    my 10-year-old corolla does 26mpg combine, this one has 2x bigger engine and 3x more power at the same gas (better), what a car.

    Thank you, Steve. I appreciate the reply. I've had the car a week (already had over 1000 miles from dealer on it), went through a tank... 22.1 mpg...getting me a little nervous...regular driving...all in Eco mode... Can't seem to get better than 25 on Highway...seems odd...

    I'm a Toyota/Lexus fanatic but Infinti entice me very much especially the new M and FX

    @76carmel Its not that confusing, the Infiniti M37 is a midsized luxury sedan not a full size sedan, therefore the M37 competes head on with rivals such as the BMW 5 series, Audi A6, Mercedes E-class and Lexus GS. As you may know Infiniti's previous flagship & full size sedan use to be the larger Q45 sedan which was discontinued after 2006 leaving the M and the G sedan. Infiniti as of now does not have a full size sedan but a 7-series competitor is rumored to be in the works for 2014!

    I don't recall exact numbers, but I typically put 400-500 miles on my testers. When we test cars, we sometimes drive them in a manner that puts a greater toll on fuel economy. So an actual owner might see a small increase in MPG. Sorry I don't have a better memory of the highway numbers.

    The Infiniti M is a beautiful car. I think regardless of which hybrid you have, all of them have quirks. It's basically nature of the lung beast, it's constantly evolving into a mature platform.

    @liptonx I could not agree more. My viewers are some of the most intelligent you'll find on UA-cam...lucky me for their smart comments and thoughtful debate.

    Personally, I prefer the M37, or maybe the M56. With that said though, this car along with the new Lexus GS are by far my favourite luxury sedans.
    Excellent review, as usual!

  • @76carmel
    @76carmel 12 років тому +1

    I'm always confused about the M series for Infiniti. To compare it with the German rivals, what would it compare to? More towards the BMW 5 or 7-series; S-class or E-class for Mercedes or A6 or A8 for Audi. Tough call.

  • @ssj4goldengogeta
    @ssj4goldengogeta 13 років тому +1

    Hey Steve out of the M37 Sport, the M35h and the M56 Sport. which one would you recommend to a buyer?

  • @76carmel
    @76carmel 13 років тому

    Steve, I've written on your site to test this super-hybrid, the M35h. I think its drawback is the electric-to-gas transition is kinda rocky; a problem I hear with luxury hybrid vehicles. (I've never driven a hybrid vehicle before; so I don't know how it feels).

  • @jigga1215
    @jigga1215 13 років тому +1

    looking at the QX56 for me and the M35h for the wife

  • @evanmagic

    Hi Steve, just purchased this car. You said you averaged 26 mpg with some driving shenanigans...can you explain this, as well as how many miles you drove in your mpg test? Also, were you ever hitting 30+ mpg on the highway (or around town)? Thank you. Great review!

    Sizewise, does the Infiniti M compete with the 5 or 7-series BMW, A6 or A8? Or does it fall in-between?

  • @EdCramer

    do you do other voice work steve ?

  • @76carmel
    @76carmel 13 років тому

    @76carmel
    Except for maybe the Lexus hybrids -- their Synergy Drive I believe is from the mothership Toyota.

    I can't think of anything sold in America that comes even NEAR that fuel economy to power ratio.....

    The back needs a facelift. Needs more expensive features and a higher price tag to compete with the German snobs lol

    Steve, you should have applied Top Gear USA instead of those three rather boring chaps

    if you can buy a lux sedan like this, why worry about gas price?
