Engineer: How quick should our ignition be?
Infiniti CEO: Yes
Lmao
Funny because this car is pretty much a rebadged Mercedes
The Infiniti is much better looking than the GLA
they both I think share the same chassis as Nissan owns 1.55% of Daimler
That first start up sounds like it's broken lmao
🤣🤣
It also looked like it was running warm
Well it is a Renault engine after all from a Mercedes GLA
My c class sounds like its broken too. But this is normal
+TheMadPotato Well, it's no Lexus, so don't expect to much. 🤣
I have 2017 QX30 Premium (level above Luxury but below the sport). I've had this car for 2 and half years as we got it as soon as the Infiniti delear got their hands on one. This car is a BLAST! You can literally throw this car around turns and it will just eat them for days, and it's got some go, too! Raced it with my friends' 350Z, G37, Mustang 5.0, and IS350 F-Sport and it will keep up for its little 2.0L Turbo, you'd be extremely surprised! 0-60 (motor trend estimated 6.2 0-60 but I got 5.8) compared to their cars, I'd pull ahead on most of them but after 80, the little 4 cyl dies down a lil and the bigger engines pull ahead ofc. 30K miles on this lil guy now and I push him hard ona daily basis and no major issues yet, just regular maintenance at Infiniti and hopefully getting a tuning chip and some new wheels as I have the 18 inch wheels upgrading to the 19's. Good video Kyle! Except, since I dont have the Sport model, does it not come with the limiter because I've hit 140 in this car😂
Dude, got myself a sport trim and i totally agree with everything your saying. The car is insane for that price level. I get comments on a daily basic on how attractive the car is, every-time i put someone on the passenger seat, they gasp with the feel of the car. I mean you can feel yourself being pulled back when it accelerates. And regarding acceleration, i bet i can beat most muscle cars and the same level bmw and Mercedes. I tend to use the paddle shifter of i have to race some one off the light, sheesh it doesn’t feel that its 6 sec. I am glad i bought this instead of a 4 series bmw as i was actually going for that car
@@tysondragneel5371 bro I feel the exact same I got one too only thing that’s frustrates me is that there isn’t a lot of info so when I take my car to car meets it’s a lil hard to explain what car is but I love it man it pushes your head all the way back haha
Way to go Saabkyle04, doing what you're good at, car reviews
It's a first generation Mercedes-Benz GLA underneath, similar to the Chrysler Crossfire having an R170 Mercedes-Benz SLK underneath.
Thanks for putting this review out here Kyle!! I didn't even know this car existed until now. I love how it looks and it seems to be a great value for your money. One thing I noticed is that on start up the engine had an odd sound to me that I didn't necessarily like, however when you stomped on the gas it sounded great from in the cabin and seemed to have plenty of power to "get up and go."
I have a 2016 in brown with the 2.2 diesel with AWD and every option, I really like this car. It‘s a great dailydriver. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
no you don't they launched it in 2017
I haven't watched your videos in a long while and i feel like your reviews have improved. I like how you're doing it now. Good work!
Would definitely have this over the Mercedes, doesn’t look like you’re trying to show off as much.
Debatable. Be forewarned that you're buying a piece of junk...
@Jastine2320 No I don't have the Infiniti but from what I have heard I would never recommend it.
Those roads you were driving on look ideal for car reviews. Almost felt like I was driving. ☺️
I would pick the Infiniti QX30 over the Mercedes because it has a stylish exterior with fascinating details, use of high-quality interior materials and best to drive although expensive to maintain.
Dude, got myself a sport trim a couple of monte ago and the car is insane for that price level. I get comments on a daily basic on how attractive the car is, every-time i put someone on the passenger seat, they gasp with the feel of the car.

Are you still liking it bro? Lol I’m just discovering this vehicle and I’m very interested
@@EARTHSOUL_Asmbrooo I'm getting one next week I will update you if you reply this
@@terrorking6191 yes please let me know I currently have a Honda civic hatch 2020 looking for something more luxurious lol
Best analytical car reviewer out there. Just the facts bumper to bumper, you give the best impression of what the car IS, not telling what you want it to be like Top Gear or Grand Tour.
Regular Car Reviews gets top pick for best comedy reviews. Lol
These reviews are always so satisfying to watch
anybody notice that it had a mercedes chime and a mercedes benz speedometer in the middle
Because half of it is a mercedes. The rest is the design
REXY PASTRANA on god they copied from Mercedes speedometer and start up
@@omriaame6250 They did not copy, they bought it from them.
Omrian Vlog Mercedes and Infiniti partnered to make this car so it has parts from Mercedes
picked up a 19 LUXE with 19K miles for $19323 OTD (had a trade). 28 mos and 41K miles of warranty left. Can't believe it came with halogen headlights, LOL - already ordered LED bulbs.
