Review: Infiniti Q50S Red Sport 400

comments
Mention Maserati to people who aren’t enthusiasts and they will oh and ah that thing to infinity. But I don’t really understand Maseratis. Sure, they are great-looking cars, but all the Maserati sedans look kind of alike to me. They are also notoriously unreliable and very expensive to maintain and repair. Let us not even discuss their depreciation. Personally, every time I see…

First Drive: 2022 Infiniti QX55

comments
Infiniti is rolling out some fresh machinery, and the first one up is the QX55. It’s a coupe-ified version of the QX50 crossover. And those are selling well right now. Can Infiniti bite into some of that luxury/premium coupe crossover market space? It’s a strong… maybe, from us on this one. [Disclaimer: Infiniti dropped off…

Infiniti dropped the 2022 QX55 off at my house for a visit so I could check it out. There was no driving allowed but I was able to crawl around it a bit and take in the styling. I’m not sure this one is for me, but I can’t make a full opinion on it…

I jumped into one of Infiniti’s sedans earlier this week after hearing something atrocious and had to experience it for myself. A brand new 2020 model Q50 in a beautiful pearl white paint job sat in the company’s section of floor at the LA Auto Show. Infiniti turns 30 this year, and to celebrate, they…

Each winter I go with my family to southern Florida. One week of thawing out there allows us to get through New England winters without mental side effects. One of the biggest challenges of each trip is finding the right rental vehicle. It’s needs to be spacious and comfortable, but also appeal to my own…

Review: 2018 Infiniti QX30
/

comments
The Infiniti QX30 is not an Infiniti. It’s not even a Nissan product. It is a Mercedes disguised as an Infiniti, and that disguise is pretty well done, at least on the outside. One would think that any company that would take a Mercedes-Benz product and badge-engineer it as their own would have a winner…

2018 Infiniti Q50 RedSport 400: The Thinking Man's Alfa Four Cheese?

It was damn near 100 degrees in Nashville, Tennessee last week when we were there to drive the newly redesigned 2018 Infiniti Q50. More than the heat, however, was the humidity. Some folks in attendance were okay with the humidity, but being that I live in the desert, it was borderline deadly. With a “feels…

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybzAix2ncp0&ab_channel=TheHooniverse[/youtube] If you have a modern car company, you need to have a compact crossover in your lineup. Infiniti is ready to do battle with their own entry, which isn’t fully their own. It’s the 2017 Infiniti QX30 and it’s hiding Mercedes-Benz bits under its skin. It’s that very skin, however, that will help set…

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkBCmUjcmzg[/youtube] This car is incredibly important to Infiniti, as it’s the best selling vehicle for the brand… that means this updated version has to be good. Enter the 2016 Infiniti Q50S Red Sport 400. It’s the version we recently got to sample, and that three-digit number at the end of the name relates to the…

Q70 Hybrid: A Review for Infiniti Naysayers

So I realised that I, at 34 years of age, had never driven an Infiniti. Like hangliding and menage-a-trois this was in danger of becoming another life box destined to be left unticked. No way was I going to let this happen. The very helpful Infiniti representative was rather proud of their independence from Nissan,…
