Pros and Cons*
Pros
Well-appointed cabin, comfort, reliability, nifty dynamics and the choice between rear wheel and all wheel drive…all much appreciated on the Infiniti G sedan.
Cons
A surplus of controls, excessive gas consumption and an ageing style are a few of the negatives.
Price
The all wheel drive G37x has an MRSP of $43,950. It’s equipped with automatic transmission, temperature control, 7” colour monitor with rearview camera, leather seats and bi-Xenon headlights.
The Technology Package comes optional and includes voice recognition navigation system, intelligent cruise control and wifi audio. This options group has a $3,750 value.
The Premium Package, at $2,350, gets you the Infiniti Studio on Wheels® by Bose® Premium Audio system , USB iPod port, seat position memory and back-up sonar system.
The G37 Sport M6 comes with rear wheel drive, manual transmission, sport suspension, viscous limited slip rear differential, 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, larger front & fear brake rotors and rearview monitor. For $2,950, you can add the voice recognition navigation system and wifi audio.

Fuel Economy
On the highway, all three models rate the same at 7.9 L/100 km. For city driving, the G37x and G37x Sport rate 11.8 L/100 km whereas under the same conditions, the G37 Sport M6 burns up 12.3 L/100 km.
Recent Change
The G25 model has been dropped from the 2013 line-up
Exterior Styling
Its rounded contours, fine horizontal-striped grille, foglights and rear spoiler all accentuate its sporty character. This sedan is the most sold model in our region.
Drivetrain
Under the hood the Infiniti G features a 3.7 litre V6 developing 328 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. For the AWD versions (the G37x and G37x Sport), 7-speed automatic transmission is available. The rear wheel drive G37 Sport M6 is equipped with 6-speed manual transmission.
Cargo Capacity
The Infiniti G provides 382 litres of trunk space.
