Thank you for watching this detailed review on the 2017 Infiniti Q60 Coupe 3.0t Premium AWD! Be sure to tell us what you think about the 2017 Q60 in the comments below, and don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you enjoyed the video.
+CarConfections And don't forget you saw it here FIRST!!
+CarConfections Will you be reviewing the Sport and the Red Sport models in the future?
Yes. We will do a specific review on one of the Sport models after they come out later in the year.
+CarConfections you did a great job on the video! Would you say the responsiveness of the InTouch system in the 2017 Q60 is much faster than the version on the Q50 Sedan? I found the sedan version to be quite slow and the voice navigation to be consistently inaccurate.
HarajukuNinja Thanks! I don't think it is really any more responsive than the Q50 system we tested. I found both of them to be responsive with only the occasional hiccup. Hope this helps!
Design and interior is just WOW!!!
This is the best review I've seen of this car !! Great Work Man!
This was a great review, editing was all on point with good information. Nice job!
+CONDUCTOR WE HAVE A PROBLEM Thanks! We are glad you enjoyed!
Great reviewer with a great eye for detail. Great job, lol.
+AK Lawrence Thank you very much!
great review! thanks!
WOW they will keep that keyfob design until the end of mankind.
seriously. I really need them to make a new key fob
Tell me about it lol.
Great review. Very informative. Liked getting the details of the Red Sport.
+Demond Johnson Thank you! Hopefully later in the year when the Red Sport comes out we will do a short follow up review to visually look at the differences!
Definitely an interesting looking sports coupe!
Looks much nicer than Lexus RC
I have watched every video review I can find about the Q60 and Q50. I still learned things from yours, I didn't catch from other videos, especially with regard to what additional features were included with what packages. You also gave more detail about what comes with the Silver Sport trim. Most other video reviews ignored that trim level completely. I didn't know there was a Silver Sport until I saw 2 on a local sales lot. Thank You!
So glad you found it helpful! Happy Thanksgiving!
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME VIDEO!! you knocked it out of the park this time! really awesome video for an awesome car.
PS: I appreciate the trouble you went through to make this video. just realized it poured rain on you the entire video 🌧🌧🌧 i liked and subbed
100% agree with everything in this post.
+John Davis Thanks man!
+CarConfections 8.ikvuu8ukhikkvdmmmhź
I'm in love 😍
best review ever
Very informative thank you, even filming in the rain. Trooper lol
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
im gonna buy one!
nice detailed review
+shawneal1 Thanks!
good stuff
I love this car!! So beautiful and elegant
Beet review ive seen. I learned so much despite watching many other vids.
Glad to hear it! Thanks!
The 0-60 on the 3.0T is approx 5 sec. 2.0T is a touch over 7. There appears to be little difference in MPG. It is recommended to avoid the steering pack, and opt for the standard mechanical link.
wow Absolutely beautiful car super excellent information about this gorgeous infinite .thanks you...
+Carlos Alen duran Thanks!
Lexus RC is ugly, 4series bimmer is plain and nothing to look at.. Seen this car on the road the other day it's such a gorgeous machine... Will be my next new car.. Glad I waited...
I just got mine a month ago 3.0 premium. I love this car!
clippers4me how much is the payment on it for insurance?
even in the rain. hell of a review thanks. i don't like the front end of the new lexus models so this is more my style.
+Chase Simpson Thank you!
beautiful car!!
Basically a mustang had sex with a maxima and out came the q60. Sweet
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that the front end has a slight resemblance to a 2016 mustang
Lol I have a Q50 and I love mustangs and the Q50, so this is perfect for me. I have a Mustang, I have a Q50 Ugh Q60
Greatest accident to ever happen!
thanks great review
what camera do u use ??
+Pro-_-Ninja 1 Thank you! We use a Canon Vixia camcorder and a AudioTechnica mic.
its so beautiful
Thanks for the detailed report I've ever seen for Q60. I visited the delarship last week and saw one and I sat inside the cabin, it feels great for the luxurious touching and eyecatching details, and the Q60 is one of the greatest car that I expected to see in this year while the coming one is Lexus LC500. However, I guess the Q60 is much more suitable for daily use.
+Gabriel Ho Thanks! We are glad you liked it! We are also looking forward to the upcoming Lexus LC!
nice video i was waiting for this review u like the only one
+the209ceres Thanks!
does the emblem light up?
+the209ceres Not on ours, but you can get one optional.
okthanks
In the 3.0T, What’s the difference between the Luxe, Premium and Sport?
Also, props for doing this in the rain.
+Kripple Hippo Thanks! We wanted to be first so we couldn't mess around haha!
