“The vehicle is still comparatively new, but so far we're very pleased with it. The G35x we traded in had accumulated 138k miles and, besides being fun to drive, had been relatively trouble free - significant reasons for getting another Infinity, particularly when we discovered that the weak G35 brakes had been markedly improved.”
2015 INFINITI Q40: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The biggest change for 2015 is the name: INFINITI renamed the outgoing G37 Sedan as the Q40 for its final model year. This is a light lineup update rather than a redesign, with the same V6 and automatic transmission.
About the 2015 INFINITI Q40
Fourth-generation G sedan platform (V36), final year; 2015 is the only year this sedan used the Q40 name before production ended.
Infiniti positions the Q40 as a premium sport sedan built around strong V6 power, sharp responses, and an upscale cabin rather than the newest tech trend. Official material emphasizes its dramatic styling, crafted interior, and engaging performance, while independent reviews point to the same core appeal: quick acceleration and a traditional sport-sedan driving feel. For most buyers, the Q40 is the simpler, more driver-focused alternative in Infiniti’s sedan range.
The 2015 Q40 is a well-equipped premium sport sedan sold in rear-wheel-drive Q40 and all-wheel-drive Q40 AWD versions. Both pair a 328-hp 3.7-liter V6 with leather seating, heated power front seats, xenon headlights, a 7-inch display, a rearview camera, Bluetooth, and push-button start.
