2018 Infiniti Q50

[FiestaST]

Updated Q50.

The new Infiniti Q50 features refreshed exterior and interior design, and innovative technologies designed to empower and support the driver.

The enhanced sports saloon retains its sleek proportions and athletic stance, while establishing greater visual differentiation between model versions, including the performance-inspired 'Red Sport 400'. Through the Red Sport 400 grade, Infiniti's designers have brought the model in line with its 'designed to perform' ethos.

Changes to the interior blend artistry with innovation, with stitching and the use of authentic materials further elevating the level of craftsmanship inside the Q50. The Infiniti InTouch Services bring the future of in-car connectivity to the interior, while the inclusion of the brand's 'spinal support' seats ensures a comfortable space in which to spend time.

Innovative technologies empower and support the driver, while giving a glimpse into the automotive future. The Q50 is the first Infiniti vehicle to package all of the company's driver support technologies under the Propel Assist banner (implemented in Europe as of model year '19). ProPILOT is the platform upon which all future Infiniti autonomous drive support technologies will be based.

The Infiniti Q50 delivers an empowering and rewarding drive thanks to innovative powertrains, including the award-winning 3.0-litre V6 twin-turbo engine from the new and exclusive 'VR' powertrain family, which was recently named on the prestigious 2017 Ward's '10 Best Engines' list.

The 2022 Infiniti Q50 Might Just Be The Oldest Looking Car You Can Still Buy New

Infiniti's sedan has been a model of consistency for the last eight years, in all the wrong ways.

What’s the oldest looking new car on sale in America? Not the oldest car, mind you, but the oldest looking one? The kind of car you find yourself following on the highway, thinking “that’s in really excellent condition for such an old Sequoia, its owner must be really dedicated,” before you realize Toyota still sells the thing and the one you’re behind probably rolled off the lot two months ago.

The Infiniti Q50 would be a very good answer to this question. It’s old but not that old; there are more ancient cars still on sale today, like the GMC Savana. But the Q50 looked about five years out of style at the time it entered production in 2013, so that hasn’t helped things. Our old friend Patrick George reviewed one when it launched, calling the interior “maybe too conservative” and questioning whether it had a soul.

The Q50 is inexplicably still on sale today, and I know this because Infiniti has just put out a press release about the 2022 edition. As far as I can tell, the only significant upgrades for the new model year are the inclusion of wireless Apple CarPlay and the Bose Performance Series audio system being standard on every trim level. That’s it.

From the outside, the Q50 looks exactly the same as it did last year, which is exactly the same as it has for eight years now. Usually cars receive a midcycle refresh halfway through a generational lifespan, tweaking a fascia or headlight cluster or grille or something to at least look a little different than it used to, if not more modern. A nip here or tuck there that breaks familiarity. Infiniti has never done this with the Q50.
