Exterior crossover QX70


The appearance of the car is its main "feature", it is unique, does not look like competitors, and that is why there are buyers. Everyone wants to be individual. The oval muscular shape of the muzzle is reduced to the unusual xenon headlights. The rectangular chrome grille with horizontal bars looks stylish too. The bumper of the car stands out only with a chrome trim on the round fog lamps.

The side part hints at the off-road capabilities of the car with plastic protection for the wheel arches and sills. Also on the side, there is abundant use of chrome, door handles, glass edging, lower insert and edging of the gills that remove hot air. The wheel arches of the Infiniti QX70 are swollen enough to maintain a muscular shape. The roof is equipped with rails, you can use them for their intended purpose, unlike some competitors.


The crossover stern looks as unique as the front. Narrow headlights, chrome inserts around the license plate, all this makes the car stand out from the back. The huge electric boot lid is equipped with a wing at the top, which in turn has an additional brake light. The rather big bumper of the car received muscular forms, plastic protection, reflectors and exhaust pipes.

  • length - 4865 mm;
  • width - 1925 mm;
  • height - 1650 mm;
  • wheelbase - 2885 mm;

Technical characteristics of KU IKS 70 2018

Type of Volume Power Torque Overclocking Maximum speed Number of cylinders
Diesel 3.0 l 238 h.p. 550 H * m 8.3 sec. 212 km / h V6
Petrol 3.7 l 333 h.p. 363 H * m 6.8 sec. 233 km / h V6
Petrol 5.0 l 400 h.p. 500 H * m 5.8 sec. 250 km / h V8

Motors fell in love with buyers because of their unpretentiousness and relatively long service life. There are 4 units in total, but only 3 are available to our customers. It should be noted right away that there is enough power in the engines, it all depends on who, how fast you are going to drive.

  1. The weakest engine is a turbo diesel (diesel 30d). The 3.0-liter V6 produces 238 horsepower and 550 H * m of torque, allowing the car to accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 8.3 seconds. Diesel complies with Euro-4 standards, consumes 11 liters of fuel in the city and is the best in terms of reliability. The Infiniti QX70 unit received a direct injection system and at the moment a car with it can gain a maximum of 212 km / h.
  2. The second ICE is the most popular, as Russian buyers love gasoline engines and do not want to pay much. For such people, a naturally aspirated V6 with multi-point injection is ideal. Volume 3.7 liters, power 333 horsepower, torque 363 H * m. The dynamics will be better, more specifically, 6.8 seconds to hundreds, the maximum speed reaches 233 km / h. Consumption, of course, is high, 17 liters of AI-95 - city and 9 liters - highway.
  3. The top motor is most often preferred by young drivers who love speed. This is a naturally aspirated V8 with a volume of 5 liters and 400 horsepower. Such power will be available at 6500 rpm, acceleration to a hundred will take only 5.8 seconds, the maximum speed is limited to 250 km / h. It is surprising that fuel consumption has increased by only 1 liter, but this is only in quiet mode.

There are ways to implement chip tuning that increases power, allowing you to drive even faster. This is not necessary for everyone, most often for amateurs to drive.

There is no choice of gearbox, there is only one - a 7-speed automatic transmission. The box shows itself perfectly when shifting, it works smoothly, and in sport mode it is slightly stiffer. There is also a manual control of the steering wheel paddles. The Infiniti QX70's suspension is completely independent, with an optional pneuma. Comfort is provided, but not the best.

The crossover is controlled perfectly, the turns are passed with practically no rolls. The rear thruster is installed, which really helps with sporty driving. Responsible for braking are ventilated disc brakes equipped with an aluminum caliper and a 4-channel ABS system.

Interior furnishings


The interior is made in the likeness of all cars of the brand, which is slightly upsetting. The salon is modern, but not enough, the competitors are slightly better in this regard. There is enough space, not much, but quite enough. High-quality upholstery materials in the form of leather and wood are used. The build is definitely great.

The front seats KU IKS 70 are designed for comfortable movement, therefore they are quite soft, large, equipped with electric adjustments, heating and ventilation. There is not enough lateral support during sporty driving.


The back sofa comfortably accommodates three people, there is enough space above the head and in width, but the problem with the legs. Legroom is not enough. Also, the rear suspension is not as soft as the front, so the rear passengers will not be as comfortable as the front ones. In addition to all of the above, there is also a folding armrest with two cup holders and a small box. Additionally, you can install multimedia system displays and separate climate control.

The Infiniti QX70 pilot will get an unusual 3-spoke steering column, adjustable in height and reach. Installed volume control keys for music, switching radio stations, cruise control, telephone. Also, the steering wheel is equipped with silver gearshift paddles in manual gearbox mode. The dashboard is equipped with analog gauges and a small on-board computer. Large tachometer and speedometer gauges have chrome trim, fuel level and oil pressure gauges are located along the edges.


The center console is the most eye-catching, it is equipped with a small display of the multimedia system. The display is deepened slightly inward, the buttons for controlling all this are located horizontally. The system is also equipped with navigation. Below are the analogue clock and buttons for controlling the volume and audio recordings. Slightly to the left is the engine start button. At the very bottom there is a niche for small items, USB ports and cigarette lighters.

