Infiniti G37 Summary
The Infiniti G37 is for drivers who like a little edge. Facing off in the competitive luxury compact sports sedan class, the Japanese car stands out from its German rivals thanks to distinctive styling and a powerful six-cylinder engine lineup.
There's a style of Infiniti G37 for nearly any driver's tastes. It's available in sedan—renamed Q40 in 2014—coupe (fixed hood) and convertible forms, both renamed Q60 in 2014. Automatic and manual transmissions are available depending on trim, as is all-wheel drive. Those looking for a family-oriented model should stick to the sedan, as the two-door models feature tighter backseats.
Infiniti G37 Safety
No matter which model year, body style or trim you pick, every Infiniti G37 comes with standard front and side curtain airbags and front-row active head restraints to keep you protected in a collision. Additionally, the Infiniti G37 features the following standard safety features:
- Traction Control System (TCS) and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) to help avoid sliding
- Tire pressure monitoring system, automatically letting you know when your tires need inflating
Certain trim levels of the Infiniti G37 sedan and coupe also come with an advanced all-wheel drive (AWD) system. The convertible is rear-drive only.
Infiniti G37 Interior
Even on models as old as 2009, drivers can get comfortable in the Infiniti G37 thanks to standard-fit partial-leather eight-way adjustable driver's seat. A tilt and telescopic steering column also helps drivers of various sizes find a comfortable driving position. Available options include:
- Dual-zone automatic temperature control (single-zone is standard)
- HomeLink universal garage-door opener
- Heated and cooled leather seats
Over the years, the Infiniti G37 has offered multiple interior colours, such as tan, grey and black.
Infiniti G37 Technology
The Infiniti G37 comes with a long list of tech features. Many of these are standard, though depending on the model year, they come with Premium packages—for instance, a Bose audio system and auto-dimming rearview mirrors as of 2009. Additional options available from then include:
- Touchscreen navigation system
- Voice recognition software for select infotainment systems for hands-free functions
- Bluetooth hands-free phone system, which is standard on newer model years
Infiniti G37 Space
The Infiniti G37 sedan features a roomy interior for five. Some drivers report that the middle rear seat is tight on all three model types, making the back better suited for smaller passengers. An available power sliding moonroof increases the feeling of spaciousness.
The Infiniti G37 coupe and convertible models sacrifice space for exterior style. The convertible's trunk space sits in the middle of the range with 291 L versus the sedan's 396 L and coupe's 209 L. It shrinks to only 56 L with the folding hardtop stowed.
Infiniti G37 Comfort
The Infiniti G37 is a sporty car. Every model boasts a powerful V6 engine and over 320HP. While it can rev very high, some drivers report the engine begins to sound stressed when pushed towards its redline.
The G37 sedan and coupe's low centre of gravity and large tires give the cars steady handling. Those that value performance may want to avoid the Infiniti G37 convertible—its heavy folding hardtop dampens the car's handling.
