Infiniti model update. Limited-luxury: the Infiniti QX70 crossover has again “tightened its face”

The QX70 2017 is packed with standard features and a breathtakingly sharp design. However, the car lacks the agility that other SUVs offer, but that's no reason to turn your back on the car. Some of the attributes of Infiniti are not repeated anywhere else. For example, original styling, simple but modern technology, sporty performance - all this will make you opt for the 2017 QX70. The luxury crossover sport utility segment is an indication of the growing popularity of this class of cars, which offers a variety of different vehicles.

Despite this, the new QX70 still stands out from the rest of the crossovers, as it can combine both an SUV and a sports car. In addition to looks, the car offers a sporty ride as well as ease of handling. The interior is rather restrained, but its high quality finishes and the presence of a large number of simple but modern technological solutions make the car truly premium.

However, the QX70 is disappointing in some ways. For example, dependent suspension, a modest set of trim levels and a relatively small interior space are somewhat dissuaded from purchasing a car. Therefore, everyone will decide for himself whether it is worth buying this SUV, because some motorists will like all the functions, while others will prefer alternatives such as, or -Coupe.

Internal and external arrangement

Infiniti, as already noted, was greedy in terms of trim levels for the QX70: only one trim level will be offered by the company to buyers in 2017. The only choice will be rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

Standard equipment on the new QX70 includes keyless entry and ignition, sport fog lights, automatic bi-xenon headlamps, 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic climate control, tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, premium leather upholstery, sunroof, folding mirrors with heated, auto-adjust and heated front seats, 1-to-2 folding rear seats, and auto-dimming rear-view mirror.

Some of the electronic features available on the new Infiniti include a USB audio interface, CD player, satellite and HD radio. Surround quality sound is guaranteed by the Bose audio system. In addition, the interactive system is quite easy to control using a 7-inch color touch screen. The rear view camera will allow you to monitor the traffic behind the vehicle.


All available options for additional options are grouped into packages. For example, the Premium package includes aluminum roof rails, voice control of vehicle systems, rear parking sensors, a panoramic camera, a high-precision navigation system, and an 8-inch infotainment system screen.

The Deluxe package will include maple wood trim, a sunshade, perforated front seats and 20-inch wheels.

Finally, the Sport package includes contrast stitching, manual seat height support for all seats, dark-toned exterior trim, adaptive xenon headlights and 21-inch alloy wheels.

Engine Specifications

Responsible for the performance of the car is a 3.7-liter 6-cylinder engine that generates 325 horsepower and 267 Nm of torque. Infiniti offered QX70 users the only transmission system available for 2017, which is automatic. Rear-wheel drive is standard, while all-wheel drive is available as an option.

During the automaker's own test drive, its own test drive, the all-wheel drive version of the crossover showed a fairly average performance. The mark of 100 km / h is reached on the speedometer in 6.2 seconds. The maximum towing capacity of the SUV version with all-wheel drive is an impressive 908 kg.

In terms of fuel economy estimates, the rear-wheel drive version of the QX70 averages 12.4 liters per 100 km, while the all-wheel drive consumes about 13.1 liters.

Price and date of entry into the markets

Expect a redesigned Infiniti Kyu-X 70 2017 at the end of this year. The cost of the car, according to MSRP, will be about 46 thousand dollars.


The second-generation Infiniti QX70 crossover has been produced since 2008, while the model was originally known under the FX index and received its current name only at the end of 2013.

In 2014, the off-road vehicle underwent a restyling, during which Infiniti specialists refreshed the look of the model and improved its technical equipment. The update benefited the car, so even today the Ku X 70 remains one of the best-selling crossovers in its class.

Exterior




The muscular body of the 2017-2018 Infiniti QX70 has smooth, but at the same time aggressive curves, so it immediately becomes clear that we have a car with a sporty character.

From the front, a formidable squint of slanted bi-xenon headlights, a huge chrome grille and a embossed hood catch your eye. Massive alloy wheels flaunt here on the wheels. In the basic configuration, they are 20-inch, and in the top ones (Sport and Hi-Tech) they are 21 inches in diameter.



