The roofline draws the eye along a pronounced upper arch toward a crisp rear spoiler. With wheels positioned far to the corners of the vehicle and a wide track enabled by muscular fender shapingQX65 projects confidence and stability.
“QX65 builds on the nearly four-decade history of INFINITI creativity and shakes up the midsize SUV segment with a passionatesporty fastback that injects fresh energy into luxury vehicle design,” said Alfonso Albaisasenior vice president for Global Design. “With its arched rooflinedazzling gold-flecked paint and powerfully refined interiorthe all-new QX65 entices and rewards drivers who seek to make every day remarkable.”
QX65’s eye-catching design is highlighted by new Sunfire Red paint that features genuine gold-coated glass flecks. This vibrant red paint finish requires three layers of coating to achieve its one-of-a-kind appearance. Shimmering in the light with pops of goldSunfire Red communicates the dynamicthrilling experience promised by QX65. The color is inspired by a similarlimited-edition Regal Red seen on the iconic Nissan GT-R – another link to the heritage of innovation and performance that underpins the INFINITI brand.
