewhat. If you don't care about child safety seats, the lack of small-item storage and a power trunklid might give you pause.
Technology
4.5If you're wondering why the Q70 rates relatively poorly overall, this section is the answer. Infiniti has largely left the Q70's touchscreen interface untouched during this decade, and its advanced age is readily apparent. The car's rivals, meanwhile, have decisively pulled ahead.