The tunnel is entirely made of wood, and of course houses a large gear selector. Next, we are greeted by washers for controlling the heating and ventilation of the front seats, between there is a selector for controlling the mode of movement in the snow. The end part has a niche with cup holders.


A significant drawback is the small trunk, its volume is only 376 liters. For the transportation of bulky goods, there is a function of folding the rear row of seats.

Excellent interior, everything you need for comfortable movement is present. Interior design is a controversial thing, decide for yourself. By the way, the cabin filter is impregnated with grape polyphenol, which removes almost all allergens entering the interior. Basic equipment list:

  • Separate climate control;
  • keyless access;
  • Cruise control;
  • Rear View Camera;
  • 20th discs;
  • Electrically adjustable seats;
  • Heated and ventilated seats;
  • Xenon optics;
  • A roof with a panoramic view;
  • Multimedia system.

Video review QX70 2018

The second generation Infiniti QX70 crossover has been produced since 2008, while the model was originally known under the FX index and received its current name only at the end of 2013.

In 2014, the SUV underwent restyling, during which Infiniti specialists refreshed the model's appearance and improved its technical equipment. The update was good for the car, so even today the Ku X 70 remains one of the best-selling crossovers in its class.

Exterior




The muscular body of the 2018-2019 Infiniti QX70 has smooth, but at the same time aggressive curves, so it immediately becomes clear that we have a car with a sporty character.

In front, the formidable squint of slanted bi-xenon headlights, a huge chrome grille and a raised hood are striking. The wheels are decorated with massive alloy wheels. In the basic configuration, they are 20-inch, and in the top-end (Sport and Hi-Tech) - with a diameter of 21 inches.



The car received massive body struts and small windows, which made its design even more lean, but because of this, visibility suffered somewhat. On the crossover, the sloping roof and the sidewalls tapering to the stern - this decision made it possible to give the appearance of lightness, while negatively affecting the practicality of the cabin.

In general, the appearance of the Infiniti Ku X 70 is no longer as impressive as in the first years of the model's production, but the language does not turn out to be called the design of the “seventy”. On the road, such a car is still eye-catching, emphasizing the status of the owner, and this, you see, is worth a lot.

Salon

In the cabin, the age of the model is still felt, and some elements here no longer create the premium effect as in the first years of the appearance of the crossover on the market.

Take the dashboard. It looks bright and easy to read, but the monochrome display located in the middle immediately reminds that the Infiniti QX 70 II generation has been produced for almost 10 years. However, there are not many really outdated design elements in the cabin, and they are hardly noticeable.

For interior decoration the Japanese used only high quality materials - leather and soft plastic. The latter can be found here not only on the front panel, but even in the lower part of the cabin (for example, on the central tunnel), which not all competitors can boast of.

The steering wheel and driver's seat in the Ku X 70 pleases with a wide range of adjustments, so that a person of any configuration can comfortably accommodate here. The seat itself is very comfortable and does not hinder movement a bit, while keeping the rider tightly even on steep turns.

All the most important controls are at your fingertips. Their location is intuitive and easy to remember. You will only have to get used to a multimedia system with a modest screen and not the brightest graphics.

The fact is that the Japanese offer to control the functions of the entertainment complex from a washer, unsuccessfully located at the very top of the center console. The screen itself is touch-sensitive, but the driver will still have to reach either for it or for the aforementioned washer, which is not very convenient to do while driving.

In addition, there is a clear lack of storage space in the car. The salon has only a few small niches and drawers for small things.

Specifications

The overall dimensions of the Infiniti QX70 are 4,865, 1,925 and 1,650 mm in length, width and height, respectively. The wheelbase of the model is 2,885 mm. When loaded, the vehicle weighs from 2,010 to 2,107 kg (depending on the selected configuration). The ground clearance is 184 mm.

The interior of the KuX 70 is quite spacious, but for the sake of this, the creators donated the trunk, the volume of which is only 376 liters. However, if necessary, you can always fold the back row. Unfortunately, a flat floor will not work here, but the capacity of the compartment will increase to 1,870 liters.

There is another niche under the boot floor, only there is not the usual stowaway, but the subwoofer of the Bose audio system. A very strange decision.

Ventilated disc brakes are installed on the front and rear wheels of the crossover. As for the suspension, here it is an independent multi-link. The Infiniti QX 70 powertrain lineup is represented by the following motors:

  • 3.0-liter V6 diesel with 238 hp. and 500 Nm
  • 3.7-liter gasoline "six" with a return of 333 hp and 363 Nm
  • 5.0-liter gasoline "eight" with a return of 400 hp and 500 Nm

All engines work in conjunction with a seven-speed automatic and are complemented by an all-wheel drive system.

Price in Russia

The next generation of the Japanese crossover Infiniti QX70 2017, which should hit the market by next year, has already been shown in New York and Beijing. Based on the results of these shows and the information received from them, conclusions can be drawn about the parameters and capabilities of the new car. The main features should be improved driving performance, cross-country ability and ride comfort. And, according to representatives of the manufacturing company, there will be a generation with many advantages over the previous models FX37 and FX50.

