Product Overview

Infiniti QX30 is a subcompact hatchback marketed as "crossover" in production from 2016. It is available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.1 liters.
Essentially a rebadged Mercedes X156 GLA, Nissan used the underpinnings from Mercedes and skinned it to cut costs. Interestingly, the vehicle was discontinued as the production of the X156 ended. Ostensibly, this allowed Nissan a more "European-focused" vehicle, while Mercedes just sold more.

Reviewers from carwow have found:
The Infiniti QX30 has borrowed many elements from the luxurious Mercedes A-Class. While the car is quiet and smooth to drive, it suffers from unresponsive handling and a lack of rear space. The low roofline will provide a tough time for an adult, as will the lack of legroom. The infotainment is subpar, too.
Pros
  • Well-built cabin
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Decent infotainment
Cons
  • Unresponsive handling
  • Lack of rear space
