Infiniti Q50
The Infiniti Q50 in its current form dates back to 2014, and it shows. The infotainment system no longer holds up to modern standards, and the overall interior looks and feels dated. The main reason why people turn to this compact luxury sedan is still the twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 under the hood, which generates either 300 horsepower or 400 horsepower depending on the model. A seven-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive come standard, improving handling.
