One of the first models that we could expect to see offered in South African from Infiniti will be the FX SUV. The video illustrates the FX30dS, an SUV equipped with a 3,0-litre V6 turbodiesel engine. It develops 175 kW and 550 N.m. According to Infiniti, this FX uses only 9,0 L/100 km (240 g/km CO2) with a sprint time to 100 km/h of 8,3 seconds.
Abroad, this engine is also available in the compact Infiniti EX SUV. Later in the year, Infiniti will release details about the exact local engine line-up. Click here for the full news story on the local launch of the Infiniti brand.
