Genesis can’t gain traction in the flagship sedan space. The G90 is well-reviewed but widely ignored, with nearly four times more cars on lots than sold.
Infiniti QX55: A coupe SUV nobody asked for
Coupe-styled crossovers are a tough sell—and Infiniti’s QX55 proves it. Sales are sluggish, and dealer lots are overflowing.
