Watch 2015 Infiniti Q50S Video Review - Alex On Autos

In a sector dominated by the BMW 3-Series, the Infiniti Q50 was the successor to the G37, which was a successor to the G35 that brought the Infiniti brand to the forefront of the fight for entry-level luxury sports sedan buyers.

But the Q50 isn't selling especially well. Challengers are numerous, from compatriots like the Lexus IS and Acura TLX to other Germans like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Audi A4 to less obvious machines like the Cadillac ATS and Volvo S60.

But while the Q50 isn't as overwhelmingly popular as that first G35, it's not an uncommon car. And it's certainly a high-tech machine. This Alex On Autos video review of the 2015 Infiniti Q50S, available for viewing in 4K, will be the most thorough and detailed video review you'll find on the web.

GCBC hasn't yet had an opportunity to review a Q50, although we'd love to. Our most recent Infiniti review involves the JX35, now known as the QX60. GCBC has also reviewed the Audi S4 and Mercedes-Benz C400, two prime Q50 rivals, as well as the Acura TLX V6 AWD.

GCBC's Most Popular Auto Sales Figures - May 2015

GCBC's review of the V6-engined 2015 Ford Mustang continues to be, by far, the most popular review on the site. In addition, the Mustang's sales tracking page is GCBC's second most popular, trailing only the Ford F-Series' page. 

Mustang sales are up 60% to 42,955 units in the United States so far this year. An EcoBoost-equipped Mustang Convertible is scheduled to land at GCBC Towers in the coming weeks. The F-Series is the best-selling vehicle line in both the U.S. and in Canada.

Readers looked at our complete April 2015 U.S. brand-by-brand sales rankings more often than any other April-related sales article on GoodCarBadCar.

Automobile manufacturers will begin reporting their May 2015 U.S. and Canadian sales figures on Tuesday, June 2, 2015. GoodCarBadCar will be updated throughout the day with brand results from automakers competing in the United States and Canada.

Auto News For Friday, May 29, 2015 - Massive Recalls Underway

Here are the five must-read, must-watch auto news stories, reviews, and videos for Friday, May 29, 2015.

INSIDE THE AUTO BUSINESS
May auto sales may be the strongest they've been in a year, but they might not look that way because the auto selling month was a day shorter this year than last.

TTAC
U.S. sales of midsize cars are down 4% through the first four months of 2015. The overall new vehicle market is moving in the opposite direction.

REVIEW
Although we take offense at Automobile magazine's opening to their second paragraph, "Boring sales stats aside," this review of the new 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and Plug-In Hybrid is worth reading.

WATCH
Jalopnik boss Travis Okulski isn't yet supposed to tell us what it's like to drive the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata. But he's allowed to drive it and show us what it's like to drive. So former Jalopnik EIC Matt Hardigree suggested this morning that you watch this video of Okulski driving the Mazda with the auto-captioning system on. Just press the little cc in the bottom right. "Did you get that mail I was a brilliant song perennial."

RECALL

Ford is recalling 361,523 Ranger pickup trucks (model year 2004-2006) because, "the affected vehicles are equipped with a passenger side frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrustion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture."

Mitsubishi is recalling 82,784 Lancers and Lancer Evolutions (2004-2006) and Lancer Sportbacks (2004) because, likewise, "the affected vehicles are equipped with a passenger side frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrustion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture."

Moving on, Ford is recalling 1,019,081 Mustangs (2005-2014) and GTs (2005-2006) because, you guessed it, "the affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture."

BMW is recalling 420,661 copies of the 325i, 325xi, 330i, 330xi, 325xi Sportswagons, 325i Sportswagons (2002-2005); 330Ci, 325Ci, M3 convertibles, 325i coupes, 330i coupes, and M3 coupes (2002-2006); M5, 540i, 525i, 530i, and 540i/525i Sportswagons (2002-2003), and X5s (3.0i and 4.4i) from model years 2003-2004 because, "the affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture." 

