4 cyl gas hog

I have owned this car for almost a year. I enjoy the ride especially on the highway. It has very good power all around , city and highway. I have had no problems at all with this car. My only dislike is the gas mileage. This car gets less gas mileage than my previous 6 cylinder q50. In the city I average 12 mpg, highway 23. My q50 did 16 city almost 30 highway. They need to dump the cat transmission. Too much slippage!! Overall I enjoy the car for comfort, power and interior room. Very comfortable. A real gas hog for a 4 cylinder variable engine.

I got this QX50 loaner while my 2020 Q50 is in for maintenance. It is a beautiful vehicle and I do not mind the infotainment system, guess I am used to it. Before my 2020 I had a 2014 Q50 3.7. This SUV moves compared to my other car a 2019 VW Tiguan. It accelerates quickly and definitely not a slouch. I drive always in sport mode so gas mileage is not important to me. Not sure which trim I got but it has all the cool safety features included. Now the really bad part and the reason I will never get this car. The CVT is annoying, makes a horrible engine sound. The RPM stays up longer before shifting. This reminded me alot of a previous car a 2007 and then 2009 Altima I had. I mean 14 years ago till now and the CVT is still around and still sucks. Maybe if it was not a 4 banger it might have been better, but I don't know. This had electronic shifter, weird to me and the manual mode is pointless. You need to use the paddle shifters, I cannot drive with both hands on the wheel, it does not feel right to me :). Another thing I noticed is the lines on the hood from the pillar towards the front. It looks like a gap, almost like the front end was hot and created a gap. both sides were like this so the hood looks open. This would have been a great SUV if it was not for the terrible CVT and 4 cylinders. Get it together Infiniti, leave the CVT for the Nissan brand if you cannot make it extinct.

New with battery replaced at 120 miles, dead again for the 4th time at 400 miles. Worthless

White Satin

My lady loves the QX50 and so do I. She named it White Satin. We are not SUV people but we love the vehicle. Beautiful inside and out. They need to update information center. The dash is basally the same as the Q50 otherwise it a good lease. I must point out that we've had the vehicle for a week. So far no issues. Was surprise it comes with a 4 cylinder turbo engine. Don't really like the CVT transmission but its ok. I thought it would have a 6 cylinder engine but it has nice responsive speed with the turbo egnine. So far we love the QX50 Luke.
