August 31, 2021The INFINITI Q50, a highly praised vehicle in 2021, received the AutoPacific 2021 Vehicle Satisfaction Award for the Standard Luxury Car category. For the first time, the Q50 took home this award. However, the QX50, QX60, and QX80 won in multiple categories. In the 25th year, AutoPacific identified the most satisfying vehicles on the market. They surveyed 89,000 new car owners and light truck owners to find the perfect vehicle.

What They Found…

Based on 36 individual attributes to measure satisfaction, AutoPacific learned how the Q50 fueled the passion of drivers across America. Jeff Pope, President of INFINITI Americas, said they felt honored to receive the Vehicle Satisfaction Award. They aimed to build a vehicle as unique as their customers, and they believe that they achieved that goal.

The scores examine owner input and the uniqueness of the vehicle. Some of the values that AutoPacific used to come up with its scores included:

  • Features
  • Driving performance
  • Seating comfort
  • Usability
  • Interior design

In 2021, car owners nominated the Q50 for the Standard Luxury Car Award. The vehicle ranks at the top with competitive scores that were superior to its rivals in 27 out of the 36 attributes.

Successful Blend

INFINITI set out to outdo the competition. The twin-turbo V6 and the subtle blend of sportiness and luxury put this vehicle near the top. Q50 earned praise in its exterior styling, acceleration, braking, power, front-seat comfort, and a host of safety features. Taking home the 2021 Vehicle Satisfaction Award will propel this model to the top, where it has already been a highly sought-after vehicle.

You can choose from different trim levels for the Q50 that include:

  • PURE
  • LUXE
  • SENSORY
  • RED SPORT 400

Let’s say that you decide to splash some cash and splurge for the RED SPORT 400. You will receive a twin-turbo VR-series v6 engine that generates up to 400 horsepower.

For the 2021 Q50 lineup, you can choose from two new exterior colors: Grand Blue and Slate Gray. While this may add another trophy to INFINITI’s lineup, we should remember that it is far from their first award. In 2021, the Q50 outclassed its competition and earned praise for nimble handling, peppy acceleration, and front-seat ergonomics.