The car received massive body pillars and small windows, which made its design even more lean, but because of this, visibility suffered somewhat. On the crossover, a drop-down roof and sidewalls tapering towards the stern - this decision made it possible to give the appearance lightness, while negatively affecting the practicality of the cabin.

In general, the appearance of the Infiniti Ku X 70 is no longer as impressive as in the early years of the model's production, but the language does not turn out to be called the design of the "seventy" outdated. On the road, such a car still catches the eye, emphasizing the status of the owner, and this, you see, is worth a lot.

Salon

In the cabin, the age of the model is still felt, and some elements here no longer create the effect of premium, as in the early years of the crossover on the market.

Take at least the dashboard. It looks bright and easy to read, but the monochrome display located in the middle immediately reminds you that the Infiniti QX 70 II generation has been in production for almost 10 years. However, there are not many really outdated design elements in the cabin, and they are hardly noticeable.

For interior decoration, the Japanese used only high-quality materials - leather and soft plastic. The latter can be found here not only on the front panel, but even in the lower part of the cabin (for example, on the central tunnel), which not all competitors can boast of.

The steering wheel and driver's seat in Ku X 70 please with a wide range of adjustments, so that a person of any configuration can comfortably accommodate here. The seat itself is very comfortable and does not restrict movement in the slightest, while tightly holding the rider even on steep turns.

All the most important controls are right at your fingertips. Their location is intuitive and easy to remember. You will only have to get used to a multimedia system with a modest screen and not the brightest graphics.

The fact is that the Japanese offer to control the functions of the entertainment complex from a washer, unsuccessfully located at the very top of the center console. The screen itself is touch-sensitive, but the driver will still have to reach either for it or for the aforementioned puck, which is not very convenient to do while driving.

In addition, there is a clear lack of storage space in the car. The cabin has only a few small niches and drawers for small things.

Characteristics

Dimensions Infiniti QX70 are 4865, 1925 and 1650 mm in length, width and height, respectively. The wheelbase of the model is 2,885 mm. In running order, the car weighs from 2,010 to 2,107 kg (depending on the selected configuration). Ground clearance - 184 mm.

The Quix 70 interior is quite spacious, but for the sake of this, the creators sacrificed the trunk, the volume of which is only 376 liters. However, if necessary, you can always fold the back row. Unfortunately, a flat floor will not work here, but the capacity of the compartment will increase to 1,870 liters.

There is another niche under the trunk floor, but it’s not the usual stowaway, but the subwoofer of the Bose audio system. A very strange decision.

Front and rear ventilated disc brakes are installed on the wheels of the crossover. As for the suspension, here it is an independent multi-link. The line of power units Infiniti QX 70 is represented by the following engines:

  • 3.0-liter diesel V6 with a return of 238 hp and 500 Nm
  • 3.7-liter gasoline "six" with a return of 333 hp and 363 Nm
  • 5.0-liter gasoline "eight" with a return of 400 hp and 500 Nm

All engines work in conjunction with a seven-speed automatic and are complemented by an all-wheel drive system.

Price in Russia

The popular car has received a host of exclusive exterior and interior design touches, and its public debut will take place two days later at the New York Auto Show.

After the Russian buyer got acquainted with the first generation of this car, the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe unusual exterior of the car in their heads changed dramatically. The 2015 Infiniti QX70 is a great buy even today, but compared to its competitors, this SUV is already a little outdated.

For the most part, this applies only to the technical stuffing. And in terms of interior and exterior, this model will look modern and elegant for a long time. At the same time, the appearance of the QX70 has practically no differences from previous models, and the car has also retained its overall dimensions. However, the QX70's exterior is dynamic, sporty and memorable.

The Infiniti QX70 Limited is a special edition of a familiar model. The crossover received a unique front bumper, LED running lights and a revised grille that will appear on the regular QX70 in the near future.

In addition, the car is equipped with painted door handles, body-colored side vents, tinted taillights, stainless steel additional protection and exclusive 21-inch alloy wheels (265/45 tires).

