The 2022 Infiniti Q50 AWD Sensory Is A Likable & Flawed Premium Sports Sedan

[@theredline]

The Infiniti G35 was one of the most beloved sports sedans of its time nearly 20 years ago. It's sad to see how far the mighty have fallen and while the latest Q50 has some likable traits, this is a far cry from the excellent Japanese BMW the original model was back in 2002. Let's hope Infiniti has a successor planned.

[@texan903]

As for the exterior design, this car has stellar looks, a beautiful car. My issue is that it looks too similar to the Altima, particularly with the window controls, the instrument cluster and passenger side dashboard. For the price it commands, it shouldn't have so much similarity to the parent company lower end offering. I would look for a used version, unless I could find a solid deal on a new one.

[@ks-bg5uk]

I test drove the Acura and Genesis (2.2) at this price of 43k and their engines felt so much slower. The tech is older but you can put nav on the top screen and audio on the bottom which works well. The interior is still very comfortable compared to the others. The other brands didn't come with tilted steering. Also, the new 16 Bose system wasn't covered in this video which was the best sounding I tested at this price. I personally like the exterior styling. Lexus also is using an older model too for this price. I went with Infiniti. It's still a great car despite it's age.

Also if you dont care for all the current LED touch screens and want reliable traditional controls. For what it is today, its a great option for consumers.

They (Nissan) aren't making money. They aren't investing in Infiniti, which is sad. They've lost their way and there's no marketing towards their cars. Genesis doesn't market as much and they seem to do better. They're doin worse than Acura which is all awd premium cars. Acura at least has made some improvements to breathe some life into their car. They needa update this to compete more with the IS sedan, 3 series, up to 5 series (based on size and wheelbase), C class, G70, etc. They need to create a fan base again the way they did with the G35. Bring back a manual in the Q60 too. We'd love to see it. If they can't create a new platform, they should pull a Toyota and platform share with another manufacturer. They already collabed with Mercedes for the 2.0T motor, they can prolly collab with MB for a platform to save some money. I mean bring back a hybrid version into this, since all the craze is pushing hard with hybrids. Lexus has done good with hybrids. Lincoln has done ok. Mercedes has done ok with it.

[@sonson381]

I had a 2014, switched to a 2018. They have done nothing to update the Q50/q60 platform. It's 2022 and they all the look the same. Won't buy another Infiniti.

[@ned8249]

I saw the Q60 redline coupe in that beautiful red they do and it looked so good and sounded great. Infinity has so much potential over its rivals as far as making attractive cars they just need to do some updating!

[@Poolsolid2]

11:18 "F**k this car" 😂😂😂

[@brotherdubious]

Is Infiniti even trying anymore? This whole car should have been scrapped if this is the level of effort they put into it. The same can be said for Nissan at this point. The competition is SO much better across the board, especially with Genesis entering the fray.

[@naveenthemachine]

Infiniti is dead at this point. I wouldn’t say Lexus is any better except the is500

[@audiophanatic4331]

I had a 2006 G35x and it was the best vehicle I ever owned. Kept it for 10 years and was never in the shop except for routine maintenance.

[@papagrande2006]

i loved my 2019. saying its look is dated is just following along with the typical jargon. it looks fine

[@texan903]

It was the best looking at its 2014 inception. In 2022, it's still unmatched by the competition.

[@carlmuir6880]

"F*ck this car" .... Best comment ever and you clearly know it by not editing it out. But like 300hp and it takes TWO turbos on a V6? Come on Nissan/Infiniti. A NA V6 on a Camry can get 300hp. And so still no Android Auto?

[@realbeetlejuice]

why does a 3.0 twin turbo V6 engine produce only 300hp and 295lb-ft?

[@andrewSUN17]

I think it does at the crank, from what I have seen someone post, but the readings are from the wheel.

[@bergdorfgoodman2191]

This is still a top 3 car in the segment in my opinion. I think they can maybe use a new look because they haven’t did this since 2014 but other than that it’s pretty good.

[@tootsiejoon]

Yes, this car is a gem and everyone over looks it!

