5 reasons to buy the 2014 Infiniti QX50

1. Luxury cabin 

The interior of the 2014 Infiniti QX50 is fitting for a luxury SUV and offers an excellent ride experience. It has an elegant, upscale cabin, with nice materials, and touches of luxury in various places. Standard on the 2014 Infiniti QX50 is leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, and a power-folding second row, to name just a few amenities. It also comes with handy features such as a sunroof and push-button start. 

2. Sporty performance 

 If you are a car enthusiast who appreciates a dynamic driving experience, then that would be another reason to give the 2014 Infiniti QX50 a chance. It’s a crossover SUV that drives like a sporty sedan, which is mostly because it’s based on the Q50 sedan, inheriting some of its handling and steering characteristics. It’s powered by a standard 3.7L V6 engine that produces 325 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque, coupled to a seven-speed automatic transmission. Steering wheel paddles for quick shifting also come standard. With this powertrain, the 2014 Infiniti QX50 delivers a quick acceleration time, going from zero to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. 

3. Cargo-carrying capacity 

In terms of functionality, the 2014 Infiniti QX50 offers ample room for cargo in the trunk and convenient storage options inside the cabin. The trunk has an 18.6-cu-ft capacity, which is just enough for a couple of large suitcases and one or two smaller ones, so you’ll be covered for family vacations. The total cargo volume increases further to a maximum of 47.4 cu-ft with the rear seats folded. The floor of the cargo area is low, which together with the wide opening, makes for convenient loading and unloading. 

4. Standard convenience and connectivity features 

As far as technology is concerned, there are plenty of features that are standard on the 2014 Infiniti QX50 and contribute to an enjoyable ride experience. For instance, there is dual-zone automatic climate control, power-folding heated mirrors, and cruise control. On top of it, you will also get a seven-inch screen infotainment system, satellite radio, and a USB port. 

5. Elegant styling 

Wrapping up the entire package for the 2014 Infiniti QX50 is a beautiful exterior that fits the excellent cabin perfectly. Overall, it boasts a design that looks like a luxury coupe, which also translates into its performance. It has a smooth, sloping roofline, along with a rear spoiler and chrome-finished dual exhaust tips. A wide rear hatch and a low cargo floor help make it look like an even more compact and sportier car than it already is.