You get the idea. The same problem is causing a recall of 4,066,732 Dodge Ram 2500s (2005-2009), Dodge Ram 1500s and Durangos (2004-2008), Dodge Ram 3500s (2006-2009), Dodge Ram 4500s and 5500s (2008-2010), Chrysler Aspens (2007-2008), Chrysler 300s (2005-2010), Dodge Chargers and Magnums (2005-2010), Dodge Dakotas (2005-2011), and Mitsubishi Raiders (2006-2010). Another FCA US LLC recall affected 438,156 Ram 1500s, 2500s, and 3500s from model year 2003 in order to, "address a safety defect in the passenger side frontal air bag inflator which may produce excessive internal pressure causing the inflator to rupture upon deployment of the air bag."

Oh, Takata.

2015 Toyota Avalon Limited Review - It's Either A Junior Lexus Or A Camry+, Which Means It An Avalon

Choosing your Avalon will be easy. Toyota Canada offers the car in only three grades. 

The XLE serves as the base trim, but it's still a $40,000 Toyota with leather seats, keyless access, dual zone climate control, and a sunroof. The Avalon Limited requires another $2095 and adds HID headlamps with LED DRLs, blind spot monitoring, nicer leather, heated and cooled seating, and a bunch of other items.

During the middle of May, we spent a week driving around Halifax, Nova Scotia, in a 2015 Toyota Avalon Limited loaned to us by Toyota Canada, but this car was also fitted with the $3100 premium package: JBL 11-speaker audio, heated rear seats, pre-collision, auto high beams, rear seat climate control, radar cruise control, and a power rear window sunshade. 

THE GOOD • Massive rear seat • Easy control layout • Unimpeachable build quality • A hint of junior Lexus • Shocking real-world mileage

THE BAD • Whither the bolstering? • Overall quiet makes tire hum obvious • The Camry+ aura • Not exactly a handler • Poor brake feel

As ever, the fourth-generation Toyota Avalon is related to the Camry, Canada's best-selling midsize car. The Avalon is only 4.4 inches longer and 104 pounds heavier and shares the engine of the 2015 Camry XSE V6 we drove this past winter. The Avalon is also obviously related to the Lexus ES, which offers a cabin that's only 2% smaller and a trunk that's only 5% smaller. As a result of its connections to two popular cars which bear a number of key similarities, the Avalon has always found it difficult to locate its niche. 

Not since 2005 has Toyota Canada sold more than 2000 copies of the Avalon in a single year. Since 2006, Toyota has averaged fewer than 800 annual Canadian sales. After 2013's year-over-year trebling of volume to 1264 sales, 2014 Avalon volume slid 21%. 

Toyota is refreshing the fourth-generation Avalon for the 2016 model year – sales are down 14% through April – so we're taking a look at this outgoing model. Yes, choosing your Avalon will be easy, but finding one? It's never a common car on the lots of Toyota's Canadian dealerships, but don't be surprised if later this year a few remaining 2015s can be had with impressive discounts.  

INNER STRENGTH
Inside, the Avalon is a space at least as special as a $45,000 car ought to be. The design isn't standard midsize-car-plus-more-features, the quality of the workmanship is high, and there are special elements. The broad control structure with the centre touchscreen is intuitive and slightly canted toward the driver. Seams and shutlines and surfaces are elegantly done. And the way the heated/ventilated seat stalks rise out of the centre console, toggle right for heat and left for cool, and then punch back in place is a surprisingly special moment for a sedan from a high-volume automaker.

