Elevated Driving
Because what matters most is the pleasure you take in your journey, every INFINITI heightens your control to enhance the exhilarating feeling of forward momentum. Feel connected to the road with intuitive performance.
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
You won’t let anything prevent you from reaching your destination. With Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, you can embark with perfect confidence. In less than ideal conditions, it sends power to select wheels, providing added traction and control. When roads clear, it returns that power to the rear, so your vehicle hugs every bend.
Front Midship Platform
Your drive deserves to be unencumbered. It’s the reason we developed the INFINITI Front Midship Platform. Inspired by high-performance racing technology, the platform sets your engine behind the front axle, centering your vehicle’s weight, enabling quick steering response and precise balance through every curve.
