NASHVILLE, Tenn. – INFINITI today announced the 2017 INFINITI Q50 has been recognized by TrueCar, Inc.'s data and analytics subsidiary, ALG, with the 2020 ALG Pre-Owned Value Award. The Pre-Owned Value Award (POVA) recognizes three-year- old vehicles that are forecasted to depreciate the least over the subsequent 36 months in the used market.
Based on ALG's residual value forecast for the 2017 model year, the pre-owned INFINITI Q50 has a higher residual value than other vehicles in the premium midsize market. This is the second year in the row an INFINITI vehicle has won ALG's premium midsize POVA, with the 2016 INFINITI QX70 securing the award in 2019.
"We are proud to see that the 2017 Q50 has received the Pre-Owned Value Award," said Jeff Pope, Group Vice President of INFINITI Americas. "This award showcases the commitment our engineers have to consistently creating long lasting, quality vehicles for our customers while also ensuring that our customers feel they are making a wise investment."
The 2020 POVA's are based on ALG's proprietary forecast model, which uses a variety of macro, industry, segment and vehicle factors to arrive at the most accurate prediction of a vehicle's future value. 2020 POVA's are awarded to vehicles with the lowest forecast depreciation from two to five years of age.
The 2017 INFINTI Q50 sports sedan includes INFINITI InTouch Navigation, and combines stylish, purposeful proportions and aggressive stance, providing a powerful statement of the sports performance awaiting the driver. The lean, robust body sides anchor the performance stance with a strong, solid "bone" and arched roofline. The interior environment offers a powerful blend of three-dimensional textures, combining modern luxury and user-focused technology.
