First of all greetings from Romania,hopefully everyone knows where is located this country.
I joined this comunity since for a while I started to look at Infiniti cars,I like very much the design of this japanese cars.
Right now I am driving a Mazda CX5 2L gasoline AWD made in 2013
Recently I discovered infiniti M35H and I am seriously looking into buying such car even if everyone is saying that Infiniti is a bad brand and I will have issues with the car.
I like the idea of having an elegant car but still sporty,with a powerfull engine but with also a good MPG.
One more thing to take into consideration is the taxes you will pay for such a big engine for a standard petrol engine compared with hybrid model.
Yearly taxes is only 5% for hybrid compared with taxes you will pay for a regulas gas 3,5L engine.
I am talking about 70 euro vs 1500 euro in terms of yearly taxes for this car.
This is the story with Europe,you pay a lot for a big capacity engines so hybrid car should be a a good alternative.
I must say also that Infiniti is not present in my country anymore,they left some years ago,i read about the fact that the company probably will leave completly Europe at some point but still I am looking for a car like this.
The car i saw is located in Germany,at a privat second owner,it has almost 100k km and is made in 2013.
First owner performed the service at the authorised dealer but since 2018 when car has changed the owner service was performed in a different work shop.
The big question is:should I go for such car despite all of this challenges I might have?
Does anyone know or at least can provide an estimation of the cost of replacing HV battery?
This is what I can see as a first big cost in the near future.
Any advice it will be highly appreciated!
) and I recently purchased a 2012 M35h (here it’s called it Nissan Fuga Hybrid) with 158,000kms on it straight from Japan auction and shipped to my home country.
