The exterior design is good, the Infiniti QX55 looks even better. Then interior design is good too. What’s not good is the old technology. I like the dual screen setup, but the UI is OLD. The new Nissan Altima has a better UI than this, makes no sense. These Infiniti SUVs need this: - Newer -and better looking- UI. - Higher res cameras (Nissan is using this on the new Rogues, I believe). - A digital instrument cluster. - Stop using a CVT, and start using a 7/8 speed automatic. -Interior multicolor ambient lighting. And maybe increase the HP up to 300hp. They do that on this QX50 and QX55, and these will turn into very amazing cars! Interior and exterior design are beyond amazing, imo. Materials used and quality is great. They can do this, why don’t they do it?? I think Infiniti has loads of this old tech in stock, and they need to keep selling it otherwise they’d lose tons of money. Idk
Another very good review Ben. You are always on point and do a great job on the basics. My only criticism is do you need to promote the video with you on bended knee and thumbs up? Please try another stance. This one is getting old.
I would not recommend an Infiniti of any description. I owned one a QX30 for 6 months within the United Kingdom. On delivery the rear windows failed to open. The car smelt of burning within the interior of the car. It failed on me at 60mph. Car was recovered and spent months at the dealership. Every internal wiring loom had failed and sparked out while driving. Needless to say car was rejected. The dealership was very good As for Infiniti customer support Appalling.
Comes with and aging gauge cluster and infotainment system. Has the worst display and backup camera resolution and it comes with the troublesome Jatco CVT transmission. Money better spent on a Lexus or Acura SUV.

Nissan is so busy trying to get away from Renault...they have been eating Nissan from the inside out.
I can handle everything but that CVT. I can live with imperfect tech, but not a CVT.
The engine is all-new, revolutionary tech.
@@rcrinseaall new.. where?
Oh nothing just test driving a luxury vehicle with giant snow capped mountains in the background. love this video keep the reviews coming
Hey Ben been a while glad to see your still posting
Why didn’t they go with the 9 speed auto like the pathfinder??
Not sure
Money
@@BenHardyCars they must have a lot of those CVTs and old tech in stock and they must sell it to see some money back

I hate the double screen
It's peppy not fast thou
Not better than an x3 or cx50
The qx50 ties with the Lexus nx for the worst luxury cuv you can buy
For the money I would rather have a RDX or a GV 70.
Especially the GV70. Genesis is writing Infiniti’s obituary.
Do not buy Korean. Junk of all junks.
Good interior materials but poor interior design.
No. Not even close. The X3 runs this thing off the road.
You lost me at CVT.
I've had (3) new 'Nissans' fresh from manufacturer and they were complete JUNK!!
I'd take the BMW over that p.o.s. any day
