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.

Should not be considered a luxury car

We traded our 8-year-old 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe turbo in for this car. The Hyundai Santa Fe that was 8 years old had better features was more comfortable better engine than this so-called luxury car. We traded in because we were concerned about the engine even though it only had 43,000 miles on it. The infinity is a name only I would not suggest it. There is no pep to the engine. The engine is loud as is my Nissan so apparently they are having a difficult time figuring how to make an engine. The car does not come with a wireless Android play. It only comes with wireless Apple. There is no heated steering wheel. No HUD. The seats are very uncomfortable. No heated seats in the back. Again I base this off of an 8 year old Hyundai Santa Fe turbo that had all of these features other than the Android carplay or Apple carplay cuz it was too old. The lane assistance does light up but only beeps on occasion. Deposits are the car itself looks very sharp. The interior looks very nice. Good size SUV. We were thinking of an Audi or a Lexus. We didn't like the look of the Audi at all in the Lexus was a little bit out of the price range. If you look at it Infinity qx50 I would drive multiple cars before even considering buying it. Way too many negatives for the price range.

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

Beautiful styling, but a bit confusing dash electronics. Good performance. Comfortable interior, especially the well bolstered seats.
