HELL TF NO they should charge low $15,000 for this dumpster interior, exterior is gorgeous though . Nobody wants a 1990 interior vehicle for $60,000 WTF INFINITY this QX55 belongs to rental car fleets. If Infinity don’t redesign the interior of their vehicles and get rid of the CVT transmission they will be like Blackberry/LG Phone companies in the automotive industry
I love the exterior design, nailed it. Interior, meh. The powertrain is complete garbage. It needed the 300HP standard, with the 400HP optional. Drop the CVT (which everyone hates) and put a 8-9 speed in it. RWD/AWD. Great video!. Genesis is what Infiniti should have become.
The powertrain can't be described as complete garbage. Not much difference between 300 and 268 hp. Infiniti could easily up the output, but I don't really think it would make a big difference in the buying decision. They don't position it as a performance vehicle.
The problem with Infiniti is it has another competitor (Genesis) who’s shaking up the luxury car industry. Now Acura is also making a comeback. I am really rooting for Infiniti. I had a G35 awhile ago. I loved that car!
I own it had it like 4-5 months now when you get used to the throttle input and you learn how to play with the throttle management this car is a beauty to own it really is perfect it has a few kinks that I hope they fix in the second generation but once you actually own the car and get used to it and learn the throttle response timing and how the CVT works it’s pretty fun to drive iv even found a way to make it ride like an automatic manual
Glad you enjoy the car and can speak from the perspective of an owner. Most of these car reviewers just run their mouths like a faucet. Most of them don't even own a car as nice.
@@TheLaw_11 It really is a beautiful car once you only it’s really just want to drive I’ve taken it to car meets I’ve done long road trips in it it’s not ever going to be a Mercedes or an Audi but it’s amazing in its own world.
@@bvlog4857 Awesome that you have had no issues. No plans to go off road other than some sanded county roads for me, though. I like the higher ground clearance, though.
Infiniti needs a whole new team, they’ve let so many other brands pass them. This interior is trash. Camera looks like an iPhone 6s at best. Double screens looks like a 2016 Acura which isn’t bad, 6 years ago. At this price point I’d expect way more. Cool video by ACCELER8 as always tho!
Swing and a miss. I had 3 straight Infiniti's (G37 IPL, QX50, Q50 Red Sport) after bad luck with the Germans. I was hoping the QX55 would be special, powerful, no CVT and with updated interior and tech. Decent looking but that's it. Bought a Genesis GV70 3.5 Sport Prestige and it's everything the QX55 should have been. Infiniti is losing ground globally, get out of the Nissan parts bin and build new, exciting vehicles, including EV's.
Its very interesting to see how a company like Mazda who doesn't have a luxury arm like other economy brands is successful at transforming themselves into a more premium alternative. The Mazda 3 is one of the nicest cars around since its redesign and has proven to be a contender in many different categories. The fact that infinity created the QX55 with average specs for a luxury car company is a missed opportunity. Not saying its a horrible vehicle but I mean the fact that the infotainment is so outdated really says they need a huge interior design overhaul. When it comes to using cheaper materials from Nissan I've noticed a lot of that with some of the new Genesis models. I sat in the GV70 and noticed hard red plastic on the door arm rests. It may very well be the bottom trim that's like that but man, luxury should mean more premium materials lol
So, I'm here cause of the little "comment" of Infinity, at Macan's 2022 review. Although I'm waiting for my new Macan, I still enjoyed Mike's review. This guy (Mike), has a very unique style to do review and with Ian's skills on camera (motion, colors and everything else), I will say for one more time, those guys have the best reviews on cars. Maybe not the most detailed like DeMuro's reviews, but they stick to the point and the detail someone need while searching for a car. Mike, I love your videos dude! PS: when a lady make $440.000 per year, I don't think they stick with a Macan of $70k-$80k....just wondering where did you got your stats :-)
Man I remember like 8 years ago I freakin loved the q50 and I just thought it was so nice and sporty and after a couple years it just started feeling outdated and now it still seems like the brand still stuck in the past and it’s such a shame. Now the qx60 I believe is the new redesigned suv and it’s nice but just doesn’t feel special enough like it should since it’s a luxury brand but to me feels like it’s the pathfinder.
My wife will gladly keep her Q5 for the same coin.. Styling level is the only thing it keeps up with....the rest looks cheap, sounds cheap when you shut the doors, interior looks cheap, and technology is 10 years behind..... Right on par, very typical of nissan and Infinity for the last 20 flippin years...they just dont get it.
Just another warmed over brand with out dated technology being palmed off as something new. There is absolutely nothing appealing about the cheap looking thing. The interior is as cheap as you can get and there are no decent features to speak of. A Nissan Rogue has more appeal than this corn holer.
I'm really not a fan of this car. I'm eagerly awaiting a review of the bmw ix50 m sport model, I would appreciate your point of view more than any other reviewer. Please review it
You came to an Infiniti review clip because you want to see a bmw review? How clever. Applaud yourself. With that same " clever" logic, you should go to an Infiniti dealership and let them know you'd like to purchase the BMW ix50.