[@adibgoubran]

Nothing wrong with this car, it has everything you need in it’s class.

[@texan903]

Despite this car's competitors receiving at least one redesign during this car's existence, it still looks better than those cars, hands down. The standard trope is that it's outdated because critics are familiar with it. If no one knew it was new for 2014, it could've been introduced for this year and people would say it stands out.

[@FedFire8404]

I find the design to very sporty and modern, even though it is a few years old. Still looks good and will most likely be my next purchase if I can't find a deal on the AMG.

[@ftr911drvr]

The Lexus IS is just as bad honestly but it gets a pass 🤣 it's also crap but hey restyle it slightly on the outside and slap a Lexus badge on it, give it a super old V8 And transmission nows it's a KZbin trend 😬🤣

[@naveenthemachine]

At least the v8 sounds fantastic 🤩.

[@alexmalie4221]

Definitely in need of a refresh

[@drn13355]

I had a 2014 with the 3.7. I sold it when it hit 100K miles..and I miss it. Thing was so reliable. I literally did nothing but basic maintenance (tires, etc). One thing I gotta say the Bose system was damn good. Audio systems are hit or miss, but wow. It really floored me. And the seats were so comfortable.

[@GLA45Amg716]

I bought this car in 2014! So happy they never changed a thing

Lord they should just discontinue it at this point…

This is a DUMB article of PERSONAL choice. I have a 2015 Q50 S 3.7. And Will be trading it in for a new 2022 Q50 Red Sport. Always get compliments of how good the car looks .

I think the only people trashing it never owned or even driven one. can't beat Japanese reliability and styling.

[@kschrop]

I bought a 17 RS with 20k last year for 27k and Its fully loaded with lane assist which works pretty good. The tech manly used is BT, that's it. What am I missing in the tech world other than google and apple car play? Car is built solid, the motor is solid and is now being used in the new Z which says something. I just don't get all the bitching about tech?

300 hp from a twin turbo v6? That is pretty sad. Toyota,Honda and Buick had old non turbo V6's putting out that much HP.

[@nunayobiznass]

Nissan has this too.. in the maxima

[@damilolaakanni]

IMO, they should replace this TT V6 (this 300HP version) with either the 3.5 or 3.7. There's no point in making a TT V6 with 300HP when they have two NA V6 engines that make similar power numbers.

I have an Infiniti dealer near me. Next to it is an Audi, Porsche and Chevy dealer. Those have a small amount of cars on their lots. There is an abundance of Infiniti cars available on their lot. Sad.

[@btownjhawk]

This car shouldn't cost a penny more than $39k. You're very correct in saying Infiniti left it out to dry. It's not really competition for anything. Nissan as a company has had a really bad decade at the corporate level and their cars show it, esp with the Infiniti brand.

[@NileshR12]

The fact that this STILL doesn't offer ventilated front seats, multicolor ambient lighting, a digital gauge cluster, a Digital Key, & a Head-Up Display is so frustrating, especially the lack of ventilated or cooled front seats

[@oreocakester4307]

When it came out in 2014 I liked it. It's almost the same in 2022 and I still like it.

[@KamalNsouli]

3 box style sedans like this one don't have a "D" pillar, just an A, B, and C pillar. Also while most of the review and your opinions were spot on, I personally don't see the advantage of having a digital dashboard. Just another screen to go bad and need replacement one day. The standard dials do their job very well, and will most likely still work after 10 years.

[@RomanM803]

I can’t tell you that a most cars from late 2000s equipped with navigation system still works. I’m pretty sure the dash won’t need replacement if it was all digital.

[@Shaqshaq_pov]

I’ve always had love for this car especially when it first came out they just need to do a redesign change there Dashboard and transmission would be amazing car

[@michaelscott7706]

The Q50 is a great car. Bang for the buck for sure. Even the Luxe models.

Damn for a second i was like why did you upload a video from 2015, but then i noticed the Q50 has not changed a bit since 2014

[@Toldd1]

To be honest, I think the Q50 has aged so much better than any Mercedes or BMW in this segment. It is a timeless look.
