Wow. The QX50 is an abject failure in its segment. Every other premium make in its category is selling 4k-6k almost monthly. It really is a bread and butter spot for the premium brands and the fact that Infiniti can't capitalize on it says a lot about the brand perception since the product itself, outside of the CVT, has gotten decent feedback (but not great).

Agreed we need to get Infiniti on the line and inform them their entire management team is fired.

This company was on the right path when the FX SUV and G 35 sedan/coupe came out with those sweeeeeet exhaust notes winning buyers over from German showrooms at the time with very attractive pricing...now they are literally running the brand into the ground.

This is the future of Cadillac. One or two bespoke cars and the rest are rebadged SUVs from their mainstream parent.

Sad. I think Infiniti could have been the sexier Nippon offering but they just kept dropping the ball instead. I seriously doubt there will be any comeback at all.
