Infiniti reveals all new QX50 in Los Angeles

Infiniti has revealed the all new QX50 - a premium mid-size Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) with world-first technologies, stand-out design and unrivalled interior space, all on an entirely new platform - ahead of the Los Angeles Auto Show.

Remaining true to the design of the QX50 Concept and QX Sport Inspiration, the all new Infiniti QX50's aerodynamic exterior reinterprets Infiniti's distinctive Powerful Elegance design language and signature design cues for the SUV segment. It combines a confident stance with intelligent packaging, while deep character lines highlight the influence of human artistry in the design process.

The all new Infiniti QX50 is built an all new platform, featuring a front-engine, front-wheel drive based layout. Engineered with flexibility of application in mind, the new platform sets new standards for refinement, rigidity and interior space in the compact premium SUV segment.

The unrivalled interior space, artistic application of high-quality materials, and advanced craftsmanship make the cabin as welcoming and comfortable as it is flexible. Driver-centric, yet passenger-minded, the all new Infiniti QX50 offers a package of technologies to enhance the driving experience. Its asymmetric layout and calm, connected ambience is designed to meet different needs of the driver and passengers.

The VC-Turbo engine is the world's first production-ready variable compression ratio engine, transforming on demand. A breakthrough in combustion engine design, the 2.0-litre VC-Turbo engine adjusts its compression ratio to optimise power and efficiency. It combines the power of a 2.0-litre turbocharged gasoline engine with the torque and efficiency of a four-cylinder diesel engine. A compelling alternative to diesel, it challenges the notion that only hybrid and diesel powertrains can deliver high torque and efficiency.

The QX50 also features ProPILOT Assist technologies that react discreetly and autonomously to certain driving situations, supporting the driver with a range of empowering 'co-pilot' features, placing them in total control.
