- All-New Infiniti M56 and M37 Feature More Power, Magnetic Design, Luxurious Interior and World's First Blind Spot Intervention? System -

Performance reshaped to ignite invigoration. Luxury alive to the human touch. Industry-first technology honed to anticipate. Of all the ways used to describe Infiniti's all-new halo sedan, the 2011 Infiniti M, it all perhaps comes down to one word - Inspired. This next-generation M embraces the essence of all things Infiniti - style, performance, luxury, craftsmanship and technology. "The 2011 Infiniti M embodies all of our best thinking, design and quality to date," said Ben Poore, vice president, Infiniti Business Unit. "It builds on the strengths of the previous generation, delivering a performance luxury experience crafted to a higher standard." The 2011 Infiniti M will be offered in M37 and M56 model designations when it goes on sale at Infiniti retailers nationwide in spring 2010. The M37 features a refined 3.7-liter V6 engine with increased power and fuel economy (versus the previous generation M35's 3.5-liter V6). The M56 also offers more power and better fuel economy from an all-new 5.6-liter V8 (versus the previous generation M45's 4.5-liter V8). Both the M37 and M56 engines feature Infiniti's advanced VVEL (Variable Valve Event & Lift) system and all models are equipped with a standard 7-speed automatic transmission. The M56 engine also utilizes Direct Injection Gasoline? (DIG) technology. The M37 and M56 are available in both rear-wheel drive and with Infiniti's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. A special Sport Package, offered on rear-wheel drive models only, offers 4-wheel Active Steer (4WAS), sport-tuned suspension, Sport Brakes and 20-inch wheels and tires.

 

Affording "superior overall crash protection among vehicles in its class," the all-new Infiniti EX35 has earned an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety TOP SAFETY PICK award for 2008[1]. With a highest rating of good in the Institute's front, side, and rear tests and standard Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC), the EX35 was praised by Institute president Adrian Lund as a "leader in its class for state-of-the art-safety."