I wish I would've waited for this to be my first car!
good review, one thing I caught though is you said the vr engine family is new but I think it's been around awhile in the gtr.
+not me Thanks! You are right. What I was really meaning was that this is a new engine for Infiniti and it is of course quite a bit different from the GTRs engine.
a few questions. .. is this still considered a skyline in Japan. do they offer air condition seats and what is simi analine leatherette
No, ventilated seats are not offered on any Q60 (in the United States at least). All you need to know for semi-analine leather is that it is a top-notch type of leather and *feels* very expensive and premium. You would really have to see it in person to know why it is so nice over regular leather or leatherette.
Yeah its sedan counterpart is definitely still called a Skyline in Japan, and some early ones were badged as such, so this coupe counterpart of the same car would also be considered Skyline. However, Nissan wants to just badge it Infiniti to keep consistency in Japanese markets and international markets.
Hi! Between RS5, M4, RCF, C63 coupe and Q60 coupe red , which one has the best exterior looking? Thank you
Visuals and audio are opinions. You can't ask people which one has the best look/sound because their opinions would be different.
Pick any you like the most, and most importantly, the availability of service centers around your home.
c
Woah you're probably the first RUclips to have this review
I know!! I really wonder how they got this so quickly... its really nice car too
great vid! @11:25 mark you noted the red sport 400 having a carbon fiber spoiler option.....I haven't been able to find that info....can you clarify please?
Found a photo on Instagram, looks good. instagram.com/p/BJhU_9PBUmu/
The 3.0t Sport and Red Sport will have a carbon fiber spoiler as an individual option or a carbon fiber package that includes the spoiler and some other stuff (they dont specify). The Infiniti USA website doesn't indicate this yet because those two models won't be available until later in the year. It looks like someone else has found a picture of it. Thanks for watching!
if you have a chance, please review the 2017 infinitiQX70 , THANK YOU,
+Patrick T We are planning on it! Stay tuned!
This car with out top Tronic?
they finally updated and refreshed those dated interiors
Very nice review! Looks great, but I like the 3.7 V6 a lot better, haha.
+N&T Auto Reviews Thanks! It still sounds good but definitely different
the g37 coupe looks much cheaper than the q60, there is no comparison. maybe you own a g37 and thats why you say you like it better, but it's not!
the sexiest rear fascia i've seen even out of current cars
A personal umbrella holder??? dam i need to start making reviews lol
name of group playing the song he was playing called Wandering?
Ryan Little
Beautiful back design! I wish it was available with a manual though. And the 2nd screen in the interior is not very pretty imo. But for the rest, great looking car!
Does it have car play?
Not bad for an entry level sport-luxury coupe.
I drove the Q60 Red Sport months ago while in a sales role for Infiniti. It was a red model with beige interior fully loaded with 20inch staggered wheels that likely won;t make the production car. Power is great it comes on early and it pushes you back in your seat for sure.My only gripe is the sound,there's virtually no exhaust sound,it's hybrid like. The 3.0T has more whoosh and turbo like sounds than the Red Sport. Many customers who own G35/G37 love the sound and growl of their cars and I can assure you they'll be disappointed.
I was dissapointed
I was dissapointed, thank god i went with a Lexus
+justin bouche went with a Lexus ??? LMFAO you can't afford any of this moron..... get a job and find a girl
Great review. I do however wish the gear selector was shorter!
+nauticalone Ed Thanks!
FYI, the VR engine platform isn't new, the GTR has a VR38DETT, whereas this is a new VR30DETT, not new platform, just a new engine. Great video overall 👌
Thanks!
Cool
You call the info system responsive?Have you tested the latest BMW, Audi or even Mercedes info system?When you did the pinch, the system was lagging very bad for a 2017 car
+Alexandru Rohozneanu It's not the best, but it's not the worst. I agree that Audi MMI and iDrive are certainly more responsive and have more features.
At 17:47 I thought I saw ambient lights (green lights) if it was by manufacturer, I’d buy it for sure🤔
RIP VQ exhaust notes
that made the g35 known
Yeah man the sound is gone for sure. I love the sound of my G37 coupe but with the Q60 the fuel economy has improved.
No man buys a Q60 hoping to get 30mpg....my IPL coupe had 17mpg but it was hella fun to drive just had to sell it for 2 extra doors.
good products
I think it looks good...some gripes on proportions...artist eye... but yeah it does have that infinit-mustanenesis look tho
When are you expecting the RS version? Maybe you don't know the exact date but do you know the month? Early, middle or late in what month??
+Jetski Fisherman Infiniti hasn't said when they might arrive so we have no idea. Sorry!
juan aGrabiet
Thanks for nice and informative video.
