What is the Infiniti QX70?
The Infiniti QX70 is a premium crossover SUV with a low roofline and a sporty, coupe-like shape. It carries forward the design approach of the FX, Infiniti’s earlier performance crossover. The QX70 name arrived as Infiniti reorganised its model names, using the Q designation for SUVs.
The S51 generation was sold in North America from 2013 to 2017, and in Europe, the UK and France from 2013 to 2019. Its sculpted body and sloping profile continued the FX’s distinctive design in Infiniti’s SUV range.
