5 reasons to buy the 2022 Infiniti Q50

1. Roomy and comfortable interior

The 2022 Infiniti Q50 features a spacious cabin with room for five. Its whole interior is inviting, with comfortable and supportive front and rear seats. Headroom for front passengers measures 39.5 inches, with 36.8 inches for rear-seat occupants. There are 44.5 inches and 35.1 inches of front- and rear-seat legroom, respectively. With this kind of room, even taller passengers won't have difficulty getting in and out of the car, and they won't feel cramped during long trips.

2. Powerful engine

Performance is another compelling reason to buy the 2022 Infiniti Q50. All models are powered by a twin-turbo 3.0L V6 engine paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available on select trims. On the base trim, this engine generates 300 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, while a more potent configuration produces 400 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque (Red Sport 400 trim only). The zero-to-60-mph time for the base trims is 5.0 seconds, and 4.5 seconds for the Red Sport 400 trim (according to the manufacturer, when new).

3. Standard tech features

The 2022 Infiniti Q50 is equipped with numerous tech features to keep your passengers connected and entertained. It comes standard with an infotainment system featuring one eight-inch touchscreen and one seven-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto integration. Navigation is also standard, as is satellite radio and Bluetooth® connectivity. As far as sound is concerned, all trims have a 16-speaker Bose® premium audio system.

4. Luxury experience

Since it's part of a luxury vehicle division's lineup, it makes sense that the 2022 Infiniti Q50 offers features and amenities that are not always standard on other cars. Starting with leather upholstery, heated front seats with memory functions, and a heated steering wheel, you'll feel a sense of luxury and elegance every time you get in the Q50. You'll also enjoy the auto-dimming and power-folding mirrors, as well as the sunroof and dual-zone automatic climate control.

5. Driver-assistance technology

The presence of many standard driver aids is another reason to consider the 2022 Infiniti Q50. It's equipped with a variety of conveniences to help you as you go about your daily driving. These include forward and reverse automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and lane keep assist. Also standard is adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. All these features can give you peace of mind on the road or in a parking lot.
