How it scores for you10 scores
An old-school V8 luxury barge with bulletproof mechanicals and a cushy ride — the trade is ten-year-old cabin tech and resale that falls off a cliff.
Reliability66

Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years; 1 of its 3 recalls was serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +4 points for its wider reputation.

Safety50

No overall NHTSA crash rating yet, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.

Running costs52

About $2,600 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 52% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility32

14.9 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 32% of other sedans we track.

Passenger space55

Roomy front seats and decent rear room (generous in L form); the 14.9 cu ft trunk is par for the class.

Driving fun55

Old-school 416-hp V8 muscle and rear-drive balance entertain in a straight line; heavy and floaty next to German rivals.

Tech35

Carried 2011-era switchgear and infotainment to 2019; adaptive cruise existed but cabin tech felt a decade old by the end.

Comfort65

Soft-riding, quiet, with broad armchair seats — classic big-Infiniti cruiser comfort.

Value retention40

Luxury brands like Infiniti tend to lose value faster than average.

Capability30

No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