Exterior design

Expected in domestic salons in about six months, the new Infiniti QX received a shape similar to its predecessor. However, there are actually quite a few updates:

  • changed radiator grill;
  • new shape of the hood, wheel arches and headlights;
  • stretched body and sloping roof;
  • fenders the color of which matches the main paint of the vehicle.

In addition to the exterior upgrades, the QX's reliability has also been improved. Manufactured from metal alloys that are stronger than the previous generation, the impact of road accidents is reduced. Although other features of the car, including modern security systems, will help the driver not to get into an accident.


Crossover salon

The interior of the new Infiniti QX70 2017 has become more comfortable and spacious. Here you can also find a lot of electronic devices to simplify driving and a unique finish using leather and wood inserts. A serious advantage of the new car is its multifunctional steering wheel, the testing of which showed a good response to the driver's actions.

Among the filling of the new Infiniti QX70 2018 it is worth highlighting:

  • heating and massage systems built into the front seats;
  • ionizers;
  • modern on-board computer designed to play multimedia files;
  • the latest navigation system;
  • effective climate control.


In addition, the driver can view the rear view using mirrors or a video camera. To increase safety, the car is equipped with a collision avoidance system, automatic parking (including sensors and software for finding a free parking space). And also - equipment for dynamic stabilization, which allows you to prevent a car hitting a pedestrian. In addition, the QX70 has several conveniently located airbags and an anti-theft system.

Model technical parameters

The manufacturer expects to equip the new Infiniti QX70 with three types of power units:

  • three-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 238 liters. with. (550 Nm, 212 km / h, acceleration to 100 km - 8.3 seconds, diesel fuel consumption - up to 11.2 l / 100 km);
  • a gasoline unit with a volume of 3.7 liters (333 liters. from.). The engine's fuel consumption reaches 17.1 liters, depending on the travel mode, and the acceleration time does not exceed 6.8 s;
  • 400-horsepower engine with a volume of 5 liters with a gasoline consumption of no more than 18.8 liters in city mode and acceleration to a hundred in just 5.7 seconds.


All powertrains received by the new generation Infiniti QX70 2018 are specially refined to reduce fuel consumption at the same performance. Each configuration, regardless of the installed engine, received four-wheel drive and a seven-speed automatic transmission. At the same time, the most powerful engine allows the crossover to accelerate to 250 km / h - a result that is more consistent not with an off-road, but with a sports car.

Overall dimensions of the car

Despite its serious dimensions - 4.865 m long, 1.925 m wide and 1.65 m high - the Infiniti QX70 2017 is designed to accommodate only 5 people. The wheelbase of the crossover is 2,885 m, which leaves enough knee room even for back row passengers. And the ground clearance of 184 mm is large enough to overcome most of the obstacles encountered in the city. For out-of-town trips, the car is less suitable - after all, it is a "SUV", and not a real SUV.

The size of the luggage compartment is highly dependent on the seating position. With fully unfolded rear row seats, the trunk can hold up to 700 liters, with the backs folded down - up to 1,756 cubic meters. This is noticeably more compared to the previous version of the QX70, which held less than 400 liters of luggage.


Options and prices

The exact date when the new crossover enters the domestic market is still unknown. However, potential buyers can already familiarize themselves with the prices reported by the manufacturer.

The cost of the basic versions of the new generation Infiniti QX70 2017, which received the electric drive of the two front seats with memory of the body position, will start at 2.7 million rubles, the maximum configurations will cost twice as much. The NAVI packages will delight their owners with improved safety systems, Hi-Tech - with "smart lighting", and Sport - with an improved steering wheel and new sports brakes. And the last one in terms of the level of equipment of the car (the price of which is in the range of 6.15–6.3 million rubles, depending on the chosen engine), has also received an exclusive design.

Advantages and disadvantages of the model

Despite the fact that the machine has not yet entered the market, testing has already been carried out. Moreover, some of its features have not changed since the last generation. Therefore, among the advantages of the QX70 are:
Advantages and disadvantages of the model

  • good dynamics and speed, especially for a crossover;
  • stylish design;
  • high build quality and expensive interior trim;
  • equipped with the most modern technologies that simplify driving.


The novelty was not without its drawbacks. First of all, it is a high sensitivity to road irregularities - which once again confirms that the car belongs to the SUV segment. It can be attributed to the disadvantages and not very effective sound insulation, and high fuel consumption. And the disadvantage of top-end equipment is the high price and rather expensive maintenance.

Drawing conclusions about the need to buy such a car, it is worth noting that cars from the same class and price category, which are competitors of the Infiniti QX70 2018, are inferior to it in most characteristics. So, the BMW X6 is distinguished by more modest external data, a simple interior and a luggage compartment smaller by 130 liters. And the Acura ZDX, whose price is noticeably higher, may not be available to most buyers - although in terms of equipment it roughly corresponds to the QX model.