You cheap out this is what’s gonna happen but you save a lot tho,me too I could just take the halogen and replace it with hid not from the dealership base qx30
Wow great review I miss these reviews. Keep them coming
The most in depth reviews BY FAR! GREAT, to have you back Kyle!
Not that you've gone anywhere, I just enjoy your reviews more than any others because of the technical aspect, as well as your attention to exterior details.
4:15 Are you a robot?
Nah. He used some Autotune 😂
Reminds me a lot of my first car the G20
Put a 1 inch lift kit and AWD on a hatchback and it’s now a crossover.
It's sad that this is the last year of the qx30
GTS Elevators no because Mercedes built this
Literally has a Mercedes chime and gauge cluster screen 😂😂
I have driven both vehicles at great length and the QX30 is significantly better than the GLA!
Unless you get the GLA AMG, the car is cheap crappy plastic and drives like it as well. You don’t even get the shift knob with a GLA unless you get the AMG hahaha.
Out of the AWD and the Sport, the latter is the better option.
For 2k more you can get the 2019 Acura RDX. Much better car and much more room. Styling is just as good if not better. Only way I buy the QX30 would be used. There are some really good used QX30 for under 20K.
6:13
Why is he using a stick to hold the hood up? 😮
Good review and test drive as always!
The Infiniti looks cool and practical!
Great reviews as always kyle
You can buy a good used example of these now for around 25k.
Yayy another review
I just got mine a few days ago & I am IN LOVE. Great Review ❤
Urgh, it looks sooooo good... 😫😍
Why does the temp gauge make it look like its running hot? Is it just bad design or is it actually running hot?
Can you review a 2002 Pontiac sunfire gt pls? Thanks
I really enjoyed the review! Reminds me of the motorweek retro reviews but yours carry more detail.
@9:42 The temperature gauge is way passed the halfway point. Running a little hot.
Francobnyc qx30s run hot af
Throughout the 2 years of ownership, mine sits at that temp all the time when warm
all Mercedes sit at that temp
@@bynjei2530
Great video and the car..❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cool car and Excellent review Kyle
NICE 2018/2019 Infiniti QX30 Sport: Start Up, Test Drive & In Depth Revie
Would to see a Honda Civic touring video!!!!!!!!!!!
I need Toyota Camry 2018/2019 startup
Is that a Renault engine? Sounds a bit like one. Thanks for the nice review. I think I’d take the new Mazda3 hatch instead of this one.
2W3X4YZ5 GLA engine.
@Joe Taylor I’m aware of that. But Merc has been using Renault engines in the A class. They seem to not be proud of it, and seem to be concealing that. Neither Nissan nor Mercedes engines sound like that. Sounds like a Megane 2.0 when it shifts at high revs.
2W3X4YZ5 Smart man! I bet your right.
@@2W3X4YZ5 the ironic thing is, Renault and Nissan are essentially the same company, being part of the Renault-Nissan- Mitsubishi Alliance. So if it were a Renault engine design that would mean instead of sharing the engine directly from it's partner, Nissan decided to add an unnecessary middle man (Mercedes) so it would be such a stupid business move 😂
only the diesel ones are renault engines, petrol ones for q30 and qx30 are all mercedes
Can you do POV drives
Tristin Stephens highly recommend Winding Road Magazine 🙂
I think I should get it so I can complete my line of discontinued cars or vehicles because obviously my goal is to stay with cars that are discontinued duh
0:35 amazing.
Thank you! Your review was👍 like the car but the only bad about qx30 is the engine sound is 😬😬👎
Can you review the 2019/2020 ford f250 limited pls? Thanks
Or just Ford's in general
@@mikewill3176 Yes!
Not if you say "pls". *disgusting*
@@natebrock7352 disgusting*
Nissan for life
M&R Tuning Nah Nissan Sucks, Hyundai For Life
Toyota_CorollaYt xD I cant stop laughing
M&R Tuning XDI Cant Believe You Like Shitsan
Toyota_CorollaYt I just like cars that don’t break down and don’t feel like cheaply made plastic
And my cars have to be fun
That’s why I love Nissan
M&R Tuning Hyundais Are More reliable than you think, They Have Came A Long Way From Their Crappy 90s Cars, And No Nissans Are Reliable, Because My Dad Had An Altima And Its Engine Died After 1 Year Of Ownership, And He Had A Hyundai Accent And It Lasted 225,000 Miles, A Nissan Cant Even Make 150,000 miles
Thats a nice interior
WAIT THIS IS A NISSAN OR A MERCEDES?
I can find one with 6k miles or get a brand new Mazda cx30… any opinion on that?
Startup chime sounds like the Mercedes chime
Bjorn Zarassi because it is
so Kyle i am a big fan of infiniti q60 coupe
Comment cause I wanna support your channel.
I love this car!
New review, cool
I have noticed shifting lurch in the QX30 that I drive on occasion.
Normal/standard behavior for a dual clutch transmission.
That's what I was thinking at the time.