Nissan/Infiniti problem is they are not focused. Their lineup for a while was too big to get one model right. They are stretched thin with ideas and just don't seem to get it. They can get the exterior design right, after that, it's all downhill.
You need to use more hand moisturizer ;) Every time you your hands meet each other, I can hear it, they sound very dry. Btw car by they way, I do not care it is a bit outdated tech wise.
I agree, The Mazda CX-5 is even better than this car in terms of interior quality and transmission. If u could compare this car with the CX-60, it would disgrace this car , that’s a real Luxury SUV.

I don't think this is a 1990 interior.... that's a stretch. A GV70 is made by a company that has had engine quality control issues (fires). Hyundai/Kia/Genesis all share parts.
Infiniti only exists in North America. Better off selling these products under the Nissan brand to improve its image as it's also struggling to stay relevant
Like what? Genesis that will catch on fire. BMWs that are notorious for high cost of maintenance and breakdown after three years. Lexus? Sure definitely no complete euro trash not reliable. Armchair warriors like yourself couldn’t really afford a vehicle like this so why even complain about it
Is the QX55 worth the money?
No...hell no. Just get an Acura or Lexus (asian brand wise).
NO

Exactly right... It's a shame Infiniti spends so much time and money developing their SUVs that they forgot what made them great to begin with.

@@bvlog4857 Awesome that you have had no issues. No plans to go off road other than some sanded county roads for me, though. I like the higher ground clearance, though.
I owned 2 Nissan CVTs. No issues as long as properly maintained. I do long drive to work. Very economical.
I really want to love this car because of the exterior but it's just falling behind 🤦♂️.. Great honest review as always Mike

Nissan is struggling to survive so it makes sense Infiniti has gone downhill now.
I had a chance to drive the car for 2 weeks. I like it, I just wish it has more power.
Infiniti needs to update their interiors. The "Two Screen" looks very outdated.
Does the 2 screen set up also look outdated in the 2023 Lexus LX600? In the Maserati Grecale ? Or in the range Rover ?

Agree 100%, under a different brand, this would be a hot vehicle....well, form the outside
almost $50k for a CVT
yikes
Trying to understand why revamp the outside but not the inside? The qx60 got a revamp why not this?!!

Comparing 0-16 to 15s is insane ,I had a little car with 3 cylinders 0.8 liter that took 15s to reach 60 miles/h .
13:25 sums up the direction Infiniti is in right now.

Hyped me up for disappointment. Better luck next year Infiniti.
Just because it looks luxurious doesn’t mean it is luxurious. Also that cvt is made by people who doesn’t enjoy driving a car
The Qx50 is a better value all around. Qx55 without the 3.0t is a scam.
How do they put the VR 30 transversely in that? Are you an engineer? No you’re an idiot behind a keyboard.

I still drive 14years old QX50, my V6 and transmission is much better than this. But I would like to get new exterior .

Dated interior, lots of plastics. May sell well but not as well as manufacture anticipated.

It’s not worth it cause it REQUIRES premium gas and you’ll void the warranty if you use regular. It’s the biggest scam in existence
Wow that was bad. That CVT UGH!! Exterior Doesn’t even illicit the same emotions or reactions I had with the fx35
I think the Genesis gv70 is more better ❤️
unfortunately the Interior is not good enough for a 2022 luxury brand car.
Infiniti only exists in North America. Better off selling these products under the Nissan brand to improve its image as it's also struggling to stay relevant
Thumbs up for the exterior but that interior is just too bland
Infiniti is so far behind in the game it's just sad. Anyone who buys Infiniti is taking an L when there are much better options out there.

Hell nah
First view!
Ohh yeah!!
That 4 cylinder and transmission trash
For the price I would get Genesis GV70. Total waste of money. No offense, but only fools would pay more than 60k for this piece of crap.
