  • Bleeding edge design.

Dislikes

  • Not very dynamic on road.

The $38,900 Q30 GT is the entry-level small crossover for Infinti, and it sits below the mid-level Q30 Sport, which retails for $44,900 before on-road costs, and the range-topping Sport Premium at $52,900.

The Q30 GT comes with cloth trim, halogen headlights, Brembo brakes with sliding calipers and rear parking sensors. It misses out on a rear view camera, however.

The UK-built Q30 comes with a Mercedes-Benz sourced 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbo petrol engine that makes 115kW and 250Nm. It’s teamed with a seven-speed DSG.