Can you review the new CHEVY BLAZER
review speakers in each car like you were bro
Fun Fact: This video was filmed in October 2017
🤯🤯🤯
Yep, it was
Saabkyle04 what else have you been hiding all these years? looool
A bunch hahaha, too many things to film not enough time to upload
@@saabkyle04 : at leats, you're back!
A Mercedes gla with an Infiniti logo...
Exactly
Fun Fact: *This was shared platform from Mercedes Benz GLA.*
that thing sounds like its a little on the dry side
I like this better than the GLA. But I don't like either of them. Mercedes are unreliable and over priced and I'd be worried about the terrible image you have when you own an Infiniti
How don't know every detail about ever car you review? I'm kinda curious.
How you gonna make push button an option in 2019?
I have a 2017 QX30 (non S) and I spent $40 on Amazon and just put it in the push button start myself since all of these come with Keyless-Go (same as Mercedes) so you can just stick em in
Knavish Never knew that you could do that. Makes sense though since a lot of options just need to be installed, wiring already there.
@@bigdaddyswole but you are right tho... its fucking 2019, WHY DID I EVEN HAVE TO DO THAT!!!!?
Knavish Makers want more money. You can spend $50k+ on a new E-Class and not even have adaptiveCC, yet Honda gives it standard (I believe) now.
@@bigdaddyswole and Makers will continue doing it bc consumers still buy them!
I see many of these about $20,000 or less right now. Do these really suck or something?
yeah that’s why i’m here, these should be like 40k, i wonder if people just want to avoid used mercedes
Aaaaand it just faced the chopping block....
I see only in Europe?
@@saabkyle04 Infiniti is pretty much leaving Europe in general, while axing the QX30 entirely (and it's assembly plant speaking of which is in England).
No it’s only in Europe (at least from what I’ve been hearing lately)
the next gen q30/qx30 is going to be a full infiniti without mercedes, so this gen probably and the next gen wont be in eu, shame cause i just bought one but theyre amazing anyway
0:35
Why does the chime sound more mercedes than Infiniti/Nissan signature chime
@Benito Juárez I have to agree with u on dat
BMW X7 review soon?
Does it have android auto?
Why does the ley and the startup chime look like a Mercedes
Oh I see now
This is built on the mercedes platform this was designed by mercedes.
In 2003- 2008 I fi it I had an fx45 which is the fastest car they ever made with a big V8, I raced mustangs and beat them
It*
I request you to do a 2019 Lincoln Continental Video ! I really love this video ! You do really fun car videos ! You have a good car review channel too !
Motor sounds loud
I love it
Looks like its been in the sun a lil too long
That chime sounds like a Mercedes-Benz
Nice!
It has Mercedes Benz Startup Chime 💀
I feel the lack of views on the review videos comes down to the type of vehicle being reviewed. I don't seem to see many run of the mill cars on here anymore. Just companies boasting their best model vehicle and that's really it. I liked the older kids with older vehicles and classics. I don't see much of any of the big 3 on here anymore and imo that constitutes the lack of views on the review videos. Just my opinion I'll always be a subscriber love the project cars
Owned Infiniti’s last ten years. Have a red sport now so test drove the QX30 for grins waiting on car service the other day. Didn’t care for it. A lot less “sporty” than I expected. And the foot well on passenger side was minuscule. That’s a little picky I know but that’s how horrible it was.
Nice car.
Made in the UK as the Q30
Now all they need to do is drop the GLA45 engine in it
Not everything is about hp bro
Wow everything below the infotainment looks eaxctly like the older mercedes interior. Just cheaper.
2017 INFINITI QX30
The front looks like a 2011 Mazda3 to me.
G H mazda cx9
tinhinnh Maybe a little, I still see a Mazda3 when I look at this car.
Nice
your car reviews are awesome.
😍KYLE, i❤you💋
Mercedes chime??
2012 Jeep Liberty Arctic Yep. I work at a Benz dealership and I can confirm this.
Why does it sound like garbage at 0:35
that is like merc
this the mercedes gal but re bagged
Video Idea: Do an interior detail on the GMC Jimmy by gutting it like the Nissan 240SX
What a lovely GLA you have here Kyle. 😊
You mean a lovely jacked-up Q30 I suppose..
oh yeah we’re just gonna steal Infiniti now llololollolollllilololol
I'm a tech at Infiniti and we all HATE this car 😂😂😂
Mary Hernandez Is it give a lot of problems? Also is the engine just as pricy as a Mercedes engine to fix?
ShoppingBunny yea. It is a Mercedes engine. All the Mercedes labels are still on the infiniti's too. Only place you really see infiniti logos on the car are the front and rear emblems.
Mary Hernandez oh wow thanks so much
Lol, I have the QX30 with all options and I love this car. No problems whatsoever.
@@DoctorSkillz just got one and now I want to take it back I should have reviewed it first
