- The 2011 Infiniti QX is conceived to attract and hold viewers' attention,
conveying its underlying sense of power and strength. The design is dynamic, its
size capable of transporting eight adults and their belongings with spacious
elegance. Inside the distinctive QX body is an interior long on luxury and
convenience, including standard Infiniti Hard Drive Navigation System, Around
View? Monitor, Bose® 2-channel, 13-speaker Premium Audio System, available
perforated semi-aniline leather seating, and available DVD entertainment system
with dual 7-inch color monitors which allows different sources to be played at
the same time. The 2011 QX also offers ample 1st and 2nd row roominess and
generous luggage space.
The 2011 QX combines a 400-horsepower 5.6-liter
V8 engine with Infiniti's VVEL (Variable Valve Event & Lift) and Direct
Injection Gasoline (DIG?) system with a refined 7-speed automatic transmission -
providing a 25% increase in horsepower and more than a 10% increase in fuel
economy versus the 2010 QX. The new QX's towing capacity is rated at 8,500
pounds for both 2WD and 4WD models.
For the first time ever on an
Infiniti vehicle, a new Hydraulic Body Motion Control system is offered
(available on both 2WD and 4WD models as part of the Deluxe Touring Package,
which also includes 22-inch wheels and tires and a number of other features).
The system helps reduce body lean while turning for a more comfortable
ride.
Included among the new QX's standard premium entertainment and
technology features are an 8-inch WVGA color touch-screen display, Infiniti
Controller for use with the vehicle information systems and comfort and
convenience features, and the Infiniti Hard Drive Navigation System with XM
NavTraffic® with Real-Time Traffic Information, XM NavWeather? with Real-Time
Weather and 3-day forecast (XM® subscription required, sold separately) and
Zagat Survey® Restaurant Guide. Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System is standard,
as is XM® Satellite Radio, USB connection for use with iPod® Interface or other
compatible devices, and Streaming Audio via Bluetooth®.
The new Infiniti
QX also offers a range of advanced technology systems, including Infiniti's Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) systems. A new Blind
Spot Warning (BSW) system is also available. It illuminates an indicator light
if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot area. If the driver then
activates the turn signal, the indicator flashes and an audible warning sounds.
Optional on the new QX is Infiniti's advanced Intelligent Cruise Control
(Full-Speed Range), Distance Control Assist (DCA), Intelligent Brake Assist
(IBA) with Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Front Pre-Crash Seat Belts.
