Infiniti JX 35

When Infiniti introduced the JX35 Crossover earlier this year, it had the Audi Q7 as well as family men, and moms, in mind. Whether (or not) you get a kick out of the design or the drive, it stuns with sophistication and a surprising price

The Design

Whether the Infiniti JX35 makes waves with its involved design, “the wave makes designs” in this car. From the hood lines to the signature double-arch grille and the crescent shaped D pillar, looks like the design team took their job too seriously in trying to cast an impression. No issues, there. Just that simplicity and size do exhibit a directly proportionally relationship in matters of design appeal.In the new Infiniti JX35, Nissan and Infiniti have yet again made sure that the CVT is a useable transmission technology – even enjoyable in a certain way. Except in the Eco mode, where the resistance builds a wall between you and the accelerator pedal and the CVT drone is made self-evident without making much progress. So, after saving a bit of fuel to make up for the rest of the drive, I quickly shifted to, and stayed on, Standard or Sports mode, with which the 3.5 L engine could be pleasurably coaxed to deliver enough power to make its presence felt on the road. And, it sounds just as good as a V6 should.

Family Drive

The JX is for the family – for what other reason could anyone buy over two tons of bulk and dubious design? As for families, reasons abound to go for Infiniti’s new crossover. Right from the class-leading legroom in both the back rows to the ingenious practicality of folding the second row – without having to remove the baby seat! Plenty of headroom and a wide-open feeling make sure that seven isn’t a crowd in the JX.However, none of the SUVs in the class seem to have knee support in mind for the rear passengers: which is a pity with the JX, because it can afford the space. Another thing I don’t get is the way the foldable centre backrest (or armrest support) juts out in the second row – making it challenging for anyone to just lean back and enjoy the view ahead!
