Overview
The 2018 Infiniti Q50 Hybrid Sedan fares well in the compact sedan segment. Adding $13,050 to the price of the standard gasoline variant, the Q50 hybrid carries a base price of MSRP $50,600 and is offered in a single trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 3.5L V6 supported by a 50 kW electric motor. Mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission, it makes 360 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 25 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 29 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it. Performance of the Q50 hybrid also improves here, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 5.0 seconds. Infiniti offers the same 8 colors for the Q50 hybrid. The Q50 mainly competes against the BMW 3 Series 330e PHEV Sedan and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class C350e PHEV Sedan.
