2023年英菲尼迪Q50 Interior and Cargo

As standard, the interior of the Q50 features a choice of Graphite or Stone leather with Textured Aluminum trim. The Sensory trim offers only leather in the same colors with trims finished in Black Open Pore wood. This year, Saddle Brown leather becomes available on the Sensory for $500 extra. But before you start to imagine your dream color combo, it's worth having a look at the configurator first, as some leather options can only be paired with certain exterior colors. The most attractive interior can be found in the top Red Sport trim, with semi-aniline leather in a quilted finish arriving in a choice of Graphite or Gallery White. This model sees trim elements finished in a new Black Matte Carbon Fiber design. With very few soft-touch plastics and a number of aluminum accents, the Q50's cabin feels pretty good, but you can still detect that the build quality is not quite up to the same standard as what you get from a European luxury sedan.

The Infiniti Q50 may be a little disappointing initially, with the base model featuring fixed rear seatbacks that limit how much stuff you can take with you. Despite this, you get more space in the trunk than in something like anAudi A4, with an official rating of 13.5 cubic feet. That's enough for a couple of medium-sized suitcases and some add-ons. On upper trims, the seats fold in a 60/40 split, but it should be noted that the floor is never completely flat, so although the Q50 can carry quite a bit, it's not always easy to load longer items.

In the cabin, each row gets a pair of cupholders while all other storage options can only be described as undersized. The glovebox, center armrest, center console tray, and front door pockets are all tiny, making it tricky to find a place for your pockets' contents.

As you may have guessed from the sections in this review that you've read up until this point, the Infiniti Q50 is not a class-leader by any means, but it's not inherently bad either. As standard, leather on the seats, steering wheel, and shift knob, a power sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control with rear-seat vents, hill start assist, keyless entry with push-button ignition, rain-sensing wipers, cruise control, a rearview camera, lane-departure warning, blind-spot intervention, and forward-collision detection with automatic emergency braking. There are also heated and power-folding wing mirrors with automatic reverse tilt-down, power front seating, and a power-adjustable tilting/telescoping steering column - with memory settings for all of these. Available are features like enhanced ambient lighting, and exterior welcome lighting.

Based on looks alone, the InTouch infotainment system in the Infiniti Q50 is pretty cool. You get an eight-inch upper display with a seven-inch display below, both of which are controlled via touch input. In terms of features, you get Android Auto, wireless Apple CarPlay, SiriusXM satellite radio, Wi-Fi, a pair of USB ports, navigation, and a 16-speaker Bose Performance Series sound system. There's also aux input, a Wi-Fi hotspot, but unfortunately, all of the trims feature the same software, so navigating the system is a nightmare and responses are a little slower than we'd like, despite being recently improved.
