- The INFINITI QX full-size luxury SUV had its best February with sales of 1,162, up 28.8 percent over prior year.
“In February, INFINITI’s corporate partnership of NCAA Men’s Basketball helped us get the word out about our full-line of luxury performance automobiles, helping us set records for the INFINITI G Line and INFINITI QX,” said Ben Poore, vice president, INFINITI Americas. “In March, the next expression of our Inspired Performance, the INFINITI JX 7-passenger luxury crossover, goes on sale nationwide at our retailers.”
The all-new INFINITI JX, the brand’s first crossover with three-row seating, offers the World’s First Blind Spot Intervention System, which detects obstacles when backing out of a parking space and automatically applies the brakes to help avoid a potential impact. In addition, the JX has an innovative middle seat that provides ample entry to the third row without removing a child safety seat that is secured in the second row, and is expected to have best-in-class fuel economy.
Also in March, at the Geneva Motor Show, INFINITI will debut the EMERG-E, a sports car concept featuring a range-extending, mid-ship hybrid powertrain that offers performance and zero emission capability.
