2011 Infiniti QX56 Hits the Web

admin — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 15:42:21 +0000

I guess someone forgot to tell Infiniti SUV’s are dead – as the 2011 Infiniti QX56 hits websites for an early unveil. We are a little bit surprised Infiniti went in the direction of such a large vehicle – in a time when people are are clambering for smaller, fuel efficient cars. The new 2011 Infiniti QX will be unveiling at the 2010 New York Auto Show.

It’s essentially a revised 2010 Nissan Patrol; the 2011 QX wears Infiniti badges and restyled front and rear surfaces. Underneath, QX contains a reworked 5.6-liter V-8, which pumps out 400 horsepower and 405 pound-feet of torque. A seven-speed automatic doles the power to the electronically-controlled four-wheel drive system. With a fuel economy of only 12 – 17 city/highway you won’t get far on long road trips, but you’ll look great cruising around the suburbs…if you can afford the approx. $56,000 starting price.

So we ask you, would you purchase an over-sized Infiniti SUV like this 2011 QX56? Compared to other rides from Nissan/Infiniti’s line up, QX looks like a dinosaur. Will it bring in enough sales to warrant continued production? Stay tuned.

I Spy a 2011 Inifniti QX

The 2011 Infiniti QX is well on its way as these new spy pictures make the case. Weirdly the images show a very close resemblance to the next-generation Nissan Patrol (called the Safari in some markets). Apart from different front and rear ends as well as wheel arches, the two could very well be the same vehicle. Some observers have noted that the design is adapted from the Terranaut Concept car presented at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show while others recognize vehicles like the Ford Flex and Kia Soul.

Power is likely to be sourced from the Infiniti FX50′s 5.0-litre V8 which has 287kW (390hp). Critics have said since the current QX56 is based on the highly capable Nissan Titan, its ride comfort is not up to par with competitors like the Lexus LX. Therefore some improvements are expected on that front.
