When it comes to eco-friendly vehicles, there aren’t many upscale options. That’s where the 2014 INFINITI Q50 Hybrid shines. This stylish sedan offers luxury, comfort, and plenty of high-tech functions.
Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine coupled with a lithium-ion battery-fed 50-kilowatt electric motor, it generates 354 hp. Equipped with rear-wheel-drive and a seven-speed automatic transmission, it gets an impressive 31 mpg combined (29 city/36 highway). In performance tests conducted by experts at Edmunds, this swift car went from zero to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds. It has even earned a five-star rating for overall protection in the event of an accident.
The Premium trim level has an upgraded cabin featuring subtle leather upholstery throughout. For parking assistance, the 360 degree-camera system helps to keep you from backing into anything. You will be able to see what’s around your vehicle before you move an inch. There is also 9.4-cubic feet of space in the trunk for groceries or luggage.
