The pros and cons of my car.
The Infiniti Q50 is a luxury car but at an affordable price. It provides a smooth ride and the interior is very roomy. This car has a backup camera but doesn't have the sensor sound. I am not sure why you would put in one without the other. Car also does not get great gas mileage.

All in all this vehicle is great on gas.
The car is a very good driving car and great on gas. We were surprised with the amount of space it has in it for such a compact vehicle we can get the car seat and two other occupants in there and still be comfortable on a road trip. The trunk on it also is very spacious, once we laid the seats down we were able to stuff half of our house in it to move(not technically). All in all it is a very good vehicle and I love how it lets you know when maintenance is due on it and what kind. I would recommend this car to anyone.

Low maintenance car and is surprisingly spacious.
My car surprisingly comfortable. Even though it is a smaller sedan we fit a car seat and still have plenty of space. When purchased this car when it was a little over a year old and have not seen my major issues. Only down negative I have about this car is that it does not come with a spare tire.

It has tons of power, is a great looking car, and is comfortable
Infiniti Q50 is perfect. Powerful, safe, and plenty of room for my family. It has decent gas mileage, and drives smoothly. It is quiet, but quick.

Infiniti q50 base model review.
My 2015 Infiniti q50 is an amazing vehicle. It provides a very luxury feeling with sport performance. The interior is amazing for a 2015 base model and I get a smile every mile driving it. Great gas mileage. Super nice leather seats. The only flaw in the base model is not having a sunroof but I can live without it.

Best car ever. Love the details and performance.
Very comfortable and drives very smooth. Has heated seats which are good for winter time and good radio sound. I love the touch screen and the cameras to look at your surroundings. The car is gas efficient I don't seem to put gas too often to fill up the tank.

The comfort of the car and performance is second to none.
I have had no problems with this vehicle. The vehicle has been reliable and comforting to drive. Infiniti makes a car that as an owner I am proud to drive. Most people who have infiniti’s love the look and the performance. The car has best look and drive standards.

Hard to drive and always makes us carsick.
The car does not drive smoothly and the car is difficult to drive. My family is often car sick in the car. My brother is learning how to drive and we do not want him driving this car. The gas mileage is low and we are always refilling the tank. I wish we leased it because it does not last long.

Manual Gear box problem
I would have given this car 5 starts as a lovely looking car, nice drive, nice basic level of trim. However over 3 years old but only 50k on the clock and other day suddenly I could not get the car into Reverse. Managed to drive it to a garage but couldn't select Second either. Gear box taken out and was shown all the rods were bent. They were surprised a car of such mileage should have this problem but I was told it was a Mercedes gear box and they had seen others like this. I don'tdrive abusing the gears and do not rest my hand on the gear Knob when driving. Also found getting parts is difficult. Needed a brake disc Infiniti would not send one but another Nissan vehicle had the same discs on so could get them

Stranded with a flat tire!
I wish I was told by my salesman that this car doesn't come with a spare tire before I was in the moment of a tire going flat - and discovered THERE IS NO SPARE TIRE... I"M BIG MAD!!! Benita Griffin

Dual screens showing GPS, audio and climate.
The car is a beautiful luxury vehicle. I personally have a sunroof in mine and tan interior that I love. There are dual screens to show climate, audio and GPS navigation. One of the issues I have is that the car does not come with a spare tire. So if you were to get a flat, there is not a way to replace the tire. Luckily most tire places will recommend you get extended tires that allow you to drive 50 miles on a 'flat tire'.

The back-up camera sporadically does not initiate when car is put in reverse. The Maine dealership refuses to replace the unit with a NEW unit at time of purchase, as they said, would cost $8000.

Decent car, on the pricey side.
Car is not great on gas, eco mode is good. Sports mode is good for highways driving. Seats are comfortable. Navigation is not great, I use phone instead. Wish it had seat memory. Drives well and smooth. Trunk is on the smaller side. Leather interior cleans nicely.

Fun different driving modes make this vehicle fun to drive.
Issues include: intermittent computer issues. Positives: fun to drive, great gas mileage, looks sleek, powerful engine. I enjoy taking this vehicle on road trips because it has plenty of interior space, as well as spacious cargo space. The different drive modes also make driving enjoyable.

It's a decent car for the price and is moving in the right direction with hybrid technologies.
I like that it's a hybrid and that it has 350 horsepower. Not fond of the only 30 mpg for the hybrid. The Run flat tires are expensive to replace as well. But maintenance is low so not bad,

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Shawntee B.

The interior is sporty and very comfortable. The horsepower is outstanding and fast. The ride is smooth and literally glides on the road. The inside and exterior looks very expensive. The quality of the leather, instrument, and screen in the vehicle is exceeding expectations.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Shawntee B.

My external mirror do not automatically fold in when placed in park; I have to manually fold them, but it is a base model so have to expect that. The windows need to be tinted, so that I can feel a sense of privacy while driving especially at night and to protect my inside interior during the day.
