2010 Infiniti EX30d

Infiniti EX30d a ‘crossover coupé’, which is pushing it a bit, but it’s certainly more rakish in profile than the SUV norm. However, that does affect practicality, with the rear seats and boot not as spacious as other SUVs. There is offers everything on the GT Premium specification.

Interior, there’s touch-screen satnav with iPod connection and a Michelin guide pre-loaded; a lane departure warning and prevention system; cornering xenon lights; heated and electrically adjusted leather front seats; self-repairing Scratch Shield paint; and rear privacy glass.

The steering is weighty but lifeless and the seven-speed automatic seems unnecessarily busy given the V6 turbodiesel’s prodigious torque output. There’s 405lb.ft on offer, giving the EX30d effortless low-rev urgency. It’s worth pushing the V6 harder too, as unlike many diesels it makes a pleasingly rousing note at the upper reach of the rev-counter needle’s sweep.

Infiniti making its North American premiere at the LA Show, it will be the new 2012 M Hybrid sedan, which is set to go on sale in the States next spring.

Infiniti IPL G Cabrio Concept make debut at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. Appropriately unveiled in one of Europe’s most romantic cities, builds on the fine looks and sporting nature of the production G Cabrio to raise the temperature in the luxury cabriolet stakes.

The ultimate G Cabrio in concept form is a bespoke and very exclusive fulfilment of Infiniti design values. Exterior with resplendent in new Malbec Black – a pearlescent black paint with red hints. Already perhaps the most handsome hard-top cabriolet whether the three-piece electric roof is up or down – an operation that takes just 25 seconds.

Perfectly poised on its new 19-inch split-rim 7-spoke graphite-finish alloy wheels, the Infiniti IPL G Cabrio Concept’s stand-out style is based around a sporting new front-end look. A new bumper section and blacked-out grille and headlight surrounds bring an aggressive new edge to the Cabrio while integrating perfectly with the rest of the design.

The interior use Monaco Red leather interior complemented by unique new cabin inlays inspired by the finessed craftsmanship of samurai armour. As well as previewing a dramatic new look and classically luxurious cabin, the world’s sexiest four-seat cabriolet with electric folding hard-top.

Unique interior, at the centre console is finished with black lacquer while the dashboard area above the glove box and doors are adorned with KACCHU, the name given to the armour used by Japan’s feudal warlords, or samurai, in the Middle Ages.

Under the bonnet of the Infiniti IPL G Cabrio Concept is Infiniti’s charismatic 3.7-litre V6 boasting 338 PS, 18 PS more than standard thanks to a high-flow dual exhaust system. It doesn’t just sound great but also reduces exhaust pressure by 30%, further enhancing engine efficiency. The point at which peak power is developed has been boosted, from 7000 to 7400 rpm – high revs which the VQ engine’s motor racing-inspired “bed plate” construction technique can take in its stride.

Maximum torque output is increased – from 360 to 374 Nm – but most important the shape of the torque curve has been refined so performance doesn’t feel in any way peaky, maintaining the linear acceleration so crucial to any Infiniti.