Petrol 3.7 l 333 HP 363 H*m 6.8 sec. 233 km/h V6
Petrol 5.0 l 400 HP 500 H*m 5.8 sec. 250 km/h V8

Motors fell in love with buyers because of their unpretentiousness and relatively long service life. There are 4 units in total, but only 3 are available to our customers. It should be noted right away that there is enough power in the engines, it all depends on who, how fast you are going to drive.

  1. The weakest engine is a turbo diesel (diesel 30d). The 3-liter V6 produces 238 horsepower and 550 H * m of torque, allowing the car to accelerate to hundreds in 8.3 seconds. Diesel complies with Euro-4 standards, consumes 11 liters of fuel in the city and is the best in terms of reliability. The Infiniti QX70 unit received a direct injection system and at the moment a car with it can reach a maximum of 212 km / h.
  2. The second ICE is the most popular, as Russian buyers love gasoline engines and do not want to pay a lot. For such people, a naturally aspirated V6 with multipoint injection is ideal. Volume 3.7 liters, power 333 horsepower, torque 363 H * m. The dynamics will be better, more specifically, 6.8 seconds to hundreds, the maximum speed reaches 233 km / h. Consumption, of course, is high, 17 liters of AI-95 - the city and 9 liters - the highway.
  3. The top motor is most often preferred by young drivers who love speed. This is a 5-liter naturally aspirated V8 that produces as much as 400 horsepower. Such power will be available at 6500 rpm, acceleration to hundreds will take only 5.8 seconds, top speed is limited to 250 km/h. It is surprising that fuel consumption has increased by only 1 liter, but this is only in quiet mode.

There are ways to introduce chip tuning, which increases power, allowing you to drive even faster. Not everyone needs this, most often lovers of driving.

There is no choice of gearbox, it is only one - a 7-speed automatic transmission. The box performs well when switching, it works smoothly, and in sport mode it is slightly stiffer. There is also a function of manual control of the petals on the steering wheel. Suspension Infiniti QX70 is completely independent, air is additionally offered. Comfort is provided, but not the best.

Salon furnishings


The interior is made in the likeness of all the cars of the brand, which is slightly upsetting. The salon is modern, but not enough, the competitors are a little better in this regard. There is enough space, not much, but enough. High quality leather and wood materials are used. The collection is absolutely amazing.

The KU X 70 front seats are designed for comfortable movement, so they are quite soft, large, equipped with electric adjustments, heating and ventilation. During sporty driving there is not enough lateral support.


The rear sofa can easily accommodate three people, there is enough space above the head and wide, but there is a problem with the legs. Not enough legroom. Also, the rear suspension is not as soft as the front, so the rear passengers will not be as comfortable as the front. In addition to all of the above, there is also a folding armrest with two cup holders and a small box. Additionally, you can install displays of the multimedia system and a separate climate control.

The pilot of the Infiniti QX70 will get an unusual 3-spoke steering column, adjustable in height and reach. Installed volume control keys for music, switching radio stations, cruise control, telephone. Also, the steering wheel is equipped with silver shift paddles in manual transmission mode. The dashboard is equipped with analog gauges and a small on-board computer. Large sensors of the tachometer and speedometer received a chrome edging, fuel level and oil pressure sensors are located along the edges.


The center console attracts the most attention, it is equipped with a small display of the multimedia system. The display is deepened a little inside, the buttons to control all this are horizontally located. The system is also equipped with navigation. Below are the analog clock and the volume and audio control buttons. Slightly to the left is the engine start button. At the very bottom there is a niche for small things, USB ports and cigarette lighters.

The tunnel is completely made of wood, of course, there is a large gearbox selector on it. Next, we are met by washers for controlling the heating and ventilation of the front seats, between which is the selector for controlling the mode of movement on snow. The end part has a niche with coasters.


A significant drawback is the small trunk, its volume is only 376 liters. For transportation of bulky goods there is a function of folding the rear row of seats.

Excellent interior, everything you need for a comfortable move is present. Interior design is a controversial thing, decide for yourself. By the way, the cabin filter is impregnated with grape polyphenol, which removes almost all allergens entering the interior. List of equipment in the basic configuration:
