Q for cars, QX for when that car is lifted, and a number divisible by ten denoting how high the starting price is in relation to the rest of the lineup. Done! How did G, M, EX, JX, FX, and QX get a pass? The only issues are that the QX70 has the wrong name and the current QX60 is on the wrong platform.

That’s a good looking car, even if it looks like a big Altima. Did they sell any? I never see them

Because it messed up ~20 years of precedent.

deNysschen is a bit of a one trick pony.

I think the word ‘confusing’ is being used slightly incorrectly here. It’s less ‘confusing’. More ‘indistinct and unmemorable’.

Generally, if a manufacturer uses alphanumeric model names, different vehicle lines are named with different first letters.

The genericide of “Q” means that “Q” is now only a marketing term and means nothing other than “it’s an Infiniti.”
