Top 10 Reasons to Buy An INFINITI

1. INFINITI Has Some of the Best Designed Luxury Vehicles on the Market

2. Incredible Performance

While we don’t sell the 2015 INFINITI Formula 1 Red Bull RB11 which has a 0-60 MPH speed of 1.7 seconds, most of the INFINITI line has some of the quickest acceleration of luxury car vehicles in the world. Our Q50 has the ability to go 0-60 MPH in 5.0 seconds which was the standard for some of the top sports cars in the world.

Other 0-60 MPH Times:
Q60 – 4.5 seconds – the INFINITI Q60 Red Sport 400 is 0.6 seconds quicker to 60 than a BMW 340i, 1.5 seconds quicker than a Mercedes-Benz C300, and 5.2 seconds quicker than a Toyota Prius
Q70 – 5.5 seconds

3. Advanced & Exclusive Technologies

The Simmons National Consumer study surveyed INFINITI buyers and found that: INFINITI drivers are more than twice as likely as the average person to have the latest advances in car technology.

EXAMPLES:
INFINITI InTouch™: This state-of-the-art suite of entertainment and information technologies prepares you for every journey. Through integrated navigation, convenience, security and entertainment features in a dash-mounted display, INFINITI InTouch™ makes it easier than ever to control your luxury vehicle’s impressive technologies. Controllable by touch or through voice commands, INFINITI InTouch™ engages and informs you without distracting you from the road ahead.
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive: If you want a luxury vehicle that you can trust to run flawlessly even during New England’s harsh winter months, choose an INFINITI with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. This technology instantly adapts to changing road conditions, and can automatically divert up to 50% of available power to your vehicle’s front wheels. When you don’t need extra traction, the system reverts power to the rear wheels only, granting you a sporty ride and exciting handling.
INFINITI Safety Shield®: To ensure that you stay safe, the INFINITI Safety Shield® concept monitors the road around you, helps you avoid collisions and protects you and your occupants should one occur. Using technologies like Intelligent Cruise Control and Distance Control Assist, the INFINITI Safety Shield® keeps you safe when the road is clear. Perks like Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Intervention®, Blind Spot Warning® and more detect and help you avoid risks when they appear. Forward Emergency Braking helps to mitigate damage and reduce speed if a collision is unavoidable, while the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System protects passengers and drivers when collisions occur.
Intelligent Key: Thanks to the INFINITI Intelligent Key technology, you’ll be welcomed to a comfortable and personalized driving experience every time you enter your INFINITI. The Intelligent Key personalizes features like your steering wheel, stereo presets, drive modes, climate settings, side mirrors and more. Plus, this key technology allows you to start the engine without ever removing the key from your pocket.

5. Buying an INFINITI Also Comes With Great Aftermarket Support

INFINITI has sold more than 2.5 million vehicles since its beginnings in 1989. The INFINITI Q50 mid-sized car became the best selling model for the brand in the United States in recent years, while the QX60 INFINITI’s large crossover is INFINITI’s best selling SUV.

When you delve into the realm where warranties don’t dare tread, aftermarket support is a must. Not only for the fact that it’s a way to personalize and update the looks and performance of the car you’ve all but fallen in love with, but it’s also the best way in which you can change the car’s entire purpose. If you want to make changes to the originals, you are obviously completely allowed to, but you have some incredible support in many vendors and communities to do so. It’s a great car to drive “as is,” but can also be customized as well.

6. Buying an INFINITI Can Be Quite Affordable

Even when it is considered a luxury brand, INFINITI’s cost of ownership over 10 years goes as high as an estimated $210 in the first 3 years and up to $705 over the course of 10 years. Compared to the other luxury brands INFINITI is at the bottom of the list, which for once, is a good thing!

Check out our prices by heading over to our INFINITI of Charlotte Vehicle Search page and view some of the great prices. You can also check out some of our New INFINITI specials as well for some incredible lease offers on top of the amazing prices.

Luxury with Value

INFINITI believes that just because a car is a considered a luxury vehicle, doesn’t mean it can’t also be a value. All INFINITI vehicles provide the highest level of comfort and luxury possible without driving the price through the roof, in order to make a luxury brand for the people.

7. Safety Features

We list this as the #7 reason because frankly, you don’t have to be lucky to drive an INFINITI, but you can give yourself “extra luck” by simply driving one.

INFINITI continues to develop new and improved safety features. Starting with the introduction of Intelligent Cruise Control in 2001, INFINITI has made new features available year after year, including Lane Departure Warning, a Blind Spot Intervention System, and Back-up Collision Intervention.

You can ANTICIPATE THE ROAD AHEAD with INFINITI’s PREDICTIVE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING or you can leverage the BLIND SPOT INTERVENTION® SYSTEM or leverage the BACKUP COLLISION INTERVENTION system as well. All features are standard or optional depending on the vehicle. Nevertheless, having the ability to prevent accidents from happening is a boon to safety and to your health.

Also, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) announced that both the INFINITI Q50 and the Q70 equipped with Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) have been named as Top Safety Pick+. The award is the highest honor given out by the vehicle safety organization, putting both models in an elite group of cars. In addition, the INFINITI QX60 was named by the IIHS as a Top Safety Pick.

For a full list of safety features, feel free to give one of our sales professionals a call for both a test drive and all the answers to your questions.
