Infiniti Fx50 and Audi Q7: by chance together

Infiniti FX50 is 400 hp, 500 nm. The only thing that violates a number of round numbers is acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. Impressive. Believe not only on paper! For the first time, the Japanese launched a mega-sports SUV on public roads. The Germans froze
The new Infiniti FX50 has become much more muscular than the previous one and this affected not only the engine. In design and before that attractive, now more modern lines have appeared. In the profile and behind, the car looks amazing, the front wings have become more massive, the roof line is more logical, and the gills over the front arches add a feeling of strength. As for the type of INFINITI FX50 in front, the words are more likely unusual, unusual and very stylish.
The Infiniti FX50 salon is flawless in quality of fitting parts, and materials cause exceptional delight. Ergonomics at a height. I sat down for the first time, and immediately went: the hands themselves find what and how it turns on. No stops are required to search for the desired switches. The INFINITI FX50 panel shines in milky white and bluish color. As usual for Infiniti, the analog clock looks expensive and simple: is this a sign of taste? An additional camera in the right rear-view mirror certainly helps protect 21-inch wheels from insidious borders.
The designers of the Infiniti FX50 managed to find a rare and unattainable combination for many manufacturers a fairly stiff suspension (with this power it is impossible to mildly) and comfort. There are practically no interpretation of joints and holes on the road. The only thing that embarrasses is that when moving along the rough asphalt into the fx50 salon, a rather annoying noise penetrates. But, apparently, the culprits of this trouble are the standard Bridgestone tires, or a fairly low temperature (overboard was -3), in which the elasticity of summer tires left much to be desired. Yes, it is summer, despite the November frosts. When you are in the Infiniti FX50 salon, regardless of the driver’s place or GA passenger, a pleasant sense of security appears, and apparently all this is caused by quite impressive external dimensions and pleasantly cozy internal space. While in which you have a complete idea that there is a lot of metal around you, providing not only external significance, but also high passive safety.
As a result, the positive from communication with the Infiniti FX50 led to an interesting idea to compare it with AUDI, I am not afraid of this word Q7 C 4.2-liter engine and the Sport Line series. I love four rings and was sure that the Q7 would tear the opponent as alas, it did not work out. Someone will say correctly that the comparison is not entirely correct. But against the background of a much more expensive rival, FX50 won by the dynamics and not that he lost a lot in the Comfort column. The only and obvious advantage of Audi is excellent controllability and it is in comparison that I realized that it does not get the Infiniti FX50 to become Dream Kar in every sense of the word.