I just have a small suggestion for your future videos. When you review a car's interior, it would be great if you can focus a little more on the seat's headrest. So many cars these days have headrests that are raked too much forward and not adjustable it is very uncomfortable for certain people.
I see the Q60 has very steep headrest and wonder if it's adjustable at all.
I understand the steep rake is to meet the new law but car manufacturers should really make the headrests adjustable, not just up and down but the rake as well.
Thanks!
+Villa SanJuan Thank you! For the record, the headrests were comfortable for someone of my size (5' 8"), but obviously that's a matter of opinion.
Yes, I think height and to some degree weight affects how comfortable someone is in a car seat. Also, the person's posture is important as well (how straight they sit up while driving).
For me, I wouldn't buy a car without adjustable headrests because I like sitting straight while driving and with that position a forward leaning headrest is very uncomfortable.
Thanks.
The as tested price is less than the MSRP for a RWD 3.0 Premium. Is this a typo?
+Mark Hebert Yes that is a typo. Thanks for catching that. The correct as-tested price with all the options can be found at 30:41.
Thx.
@3:04 when he starts the car, you can hear a nasty metallic sound. Engine already breaking down! lol
I WANT THIS CAR
I found a 2017 Q60 3.0t Premium for $26k. Do you think it’s good for that price?
sstteevveenn77 that’s cheap, I’d look into that VIN and check the car fax. It should be in the 28-30 range
It’s not cheap these people just don’t understand depreciation
I wish Infiniti kept the 2008-2012 rear ending style. I love the outside of the car but I've never been a fan of Infiniti interior especially the old style clock instead of a digital clock. Big reason why I may be switching from Infiniti to something else
I have to give nissan credit, this is actually not bad looking.
Damnit Infiniti...you make a beautiful update but remove a manual option....and if you go with the 400hp awd version you are looking at m4 prices. Sad times. I wonder if you can swap the engine from this car to the older models. :)
I don't like the lines of the rear side window but other than that its a nice looking car
how are they only getting 300hp from a Twin Turbo V6?
idk, the "red sport" is puts out 400. guess they went extra conservative with the tune
i guess you can use the turbos to help with fuel economy as well. but then that defeats the whole purpose of this car i think. wonder how much that engine is really capable of then..
One feature can ruin a car as a "fatal flaw." With this car, it is the rear quarter window with the huge camel hump in it
Fantastic review. I'm going back and forth between this and the RC. I guess they sacrificed trunk space for the rear seat but opposite with the Lexus. Nothing looks better than the blue RC but I love the exterior lights on this thing. Would rather get an RCF though but being in Ohio I would hate having an additional car for the winter but a low milage used one can be found for cheaper than the Q60.
Thanks! The two are closely matched. We hope to compare them after we get our hands on a 2017 RC.
Please go with the Infiniti because the RC is terrible. Yeah it's nice inside and out but the performance is terrible. Not enough hp and torque, plus it's too heavy. I own a Lexus, I like them but their performance line is shitty.
+Stutta T I wouldn't call the 350 a performance car by any means
+Corey B Did say that? No! But a 335i, C450, or S4 perform very well. Not like a M3, C63amg, or RS4 but you'll get something out of them. I'm sure Q60 Red Sport will perform just as good as 440i, 2017 C43amg, and the new S4. Lexus couldn't do that with RC350 F Sport. Like said I like Lexus vehicles but they messed up the new ones big time.
+Stutta T I misread what you were getting at, calm down buddy
Can you guys do a behind the scenes vid?
We will be setting up a Snapchat soon to give everyone a behind-the-scenes look, as well as the quickest way to know what cars are reviewing. Thanks for watching!
Wish it had a flat bottom steering wheel and ventilated seats. Almost perfect.
Good points. I would also like quad exhaust on the 400hp sport version
Agreed, quad exhaust along with the red calipers would help to further distinguish the 400hp sport version from the lower trim levels.
For most car guys and tuners, they don't really matter.
They'll be changed with Momo/Nardi steering wheel and bucket seats anyway.
quite the interior...
Wait how did they go from a slightly bigger V6 with 350hp to a twin turbo V6 with just 300? :/
its because it's detuned to 300HP on their mid-level offering. The top of the line "Red Sport 400" is 3.0L twin turbo motor good for 400HP.
twenty514 Strange choice. Wouldn't it be easier to not use 2 turbos on the cheaper model?
