In the Russian market, the sales of one of the largest SUVs of the world Infiniti QX are gaining momentum. These cars were imported to the country before thanks to gray dealers. But official cars were specially adapted to our conditions and have a factory guarantee, which is an undoubted plus
Russia is large. Maybe that's why we are suitable for everything on a grand scale. Cars are no exception. Our story is dedicated to the huge brutal SUV Infiniti QX. The dimensions of the mastodon are really unique. The length exceeds 5 meters, a width of 2 meters. The height practically coincides with the width. The car appeared on our roads long before official sales. During this time, gray dealers managed to make good money. Popular cars diverged like hot pies. And this is given that prices were very high, and it was not about the guarantee at all.
Infiniti QX is a seven-seater premium SUV. Yes, it is premium! If the exterior, in addition to gigantic sizes, will not stand out anything special, then the interior resembles the cabinet of a senior boss. What is not there! The decoration contains leather and wooden inserts, as well as high -quality plastic. At the same time, everything is done with extreme accuracy. You quickly get used to the good, however, the huge internal dimensions at first scare. Still, the salon is designed for seven. At the same time, each chair has adjustments, and the driver and passengers can enjoy the advantages of individual climate control. The bright decoration of the internal space looks gorgeous. If someone considers it impractical, it can order dark materials as an option.
It is worth emphasizing that for the owners of Infiniti, a special program of privileged service has been developed. When buying a car of this brand, you get a whole range of services. We are talking about maintenance at any time convenient for the owner, despite the existing line. At the same time, the client will have a personal manager who quickly satisfies any wishes.
Of course, this approach is able to attract a lot of customers, but it is important how good Infiniti QX as a city car and an SUV is good. If you sharply put an accelerator on the pedal, the three -ton car is quite quickly breaking away. By this, she owes a powerful 5.6-liter motor, which produces 325 liters. With. Saves a large moment of 533 Nm.
Managing Infiniti QX56 is easy to do not devoid of feedback. But it must be borne in mind that the car has a giant mass. When the turning of the Infiniti QX56 passes on the front wheel so that there is a probability of a tire break. You can, of course, use low -profile rubber, but then Infiniti ceases to be an SUV.
We will warn that it is better not to climb into serious dirt on Infiniti QX, but you can drive along a cracked spring road without problems. The drive has four modes that are selected using the regulator: rear, automatic, full and full with connected by a nearby box. A five -speed machine copes perfectly with the moment transmitted to it. In addition, he quickly adapts to a particular driving style. The brakes are ready to quickly besiege Infiniti QX with high speed. However, do not forget about the inertial forces. Overheating the brakes is simple. Infiniti QX can easily fall in love with its breadth of sincere. But for the premium you will have to pay a considerable price. In our country, they have long been accustomed to this.
