Is the 2023 INFINITI Q50 a good car?

Yes — the 2023 INFINITI Q50 earns a 5/5 user rating and a 6.7/10 expert rating, which points to a car with clear strengths and some meaningful compromises. The standout strength is Form and function at 8/10.

The Q50’s appeal is straightforward if you want a traditional sedan that still leans into style and performance in a crossover-heavy market. It offers a powerful engine and easy-to-use technology, and its design remains one of its biggest strengths. The trade-offs are just as clear: poor fuel economy and outdated technology, along with poor value for money.

The market also shows 33.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 INFINITI Q50 reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Q50’s reliability story is helped by its straightforward, familiar formula and its emphasis on proven hardware rather than constant reinvention. Its powertrain is described as strong and quick, and the transmission is noted for smooth, quick shifts in relaxed driving. The car’s easy-to-use technology also helps reduce day-to-day frustration.

If you’re buying used, the main long-term ownership risk is that the car’s dated technology and poor fuel economy may feel more noticeable as the kilometres add up.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 INFINITI Q50?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Q50’s design is still attractive, and the interior can feel refined with leather upholstery, but the cabin also shows its age through old-looking buttons, a low-resolution centre display, and a gear shifter that feels oversized. Base-trim feature gaps matter because higher trims add more of the equipment that makes the car feel properly luxury-oriented.
• Powertrain: You get a twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 with 300 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission. It feels quick in a straight line, but the steering is light and the suspension can roll more than you might expect.
• Safety package: Forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking are standard. Adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and intervention, and lane-departure warning are available but not standard, so you should confirm whether a used example has the driver-assistance equipment you want.
• Infotainment: The Q50 uses two touchscreens, with navigation and, when equipped, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on the upper screen and other functions on the lower screen. It also supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, though the latter requires a wire.
• Fuel efficiency: The test vehicle is rated at 12.5 L/100 km city, 8.7 L/100 km highway, and 10.8 L/100 km combined.

Which 2023 INFINITI Q50 trim should I buy?

The 2023 INFINITI Q50 is offered in 2 trim levels: Pure, Luxe.

Here's the short version:

• Pure: This is the entry point, but the available information points to the Luxe as the better buy if you want the Q50 to feel properly equipped. The Pure makes sense only if you are focused on getting into the model at the lowest possible price.
• Luxe: This is the best-value trim. It adds features such as a 16-speaker Bose premium audio system and leather upholstery, while still staying more palatable than the higher trims. If you want the strongest balance of equipment and price, this is the one to target.

The safety content notes that adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and intervention, and lane-departure warning are available but not standard, so check carefully for those features on any used example.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 INFINITI Q50?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile options.

• Deal availability: 33.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 124 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.53% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $33,312 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 INFINITI Q50's resale value?

The current average of $33,457 CAD sits slightly below last year's $37,394 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Q50 has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can be helpful if you’re buying used but less favourable if you’re planning to sell soon. If the market continues to favour newer rivals with fresher technology, resale values may stay under pressure. On the other hand, a lower entry price can help keep the car attractive to value-focused shoppers.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 INFINITI Q50 safe?

The 2023 INFINITI Q50 earns Good ratings from IIHS in all four crashworthiness tests, and it earns a five-star rating in the NHTSA rollover test.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

Forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking are standard, while adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and intervention, and lane-departure warning are available but not standard. That means you should verify the exact safety equipment on any used example before you buy.

Should I buy a 2023 INFINITI Q50 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 33.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.53% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 stands out for style and performance in a market dominated by crossovers and SUVs.

The bottom line: If you want the Q50’s traditional sedan character, strong engine, and easy-to-use tech, the 2023 is a sensible used buy. If you’re more price-sensitive, the softened market and decent deal share make it worth waiting for a well-priced example rather than paying too much for a higher-trim car.
