Infiniti to Stop Production of the Q50 Sedan Worldwide

SAUDI ARABIAInfiniti has announced its decision to stop the production of its Q50 sedan worldwide in December 2024, after its 11-year production run. This decision is a result of a decrease in sedan’s demand and dipping sales charts.

    In June 2024, only 2,839 Q50 sedans were sold in the US, which is an 11 percent decrease in sales, compared to June 2023. The Q50 was the last remaining sedan in the Japanese brand’s line-up, which is now entirely dominated by SUVs and crossovers. 

    InfinitiPreviously, Infiniti discontinued the sedan’s coupe version, the Q50 coupe. However, Infiniti is not the first brand to shift its focus away from sedans and coupes, rather this is an emerging trend in the automotive industry around the globe.

    Features on the Q50 sedan include a touchscreen TFT multimedia console, 16 speaker Bose audio system, smartphone connectivity via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, leather seats along with other convenience and safety features.

    InfinitiWill there be any sedan from Infiniti in the future?

    The Infiniti Vision Qe is the brand’s first electric car. It was revealed back in 2023 and can be the Japanese manufacturer’s next sedan. However, this is only a concept car and can take months or even years to reach the production stage. So, currently, Infiniti will only be selling SUVs and crossovers for some time.
