Moving inside, the team is pleasantly surprised by the interior quality and design of the QX50, praising the luxurious materials, comfortable seating, and attention to detail that elevate the cabin ambiance. Despite some outdated technology like the dual-screen setup, the Infiniti offers modern conveniences like wireless Apple CarPlay and a plethora of physical controls for a user-friendly experience.
