TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2014 Infiniti Q70 sedan range is fast, fun-to-drive, better to look at, and comfortable--a world-class combination.

Had enough with the stoicism and tech overload of German flagships? The 2014 Jaguar XJ is a completely different kind of luxury car, with swinging style, a light, lean driving character, and a wide range of engines--including a new high-performance 550-hp XJR

TCC Likes

Balanced, engaging handling
Stylish and useful interior
Sensual, stand-out exterior design

A design like no other
Efficient supercharged V-6
Brash yet comfortable XFR performance model

TCC Dislikes

Rough-sounding V-6
Can be noisy and harsh in the cabin
Adding tech items quickly boosts the price

A few design details miss the mark
Rear headroom
Brightwork overload inside
