Yesterday brand Infiniti conducted for metropolitan journalists predpremerny showing the second-generation SUV QX56. Prettier externally and internally Infiniti flagship model range will be shown to the public only in late August as part of the Moscow International Automobile Salon-2010. One of the first meet in statics with Japanese novelty happened and RBC daily.
Cars that brands are among the Russian special recognition. Appeared originally in the American market and developed primarily for the Americans, these cars were officially delivered to the Russian market only since late 2006. Just ignore the interest of Russians to their overseas products (supplies "gray» Infiniti in Russia were visible to the naked eye, with special recognition enjoyed model FX) in Nissan Motor are no longer able.
And in this time of sale presented in April at the International Auto Show in New York Infiniti QX56 2011 model year started first in the U.S. market (from July) and later (in August) the car became available for orders and customers from the Middle East. However, the tedious wait was worth it.
The car received a completely new look. Now it looks like not only monumental but also sports, mainly due to turned tender. A new, more narrow - perhaps too narrow - the front optics, a new grille, wave-like (in the spirit of the latest creations of engineers Infiniti) bends the engine compartment lid and 22-inch wheels give the illusion of a good tempo, which is capable of this car. Note that the monumentality of the second generation of this SUV also is not lost - its length increased by 3.5 cm, width - to 2,8 cm, but the height decreased by 9.6 cm in favor of the same sport and a lower center of gravity.
It is noteworthy that in rethinking the cabin of the new QX while - complete calm. The restrained luxury of Torpedo combined with solid seating for all three rows. Second row, representing two separate captain's chairs can be automatically folded by pressing both the driver's seat and a luggage compartment. Yet this quiet giant can only dream of. Beginning with the second-generation platform QX has undergone dramatic changes. The new, extremely rigid supporting structure allowed both to increase comfort and reduce noise, vibration and shock. The updated petrol V8 with a working volume of 5.6 liters provides acceleration to 100 km / h in 6,5 with through a system of variable valve timing and degree of opening of valves VVEL. This engine was more economical thanks to direct injection DIG and the new 7-speed automatic transmission, already familiar to the Russians for an updated model range of Infiniti. With 405-horsepower engine under the hood, providing a torque of 560 Nm (previously - 325 hp and 533 Nm), the new QX able to tow a boat or trailer weighing up to 3850 kg. And the fuel consumption the Japanese managed to reduce by 10% compared to its predecessor.
One of the major innovations in the new QX - first introduced on cars of this brand system Hydraulic Body Motion Control. It is a hydraulic system limits the oscillations of the body, help reduce body roll during cornering, which improves the comfort of motion (this system will test RBC daily in one of the next test drives).
The car will be available to clients immediately after the Moscow premiere. Nissan Motor will offer the Russians the only complete set of the new SUV on the principle of "all inclusive". All options need not enumerate - list included in the "base" option is not one page of text. In addition, more detailed acquaintance with the car yet to RBC daily. We note only that for the entire set of Japanese engineering in one big bottle will put 3.6 million rubles. That is quite reasonable, considering several factors: the biggest in the class size cars, technical equipment (engine capacity of 5.6 liters, spending By the way, 20 l per 100 km in real urban conditions) and all available in the only complete set of functionality.
