Infiniti QX30 Performance Overview

Infiniti’s subcompact crossover entry ran for a short 2017 to 2018 production span, with performance defined by a single gasoline formula across 5 verified tests. Every tested QX30 used the turbocharged 2.0-liter M270 inline-four rated at 208 hp, so the model’s story is less about major hardware changes than about trim-level and test variation within one brief generation. The range covered 0-60 runs from 6.8 seconds in the 2017 Premium 2.0t down to 6.2 seconds in the 2017 S 2.0t, while quarter-mile results clustered in the mid-14s.

At launch in 2017, the quickest recorded example was the S 2.0t at 6.2 seconds to 60 mph, establishing the early benchmark for the line. Other 2017 results showed the same basic character, including the Premium 2.0t at 6.8 seconds and another Premium 2.0t run at 6.4. By 2018, the quickest published quarter-mile came from the Premium 2.0t at 14.8 seconds @ 94 mph, and that same trim matched the model’s all-time best 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. Today, the QX30 stands as a narrowly focused, gasoline-only 2017-2018 model whose independently tested performance remained consistently in the low-6-second 0-60 and high-14-second quarter-mile range.