+iSOBigD I suppose so. But I would imagine in a manufacturing assembly line it's easy to have the same engine twice and just change the tune than manage inventory on two completely different engines. Of course, I'm assuming these engines are basically the same just detuned.
no because you cannot get 300 hp out of a non turbo 3 liter. the lexus 3 liter non turbo puts out 245 hp max, and your torque would be about 220, the twin turbo 3 liter puts out 295 torque, you would need a 3.5 liter non turbo with about 260 torque.
nissan has been using a 3.5l with over 300hp for many years and a twin turbo version with 500 to 600hp thats why I don't get why they wouldn't just throw those in a small RWD car.
So is the maxima eventually going to look like this body style wise because the current maxima looks like ass
i doubt it. brand separation is still important.
Why Infiniti don't you guys make tune exhaust like the g/an fx . I think that's what made you special . Make these cars tuned an you have a gem . I don't understand why they strayed from that
For those who didn't catch it. The sticker price is $57,800. I don't think he mentioned it, I paused the video to get a glimpse of what the sticker says.
+Hugo Garcia If you want to see a detailed breakdown of the pricing of this model and the other trims go to the Pricing Info section at the end of the video.
Oh okay I'll check that later.
VERY G .Q.
Drove the 2.0t RWD for a day. Nice car for the price but engine and engine sound was not sporty enough. I also didn't like the totally new fully electric steering which changes the feedback quite often and suddenly while driving. You don't feel the street at all. Power is enough but you expect sth way more sporty with that design and don't wanna lose against a 2.0l BMW diesel family car, which you will. I would like to drive the 405hp version without electric steering if available.
well your driving a 2.0l tourbo 208hp coupe I don't think they made that engine for a nice exuast they made it for people who wants good mpg
So then, if the 2.0t model was sold in Japan, it would have been the closest thing Nissan would have to the Silvia. I think they knew it and deliberately did not make it for Japan. The sedan version with the 2.0 turbo is called the Skyline 200GT-t Type SP in Japan. So close.....Still waiting.
they cheaped out on the paddle shifters not being column mounted
as if you know how to use paddles.
are you fucking dumb?
q60s or 435i m? I like the q60 looks except for the "rear window kink" and a lil too much chrome for me. the 435i checks all my boxes but just looks a little "bland" hence why i want the m package but even then the q60 looks better especially from the back. exhaust note wise, the new motor from infiniti lacks the same "rasp" from older models, and the 435 sounds a tiny bit better. I like german build quality, but always liked infiniti, older models felt a bit too "japanese" to me aka build quality wasn't as good as german cars. idk, im still shopping, but leaning towards 435 but his new q60 caught my eye.
because so many people are buying manuals right? not even bmw buyers want manuals. they get outsold by 10-1
I've got a vw gli in DSG auto and it shifts super quick and precise, best auto i ever bought. but...I miss slammin through 6 gears in manual cars lol
so true, i was looking for a manual but settled for the dsg cuz it was a sweet deal. but if i were to buy an auto im just saying a dsg or pdk would be the only choice for me, all other auto trans are slow and sluggish. yes auto in general are boring. def a sport luxury coupe or sports car has to be a manual simply for control and fun factor. yes, auto is faster from 0-60 but it eliminates all user error, which is actually the fun part.
+Alper Yucekus get the new 440i m they just arrived. I'll get mines next year after I'm done with my 235i.
im trying to figure out the difference between 435i/440i
this is nice but i like the lexus RC over the Q60
RC sucks!
the rc is a overpriced camry with a bodykit
Jeison Gonzalez the disrespect is real with this comment
+demikpre I like the look of the rc sport. However the power is poor and still using the old 3.5. That's where the issue is. Time to step it up for the normal models. I'm not
Talking about the F.
I attended a VIP event. I was at the dealer and saw a red 400hp sport AWD (which is what you want). I drove the 400hp q60s. Too much power. You will want AWD to take full advantage of the power to the wheels. Easy to spin them on the RWD. Love the car but will be getting the AWD Red 400
If it weren't for the hideous design of the front of the RC, I just might have agreed with you.
This is my car
That Bose tho
stop trying to use hood slang you wannabe. bose is shit
+OneOfOne haha I'm soo hood because I used an abbreviation, tbf sonos is probably better
+OneOfOne don't talk shit if you aint shit. go drive your 03 sentra your mommy have you for getting your GED 7 years ago. tho biatch
+PatLadsChan99 what car uses sonos for their system
Gorgeously attractive car. No 6mt sucks. No LSD sucks. That exhaust sounds like my grandmother's '05 Murano S, horribly boring. I'll still aim for this though.
dumbass nobody buys manuals. go away
auto is taking over. get over it. its just better than a manual. besides this is a luxury car. bet u cant afford it thats ehy its an auto. lsd dont matter. aint no race car. again its a lucury car. not even bmw have lsd on theirs.
and all the other cars sounds as bad lol.
