2011 Infiniti G

Tested vehicle: 2012 Infiniti G25 Journey 4-door
Rating applies to 2007-13 models

The Infiniti G35 was redesigned for the 2007 model year and renamed the G37 in the 2009 model year because the engine size was increased. Beginning with 2011 models, a smaller engine was added, and this version was named the G25. Collectively, all 2007 and later models are referred to as the Infiniti G.
