Not a good vehicle

I don't even know where to start with this vehicle. As much as I want to love it, I just keep running into things that i don't like. First, the back seat is ridiculously small and does not fit three people comfortably. Barely one person and a car seat, actually. Also it doesn't have car play (after I was told at the dealership that it did). You would think a $24xxx vehicle would have modern features, but no. The biggest problem i have is the way this car rides. My past vehicle was a ford and even at 10 years old, it rode way more smoothly than this thing. Not to mention it randomly jerks to a stop ALL of the time in traffic. If traffic is moving slowly around 5 mph it just randomly jerks to a stop. Very annoying and unsafe. Im so over it and will without a doubt be trading it back in as soon as I can without being upside down on it. I'll never buy an Infiniti again.

Worse decision Infiniti ever made.

Have owned 10 infiniti’s Over the years. This joint venture with Mercedes Benz is an apparent failure. We traded QX30 after only 6 months of ownership. It fell apart. Although Infiniti took care of us through this debacle. There’s another (different model) in our garage now. We are Infiniti fans. Just not the QX30. Ever. Typical M-B problems.

A lot of fun to drive.

I was looking for a 4 cylinder vehicle and this is just about perfect. Not much room for people to sit in the back seats but very comfortable in the front and the performance is sporty.

Love this car.

The 2017 QX30 Premium awd was purchased as a Certified Used and, so far, has been great. It has more than ample performance with good, but not great, fuel economy. But that may be more to do with my foot than the car. I really love the styling of the exterior and the outward visibility is outstanding as well. Beautiful car. The interior is also beautiful and, overall, well thought out. The controls are relatively easy to locate/use. Some or the buttons could be a bit larger or perhaps more conveniently located, but after a short while,they were a piece of cake. Perfect size for the two of us. About 35,000 miles so far and no problems, save a slight rattle in the back, driver's corner, which the dealer took care of quickly, (with a loaner to boot). Very,very pleased. I don't understand why the sales of this are lagging. I got a really great price on the car and more than I expected on my FX35 . ( It was a low mileage trade). The QX 30, in my opinion is a .great car!

sporty car with touches of luxury

This car has it all, looks, performance and is just the right size for the Mrs. A little bit of turbo lag that will take getting used to.

Lexus RX350 best Reliable Car. Drove 300K miles.

This vehicle is more reliable, more roomy and stable. Good mileage per gallon of gas. The car is more sturdy safe in accident. Good aerodynamic shape.

Really a fun, little car. Good bang for your buck.

This car is peppy, and a lot of fun to drive. It's definitely on the smaller side, but perfect it somebody wants a sportier car. Great value for what you get. Nice engine, fancy interior, and looks great.

Great Car

My wife was looking to replace her car she used all during college. We needed more room and this offered plenty of room and comfort. It has great styling on the outside and continues inside. Though some internal features could be better, overall it?s a great car.

I have only owned this car for a week but love it

So for I love this car, however, I am shorter than average. I love the looks, the comfort and style!! I have the electric blue. I previously drove a Camaro SS so that is saying a lot!!

Most Wellmade Car We?ve Owned

From the glide of the seatbelts to the detailed chrome and wood inlays, this car is by far the most wellmade vehical we have collectively owned. The QX30 is filled with amazing attention to detail and quality manufacturing. We love the suede ceiling lining and the Cafe Teak Interior. The seat control makes it possible to have the seat conform to the most comfortable position for you and the Intelligent Cruise Control is also amazing. Our QX30 purchase was a great desicion.