I can afford it for 1. I still drive manuals. Plenty of other people do. The ATS-V is luxury and is offered in 6mt. And did you both miss how I said regardless, I'll still be aiming for this car? Plenty of other cars sound 2x better than this. Quit defending it, I still like it.
Still waiting on a 6 spd transmission. One can only dream. 😬😬😬
Infinity needs to redesign the key fob for their vehicles. It's the SAME as Nissan. They have to create a bigger distinction between the two. Also, it's been the same design for so many years now. Time for something new.
It's a fuckin key fob...the damn thing will be hidden in your pocket or some place out of sight
T. Bigums Buyers, ESPECIALLY luxury buyers should not have the same key fob as a basic ass Nissan sentra.
All Mercedes key fobs look the same, only the AMG version and Maybach version have an additional emblem on the back side. I know it is still the same brand not like Infiniti and Nissan comparison but for a 50k, 100k or 200k Mercedes car I expect a more individual key fob... :D
looks sexy right now, but in 5 years once they add things to the design of the body this will look so basic lol
I think, Infiniti should also use this car as their GT500 race car next year instead of the GT-R.
It'll be a good promotion for the Infiniti brand, just like with Lexus and their LC GT500.
um, no...
Kripple Hippo um, yes...
"lets put a 2 ton luxury coupe with a small 3 liter in a GT500 race"
like I said ... NO
Kripple Hippo They use a different engine in GT500.
like I said ... YES
they use a different engine in a car that hasn't even been in a GT500 race. right ok, now you're just trying to do all you can to not look stupid, which in turn is making you look even dumber.
they're not going to but a Q60 in a GT500.
so once again, NO
Does anyone else feel that these cars are looking a lot the honda accord coupe (bmw 6, rolls royce wraith, et.)
infinitis are pretty good with maintenance costs. so that's not really a good excuse. but when I first saw the spy photos of the Q60 (before the production model was unveiled) the first thought I had was that it looked like an Accord.
these 2 cars are no where near in the same league, so besides the look at first glance, the comparison is a little silly.
***** i'm a Honda hater, so I would never.
But your point is pretty good.
its cheaper, not bad looking at all, not a slow car either.
its a reasonable car for reasonable people.
I'm really annoyed that leather seats aren't standard for $40,000 luxury coupe. Come on Infiniti, you're not BMW and Mercedes
All Infiniti have a leather version standard. There is no cloth versions. Even their "pleather" is better than bmw, Audi, Benz
At $40,000 I want leather, not "leatherette"
Audi A5 comes with leather as standard. Do your fuckin' research before coming at me , bitch
Is the 2018 A5 available? No you dumb fuck. Stick to what's available now.
Audi's Quattro system is better than rear wheel drives. Since you brought up sedans. Your argument doesn't hold water because you can get an A3 and A4 at under 40,000 with leather standard. Just go about your business fuck boy
They are only getting 305HP out of a TWIN TURBO V6? Pretty pathetic. They should be focusing on performance in a premium model but I guess that's the point of the Red Sport.
G35/37 still looks more aerodynamic.
Nope. When you see the sport version in person it will blow you away. Unfortunately I have to wait for the red color. 400hp AWD version. The actual red is coming out later.
no it doesn't! just cause you own a g37 does not make it better!
Guess there wont be a new "Q note"
Really nice looking car!!!!
But no AC/ventilated seats, no heads up display. Maybe they will add or change the interior next year. All brand new car, but still using the same interior from the Q50??
They still using that slow ass electric seat to move the seat forward to get in to the back seat. Imagine waiting in the rain for that thing to move forward. lol
ctk4949 It is supposed to be an updated Redesigned coupe from the Q50. They will eventually redesign the interior
mine
Should have came with 4.0 V6 then i would br interested. To down grade the engine from a 3.7 to 2.0 is a major turn off for me. Like the body style and interior but that engine has to go.
7-GOLD-BARS-7 what is wrong with the engine it has 300 hp with twin turbos the base model has 208 hp that's for people who likes coupes with good mpg and there is a 400hp version
+romel 4life whats wrong with it? small engine with twin turbo causes the twin turbos to lock up after a period of time. They will have to be replaced and i guarantee the twin turbo is NOT covered under warranty. Ford had this same idea and is having this problem as we speak.
I feel like infiniti took the previous gen audi a5 and just refuned it.
No cooled seats, just heated only!
Awwwe
i drive the g37x coupe and those remote keys have to updated so ugly
infiniti is a great car ...never had any problems with it
