How much does the 2016 INFINITI Q50 cost?

Prices have softened 4.99% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 480 listings available, which gives you a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2016 INFINITI Q50 a good car?

Yes — owners give it 5/5, and our experts rate it 6.67/10. The model scores 8/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owner feedback consistently points to strong performance, comfort, handling, and spaciousness. The Q50 also comes across as a stylish, technologically sophisticated alternative, which fits buyers who want a mix of luxury and driving enjoyment. At the same time, some shoppers may want to weigh the infotainment system and steering feel against those strengths.

With 26.0% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s enough market flexibility to shop selectively.

Is the 2016 INFINITI Q50 reliable?

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

User feedback also describes the Q50 as a great value for the price, with praise for its performance, power, comfort, handling, and spaciousness. That combination suggests you’re looking at a car that many owners feel good about living with over time.

The expert review also describes the Q50 as a car that can be taken more seriously after its 2016 update, with a more legitimate luxury-sedan feel and a revised powertrain lineup. The 7-speed automatic is described as smooth and seamless, which supports the sense that the car’s core hardware is built to be dependable in daily use.

If you’re buying used, the main long-term risk is less about the basic package and more about choosing the right version and verifying how it was maintained.

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

At 44.4% 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 been in any prior collision. Focus on bodywork quality, alignment, tire wear, and whether the cabin electronics and driver-assistance features work as expected. Because the Q50’s appeal depends heavily on trim and equipment, you should also confirm that the specific car you’re considering has the features you want.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The 2.0t Premium is the entry point, but it lacks leather seats, navigation, and safety-related driver-assistance systems as standard equipment. Higher versions add more equipment and, in some cases, a more upscale feel.
• Powertrain: The 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder makes 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, and it uses a 7-speed automatic with downshift rev matching and adaptive shift control. It’s efficient, but it’s also the least energetic choice in the lineup.
• 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. Some additional driver-assistance features are reserved for higher trims.
• Infotainment: Premium models use a dual-screen infotainment system with a 14-speaker Bose premium audio system. The system does not include Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, and voice recognition can be frustrating.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.0t averaged 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 5 trim levels: 2.0t, 3.0t, Hybrid, Sport, Red Sport 400.

Here's the short version:

• 2.0t: This is the value-oriented choice if you want the Q50’s style, comfort, and technology without chasing maximum performance. It’s the least expensive path into the lineup, but it also misses some standard equipment and feels the least energetic.
• 3.0t: This is the better all-around pick if you want stronger performance and more of the Q50’s luxury-sedan character. It’s the trim that makes the car feel more like the sporty luxury sedan the update was aiming for.
• Hybrid: Choose this if you want a more efficiency-minded version of the Q50 and still want the upscale cabin and feature set.
• Sport: This is the best-value choice for buyers who want a more engaging drive without jumping all the way to the top performance model.
• Red Sport 400: Pick this if maximum driving enjoyment is your priority and you want the most powerful, performance-focused version of the Q50.

For safety equipment, note that the Driver Assistance package is optional on the lower trims, while additional driver-assistance features are available on the 3.0t, Hybrid, Sport, and Red Sport 400.

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 listings.

• Deal availability: 26.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 480 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.99% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 44.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $13,245, 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 $13,305 sits slightly below last year's $14,004.

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 choose a well-kept example with desirable equipment, you may have a better chance of holding value than if you buy a stripped or poorly documented car. The market also appears active enough that clean, well-priced examples should continue to draw interest.

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?

The 2016 INFINITI Q50 earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

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

One caveat is that the review notes structural changes for 2016 and says prior frontal-impact ratings were not carried forward, so you should pay close attention to the exact equipment on any used example you’re considering.

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:

• 26.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 44.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.99% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2016 update made the Q50 feel more like a legitimate luxury sports sedan.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $12,942, the 2015 costs less than the current year's $13,305 average.
• It offers a wide range of personalities, from comfortable all-weather performer to fast sports sedan.

The bottom line: If you want the better-rounded version of this generation, the 2016 is the stronger starting point because it benefits from the update and still sits at a relatively approachable price. If your priority is saving money above all else, the 2015 can make sense, especially if you find one in good condition with the right equipment.
