Have you ever slid behind the wheel of your car, only to find that your personal preferences were changed by another driver? Whether the culprit was your roommate, your spouse or your teenage son, the end result was the same - a week’s worth of frustration before finally restoring your custom settings to where they were to begin with.
The end to all of your vehicle-programming-woes has arrived in Tacoma, in the form of a new-to-you 2014 INFINITI Q50.
Offering a suite of ten extended memory functions (with 96 possible configurations), the newest model to join the 2014 INFINITI lineup is the sure-fire solution to unsavory vehicle-borrowing etiquette. The Japanese automaker rolled out its new My Car Knows Me feature on the inaugural version of the Q50 sedan. After welcoming you by name, the system gets to work by making automatic adjustments for climate control (transforming your cabin to the perfect temp), navigation routing (remembers home, office and other addresses), engine settings (like Eco, Sport and Snow modes), entertainment choices (turns on your favorite radio station), and more.Â
Perhaps even more compelling than its memorization skills is its ability to support up to four separate driver profiles. Come down to meet the 2014 INFINITI Q50 sedan and say goodbye to your shared-car frustrations once and for all.

Immediately following its debut at the North American International Auto Show in 2013, the 2014 INFINITI Q50 enjoyed instant acclaim and garnered global attention. The newest model in the Japanese automaker’s high-end lineup is still delighting drivers with impressive power under the hood and pleasing aesthetics just about everywhere else.
Based on the Nissan Z-series sports car, the Q50 is unlike any other model in the INFINITI family.
Equipped with a 3.7-liter V6, this feisty sedan comes to life thanks to a refined 7-speed automatic transmission with solid magnesium paddle shifters. Stay better connected to the pavement - even on rain-soaked Seattle roadways - by employing the INFINITI Drive Mode Selector (with Snow, Eco, Standard, Sport and Custom settings). This intuitive technology works in conjunction with the brand’s advanced digital environment system and allows for the personalization of engine, transmission, steering, and handling preferences.
Outside, the Q50 sports a dynamic design that further distinguishes it from others in the same segment. Anchored by INFINITI’s signature double-arch front grille, this sedan is as delightful to look at as it is to drive. Dual chrome exhaust finishers frame the rear, while body-colored door handles (available in Venetian Red, Black Obsidian, and six other shades) highlight the alluringly curved silhouette.

Whether a ferry ride to Bainbridge Island is on your bucket-list this summer, or you plan to stay on the mainland, a safe and responsive car is a must-have for Seattle-area drivers. Washington’s scenic shorelines, mountains and forests promise unending adventure, but 150 days of annual rainfall can quickly put a damper on ill-prepared motorists.
Navigate slick roadways with precision and confidence from behind the wheel of an INFINITI Q50.
A new addition to the luxury brand’s lineup for 2014, this sleek sedan offers so much more than simply meets the eye. The Q50 comes equipped with solutions aimed at enhancing its performance and stability. For starters, the INFINITI Drive Mode Selector - featuring Snow, Eco, Standard, Sport and Custom settings - works to alter throttle rates and the transmission shift schedule for year-round, all-weather confidence.
Next (and most notably), the INFINITI Direct Adaptive Steering technology and Active Lane Control automatically modifies the tire angle and steering inputs based on driver intention. Able to detect weather and pavement surface conditions (and make adjustments), this advanced marker system uses cameras to keep the vehicle on-center, in control, and safe.
