How much does the 2016 INFINITI Q50 cost?

Prices have softened 4.28% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 475 listings available, which gives you a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

If you find a listing below $13,486.24, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2016 INFINITI Q50 a good car?

Yes — the 5/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction, and the expert score is 6.67/10. The model scores 8/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its performance, power, and comfort, and they also like its handling and spaciousness. That lines up with the overview’s emphasis on a car that feels like a more legitimate luxury sports sedan, while still appealing to buyers who want something stylish and a little different.

With 22.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2016 INFINITI Q50 reliable?

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

The owner feedback also points to a car that feels dependable and satisfying over time, with praise centered on performance, comfort, and overall value. The expert review reinforces that sense of durability by describing the Q50 as a car that can be satisfying in daily use, especially when you value its comfort and driving character.

The powertrain and chassis tuning suggest a car built to be used regularly, but used buyers should still pay close attention to maintenance history and how the car has aged in real-world ownership.

What should I look for when buying a used 2016 INFINITI Q50?

At 43.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has had bodywork or multiple owners. Focus on condition details that matter in a luxury sedan: interior wear, electronics behavior, and evidence that the car has been maintained consistently.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The 2.0t Premium has appealing styling and upscale materials, but it lacks leather seats, navigation, and safety-related driver-assistance systems as standard equipment.
• Powertrain: The turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder makes 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, uses a 7-speed automatic, and includes idle stop technology; it can feel less energetic than rivals.
• Safety package: The optional Driver Assistance package adds predictive forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, rear automatic emergency braking, moving-object detection, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.
• Infotainment: Premium models use a dual-screen infotainment system with a 14-speaker Bose premium audio system, but there is no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.0t returned 26.3 mpg on the test loop and is rated at 26 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2016 INFINITI Q50 trim should I buy?

The 2016 INFINITI Q50 is offered in 4 trim levels: 2.0t, 3.0t, Sport, Red Sport 400.

Here's the short version:

• 2.0t: This is the entry point, and it makes the most sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the Q50’s style and comfort. It gives you the core luxury-sedan experience, but you give up some of the equipment and performance that make the higher trims more compelling.
• 3.0t: This is the best-value choice if you want a stronger all-around package. The overview and test-drive notes point to this version as a more compelling pick when you care about performance, and it sits in the sweet spot between price and capability.
• Sport: Choose this if you want a more performance-focused setup without jumping all the way to the top model. It is one of the trims the review points to when maximum driving enjoyment matters.
• Red Sport 400: This is the one to buy if you want the most power and the most serious performance character in the lineup. It is the top choice for buyers who care most about driving excitement.

For safety equipment, the Driver Assistance package is the key add-on on lower trims, while the 3.0t, Hybrid, Sport, and Red Sport 400 can be had with additional driver-assistance features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 INFINITI Q50?

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

• Deal availability: 22.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 475 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.28% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 43.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $13,486.24, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2016 INFINITI Q50's resale value?

The current average of $13,453 sits slightly below last year's $14,056.

That softer pricing suggests the Q50 has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right price. If you keep the car in strong condition and maintain it well, you may be better positioned than a buyer who pays too close to the top of the market.

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 2016 INFINITI Q50 safe?

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

The optional Driver Assistance package adds predictive forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, rear automatic emergency braking, moving-object detection, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert. On higher trims, you can also get blind-spot intervention, lane-departure warning with lane-departure prevention, active lane control, adaptive headlights, and pre-crash seat belts.

One important caveat is that the test-drive notes say the frontal-impact test ratings were not carried forward for 2016, so you should pay close attention to the specific equipment on any used example you consider.

Should I buy a 2016 INFINITI Q50 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2016 if:

• 22.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 43.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.28% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It was improved for 2016 with a more legitimate luxury-sports-sedan feel and a stronger technology package.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $13,160, the 2015 costs less than the current year's $13,453 average.
• It offers unusual versatility, from comfortable all-weather driving to a fast sports-sedan setup.

The bottom line: If you want the better-rounded Q50, the 2016 is the smarter target because it brings meaningful updates and still sits at a softened price point. If your priority is saving money first, the 2015 can be the value play, but you should expect a less refined overall package.
