Having read everything, you can find about the new INFINITI, naturally, you are anxious to get behind the wheel. Test driving the new INFINITI is at the top of your bucket list. You cannot wait to feel all that power.

Before you take that all-important test drive, make sure you know how to get the most out of it. Here are a few tips to help guide you to get the most out of your INFINITI test drive.

Prepare Before Arriving at Our Dealership

While we try to accommodate everyone, who walks in wanting to test drive an INFINITI, you may arrive during a peak period, and we do not want you inconvenienced. Call ahead and schedule an appointment to test drive the INFINITI of your choice.

Our dealership will make sure the vehicle you want to test drive is not blocked by other vehicles. We will make sure everything is ready for your test drive. We understand how important this is to you

Make Sure Your Lifestyle Fits the INFINITI vehicle

If you have a small child, bring the car seat along to make sure it fits in the INFINITI you want. Maybe you play the cello. We understand how important that cello is to your happiness. Bring it along and make sure it fits in the cargo space or that the seats fold to accommodate it.

Measure your garage. If you have a small space, you want to know ahead of time if your new INFINITI will fit in your garage.

Learn the Vehicle Before You Start the Car

When you open the INFINITI’s door, make sure you leave enough headroom to comfortably get in the car. The same goes for leg room. The last person who drove the car may be short. You may be very tall. Ask our representative to demonstrate ways to make the INFINITI accessible for you personally. Take a moment and sit in the back seats. If you carry passengers, you want to know the comfort level of the rear seats.

Our representative will demonstrate the steering wheel adjustments. Tilting and telescoping will help adjust the steering wheel to your position of comfort. Once seated in the vehicle, look over the steering wheel and dash. Make sure nothing limits your vision. Unfamiliar gauges and knobs may seem a bit daunting. No worries, our representative will show you how each gauge functions and tell you its purpose.

Drive Your Normal Routes

Whenever feasible, try to drive your normal route to work and home. You want to get a feel for the car on roads already familiar to you. It can be difficult to pay attention to new roads and notice how the INFINITI performs.

If you live far away or your commute is too long, try to drive similar roads to your usual driving route. If you typically take the highway to work, make sure you drive the INFINITI on a highway to experience the conditions. The same goes for back roads.

Test the INFINITI Do Not Push Its Limits

Tempting as it may be, we prefer you stick to the speed limit rather than see if the INFINITI goes faster than 120 miles per hour. Check its acceleration. Make sure it feels responsive when you accelerate and downshift. Notice the sound of the engine when you accelerate.

Brake normally and make sure you feel comfortable with the braking system. When driving the INFINITI on a rough road, make sure your ride feels smooth and comfortable. The suspension should not feel stiff or spongy. Make sure you notice how the INFINITI handles turns.

We invite you to review our current inventory and come in to our dealership when you are ready to take a test drive.
