  • Reliability (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    INFINITI generally has a good reputation for reliability, and the QX50 is expected to follow suit. Major issues are uncommon, though some minor electronic glitches have been reported.
  • Maintenance (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Maintenance costs are typical for a luxury brand; parts and labor can be more expensive than mainstream vehicles. The variable compression engine is a unique piece of technology that might require specialized servicing.
  • Technology (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    While the dual-screen infotainment system looks modern, it can be clunky to use, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration isn't always seamless. Advanced driver-assist features are present but not class-leading.
  • Comfort (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    The interior is spacious and well-appointed with comfortable seating, especially in the front. Road noise is well-managed, contributing to a pleasant cabin experience on longer drives.
  • Dynamics (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The QX50 Luxe offers a generally smooth ride, but the CVT can feel a bit uninspired during acceleration, and the steering lacks significant feedback. It's competent but not particularly engaging.

2021 INFINITI QX50: A Comprehensive Overview

The 2021 INFINITI QX50 continues to impress as a stylish and comfortable luxury crossover. It blends a distinctive design with a focus on driver comfort and advanced technology, making it a compelling option in a competitive segment. This overview delves into its key features, ownership expectations, potential considerations, and an overall summary.

Highlights

  • VC-Turbo Engine: The QX50 is powered by INFINITI's groundbreaking 2.0-liter Variable Compression Turbocharged (VC-Turbo) engine. This innovative powerplant is the world's first production variable compression ratio engine. It intelligently adjusts its compression ratio on the fly, optimizing for either performance or fuel efficiency. This translates to a responsive driving experience with respectable power (268 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque) while still offering a competitive fuel economy for its class.

  • Advanced Safety Features: INFINITI equips the QX50 with a suite of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) designed to enhance safety and convenience:

    • Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW): This system monitors the vehicles two cars ahead, alerting the driver to potential frontal collisions with vehicles that are not directly in front.
    • Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) with Pedestrian Detection: The AEB system can automatically apply the brakes to prevent or mitigate a frontal collision with another vehicle or a detected pedestrian.
    • Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind Spot Intervention (BSI): BSW alerts the driver to vehicles in their blind spots, while BSI can help steer the vehicle back into its lane if a potential lane change is detected with a vehicle in the blind spot.
    • Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP): LDW warns the driver if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane, and LDP can provide gentle steering input to help keep the vehicle centered.
    • Rear Automatic Braking: This system helps to detect and prevent collisions with stationary objects or vehicles when backing up.
  • Trim Summary: The 2021 QX50 is offered in several well-appointed trims, each building upon the previous:

    • PURE: The entry-level trim offers a solid foundation of luxury and technology, including standard leatherette seating, heated front seats, and a power liftgate.
    • LUXE: This trim adds further refinement with genuine leather seating, a panoramic moonroof, and a motion-activated liftgate for enhanced convenience.
    • ESSENTIAL: Stepping up, the ESSENTIAL trim brings a more premium feel with features like a surround-view monitor, navigation system, and ventilated front seats.
    • SENSORY: The SENSORY trim represents the pinnacle of comfort and technology, featuring premium climate-controlled front seats, genuine open-pore maple wood trim, and a Bose Performance Series 16-speaker audio system.
    • AUTOGRAPH: The top-tier AUTOGRAPH trim includes all the features of the SENSORY, plus unique quilted semi-aniline leather-appointed seating and upgraded interior accents for an even more luxurious experience.
  • Distinctive Design and Interior Comfort: The QX50 boasts INFINITI's signature "Powerful Elegance" design language, featuring flowing lines and a bold front grille. Inside, the cabin is a sanctuary of comfort and quality, with premium materials, comfortable seating, and a driver-focused cockpit. The innovative "Zero Gravity" front seats are designed to reduce fatigue on long journeys.

What to Expect

Owning a 2021 INFINITI QX50 generally translates to a refined and comfortable ownership experience. INFINITI vehicles are known for their reliability and luxury appointments.

  • Maintenance: Routine maintenance will be typical for a luxury SUV. This includes oil changes, tire rotations, filter replacements, and brake inspections. Following the recommended maintenance schedule outlined in the owner's manual will help ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the VC-Turbo engine. INFINITI dealerships typically offer a premium service experience, though independent shops that specialize in luxury vehicles can also be a good option.

  • Insurance: As a luxury vehicle, insurance costs for the QX50 will likely be higher than for non-luxury or more mainstream SUVs. Factors such as your driving record, location, chosen coverage levels, and the specific trim of the QX50 will all influence the insurance premium. It's advisable to get quotes from multiple insurance providers to find the best coverage at a competitive rate.

Potential Considerations

While the 2021 INFINITI QX50 offers many positives, buyers should be aware of a few potential considerations:

  • Infotainment System Responsiveness: Some reviews have noted that the dual-screen infotainment system, while offering a good range of features, can occasionally feel a bit slow to respond compared to some competitors. This can be a minor annoyance for some users accustomed to snappier interfaces.

  • CVT Transmission Behavior: The QX50 utilizes a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). While INFINITI's CVT is one of the more refined units on the market and is paired well with the VC-Turbo engine, some drivers may still notice the characteristic "rubber band effect" or droning under hard acceleration, which is inherent to most CVT designs.

  • Ride Quality on Larger Wheels: While the QX50 generally offers a comfortable ride, opting for trims with larger wheel sizes (e.g., 20-inch or 21-inch wheels) can result in a slightly firmer ride, especially over rougher road surfaces.

Overall Summary

The 2021 INFINITI QX50 is a compelling luxury crossover that excels in offering a distinctive design, a comfortable and well-appointed interior, and the innovative power of its VC-Turbo engine. Its suite of advanced safety features provides peace of mind, and the range of trim levels allows buyers to tailor their vehicle to their specific needs and preferences. While minor considerations regarding infotainment responsiveness and CVT characteristics exist, the QX50 remains a strong contender for those seeking a stylish, refined, and technologically advanced SUV.