2015 TOYOTA AVALON LIMITED Base Price: $39,938 * As-Tested Price: $45,133 * Drive Type: front-wheel-drive Transmission: 6-speed automatic Engine: 3.5L DOHC 24-valve V6 Horsepower: 268 @ 6200 rpm Torque: 248 lb-ft @ 4700 rpm Curb Weight: 3582 pounds Length: 195.3 inches Width: 72.2 inches Height: 57.5 inches Wheelbase: 111.0 inches Tires: Pirelli Sottozero Tire Size: 225/45R18 Passenger Volume: 2897 litres Cargo Volume: 453 litres EPA City: 21 MPG EPA Highway: 31 MPG NRCAN OEE City: 11.3 L/100km NRCAN OEE Hwy: 7.5 L/100km Observed: 31.4 mpg Observed: 7.5 L/100km * Canadian dollars, includes $1753 in fees.

The front seats are certainly suited to a bulkier couple, however, and I was never able to find the ideal
driving position. The steering wheel doesn't dive low enough or reach far enough. The seat bottoms are flat and seat backs are poorly bolstered. "Securely ensconced" is not a phrase that comes to mind.

Yet just a few feet behind, rear seat passengers are treated to a lounge suitable for a trio of adults if need be. Toyota didn't skimp on finishes in the back. Rear seat passengers are also treated to their own climate controls. A shade operated by the driver powers up to the rear for added UV protection. 

An expansive rear seat is what separates the Avalon from many midsize cars, but it's worth noting that Toyota's own intermediate Camry offers very impressive rear quarters, as well. Officially, the Avalon's rear leg room is three-tenths of an inch greater, shoulder room is four-tenths of an inch superior, and head room in the Camry is one-tenth of an inch taller.

ON THE MOVE
Yet the driving experience is markedly different. Granted, the most recent Camry we tested was the surprisingly sporting XSE example. And it's also true that the current Avalon rides far more firmly and handles with greater agility than the Avalon of 2005-2012. But unless you're getting out of an old Avalon (or another traditional full-size car) and into the 2015 Avalon, you're more likely to equate the driving experience in this car with Calais than Camaro.

It's not that the Avalon floats like a Detroit barge of the 70s, but it's focussed on cosseting in a way few cars are these days. That's not inherently a bad thing, but it's too bad that the Avalon's steering lacks all manner of feel and isn't particularly responsive. The brake pedal also lacks any kind of progressive feel, and the Avalon's braking performance feels like you're bringing an Avalon-and-a-half to a halt.

It's motivated, however. Toyota's venerable 3.5L V6 has been around in 268-horsepower form for a decade, but it continues to feel like its pumping out more than the reported ponies. The 2GR-FE is smooth and refined and builds deliberately to its power peak at 6200 rpm. (So quiet is the running 3.5L and so silenced is the rush of wind passing by that the Pirelli Sottozero winter tire hum was too noticeable inside the Avalon, not because road noise is so bad but because there is no other noise.)

Don't be so surprised that the 3.5L that powers the Camry so easily propels the Avalon, too. This Avalon weighs only 100 pounds more than the Camry XSE V6 we drove earlier this year, which makes the Toyota 558 pounds lighter than the all-wheel-drive Buick LaCrosse we reviewed in March.

RIVALS
That LaCrosse is certainly among the Avalon's most direct rivals. The Buick is marked down for its smaller trunk. The Kia Cadenza may fail the prestige test in comparison with the Lexus ES but lines up nicely against the Avalon.

The Ford Taurus drives nicely but it's cabin feels snug in contrast with the Avalon. A basic Hyundai Genesis comes standard with all-wheel-drive, feels very upmarket, and provides a slightly more athletic driving feel than the Avalon. 

If you can get past its overly light steering, the Chevrolet Impala LTZ's overall package is very enticing. Don't forget about the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Nissan Maxima, or the Lincoln MKZ.

SET APART
Yet for all its similarities with the Camry, the 2015 Toyota Avalon Limited is set apart from its direct rivals by coming across as a Toyota-badged Lexus. Unfortunately for Toyota, the Avalon's legendary reputation for reliability, an exterior that's more handsome than ever, and a dynamic envelope that's satisfying to a greater cross-section of the populace won't likely alter the fact that Canadians will hardly buy any. It's not just the Avalon – Canadians hardly buy any of the Avalon's rivals, either.
