The Infiniti FX50 is a sports coupe hiding in an SUV like body. With a 390HP 5.0L V8 and sporty rear wheel drive bias only powering all four wheels when circumstances dictate. Dispatching the 0-60mph time in just 5.6 seconds this is a crossover to rival the likes of the Porsche Cayenne and 2009 BMW X6 xDrive 50i. The all new 7 speed automatic transmission provides quick and seamless changes providing a constant surge of power all the way to the red line. The handling is extraordinary for such a large vehicle and it's only right at the limits of cornering that the Infiniti FX50 will start to reveal it's origins - sophisticated suspension and electronics can only disobey the laws of physics for so long! However if any crossover/SUV can satisfy the keen driver, this is it. The 2009 model now comes with some features as standard which were cost options on previous models, specifically the Navigation package is now standard, which uses a hard drive and offers 9.3GB of storage for digital music files. The Infiniti FX50 AWD also has the complete range of safety equipment - tire pressure monitoring system, ABS with electronic brake-force distribution and traction control with vehicle dynamic control. The cabin is both luxurious and sporty, with a high tech feel. If you don't need the all terrain ability or towing capacity of a large SUV, but simply need room for 5 plus luggage, the Infiniti FX50 will meet your needs and provide a satisfying and rewarding drive.
