INFINITI QX50

The INFINITI QX50 enjoyed quite an amazing year. In particular, the QX50 sold quite well in the United States market. Bloomberg reports the sport utility vehicle sold a whopping 272 percent more across the first eleven months of 2016 than were sold in the same period of time in the previous year. Sales of the QX50 jumped 39 percent this past December. All in all, 2026 units of the luxury crossover vehicle were sold in the month. Nissan hopes to continue this success with the new edition of the QX50 that will debut in Detroit next month. Auto analysts point to a wide variety of reasons for the QX50’s surge in sales. Yet the overarching trend in the United States as well as the rest of the world is that sport utility vehicles are becoming increasingly popular.

The front section of the QX50 sort of feels like an upscale cockpit of sorts. The interior is loaded with plush and ergonomically friendly appointments. Take a seat in the rear and you will find a spacious area that keeps even the tallest and widest occupants comfortable. Add in the fact that the QX50 has ample cargo space and it is easy to see why parents, business owners, outdoor enthusiasts and even childless couples have fallen in love with this vehicle.

Why the INFINITI QX50 is so Popular

Buyers can select from two models: the QX50 with rear drive and the QX50 AWD (all-wheel-drive). Press the gas and you will be taken aback by how quickly this crossover reaches a fast rate of speed. The QX50 boasts a six-cylinder engine with 325 horses that is tied to a seven speed automatic transmission. One would assume the vehicle’s considerable size combined with its robust engine would result in a pitiful fuel economy. Thankfully, this is not the case with the QX50. It achieves 20 combined miles per gallon.

Those who have driven the QX50 will testify to its precise handling. Though this vehicle is fairly large, it feels like a sporty sedan or coupe when rounding corners and maneuvering through tight spaces. This superior handling is partially credited to Nissan engineers’ decision to add extra length between the new model’s wheels. The QX50 now grips the road with authority and feels perfectly balanced.
