Infiniti M35h warns pedestrians - Live Los Angeles 2010
Infiniti will bring the available spring 2011 M35h equipped with a pedestrian warning system on the market. It consists of a computer-controlled synthesizer board in the front bumper and a built-in speaker. The VSP (Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians) said system is activated when you start off in electric mode and automatically switches off at speeds above 30 km / h from again. Slows the M35h its journey, it switches the VSP automatically at 25 km / h again.
To search for the most effective yet unobtrusive sound of an extensive research program was conducted. Were taken into account the various aspects, including behavior of pedestrians and noise. Infiniti at the end was a sound pattern with variable pitch and volume in preference to a single tone. The result is a sine wave with a frequency of 2.5 kHz and 600 Hz, these frequencies are for people of all ages and groups are heard and felt to be disturbing at the same time outside the area (around 1000 Hz).
The change between high and low tone frequency is dependent on vehicle speed and whether the Infiniti M35h just accelerates or decelerates. The largest sound volume when the bike is used, while the system produces an intermittent sound when reversing. Both sounds are specifically selected to be alert visually impaired pedestrians and passers-by on the M35h.
Although the M35h can drive alone with his zero-emission electric drive quickly up to 80 km / h, is at speeds above 30 km / h, the noise levels loud enough to be able to dispense with the VSP. In developing the hybrid model, Toyota found that the M35h in mixed driving, about half the time only can drive with electric drive.
Infiniti is different from other manufacturers, not least the fact that it gives all its models an extremely rich standard equipment for the journey. So it is only logical that the European sales start in spring 2011 (by Country) M35h each comes standard with VSP. The pedestrian warning system complements the M35h a comprehensive package of innovative security systems, including the premium in all versions as standard built-in Dynamic Safety Shield package.
The M35h combines a 225 kW / 306 hp 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine and a 50 kW / 68 hp electric motor payable to accelerate the Ininiti in under 5.9 seconds from zero to 100 mph. The model will operate in spite of its sporty performance, more often, longer and faster than conventional hybrid vehicles with electric drive alone. As a provisional standard average consumption is 7.3 liters per Infiniti of 100 kilometers.

NB: The decision to launch the IPL range of Infiniti in Europe will be made based on the reception of the concept at the show!

Infiniti QX56 2011, against all odds / full detail specs price pictures
In recent years, sales of full-size SUVs have largely declined, even in the segment of large luxury SUVs. The Infiniti QX56 is also among the victims, especially when one notes that only about 160 units were sold in Canada last year. Is there still a hope to generate a profitable level of sales for manufacturers? Infiniti took the bet yes and introduced in 2011 the second generation of its luxury SUVs.
This is somewhat surprising. One would have expected to abandon the model much more than a revival since the context is not likely to change for this type of vehicle. However, there is no denying that it remains a market for large luxury SUVs, especially the United States and with a number of players falling steadily, the market shares can still get interesting. That's what Infiniti intends to do. But leaders of the luxury brand of Nissan are not duped, they know very well that the QX remain a niche vehicle and the volume of sale will not extraordinary.
Based on this observation, Infiniti wants to restore the prestige of its QX relying mainly on two factors, the comfort and style. Forget the old speeches that were to present these luxury SUVs as real animals off-road. This time, we want to stomach the idea of a vehicle designed for families (we will add easy), enjoying the comfort and space. In short, the QX56 is intended as a long-haul truck capable of towing up to 8500 lbs.
The choice of model is quite simple. The 2011 QX56 is available in two versions, the QX56 4WD QX56 7 Passenger 4WD and 8 passengers. Our neighbors to the south they are also able to control the QX56 in two wheel drive version. Under the hood, a single engine or a 5.6-liter V8, the same team that the new V8 M56 sedan. However, this engine has been modified to accommodate an SUV, which explains its lower power, 400 horsepower instead of 420 in the case of M. However, power and excellent torque of 413 lb-ft more linear, which helps the vehicle's performance, particularly when towing. Much more modern than the old 5.6-liter V8, this engine provides better fuel economy thanks in particular to variable valve timing and direct injection. This engine is married to a seven-speed automatic transmission, the only proposed.
Fully redesigned this year, the QX56 enjoys a whole new platform and does not share anything with the Nissan Armada. Infiniti is now using the platform of the Nissan Patrol, which explains the new dimensions of the QX56 2011. The vehicle is lower (73 mm), wider than 28 mm while its length increased by 35mm. In terms of style, difficult to confuse this new generation with the old. It must be admitted that the builder did a good job at that level while the QX inherits a style much more fluid and dynamic. It recognizes some rear styling cues borrowed from the Cube, but the inspiration comes from the overall concept vehicle gasoline. The front of the grid inherits double arches, while the hood, similar to the FX and the new M, includes a wave pattern with fenders. The vents functional, integrated into the wings, also add a nice touch. The style element that is most revealing and poise that puts the vehicle in front is undoubtedly the 20-inch wheels (or 22 inch optional).
The interior incorporates the concept of a private jet with ample space and comfort for seven or eight passengers, depending on your configuration. In this chapter, you can opt for the second row captain's chairs, including a large center console or bench that can accommodate an extra passenger, but in return he will be deprived of the console. The passenger front and second row enjoy plenty of space and clearance, while the third row passengers will be a little more cramped. The highest seat space to amputate the head. However, even with passengers in the rear, there is a reasonable cargo space.
Difficult to criticize anything in terms of quality and attention to detail. The dashboard is clean and the various controls are simple to understand and use. The interior exudes luxury and this chapter, Infiniti has always known how to do. Audiophiles will also be filled by the system, Bose 13-speaker.
On the road
The 5.6-liter engine provides good acceleration and enjoys a rich sound. The 400 horsepower is enough to move vigorously QX56, but with a weight of about 2500 kg, this power is not too much. In driving dynamics, he appreciates the work of the seven-speed box, so that management is relatively accurate. It notes cons of weight transfer sizeable common for this type of vehicle, but may be reduced if the buyer opts for a model equipped with the technology package, the latter receiving a hydraulic motion compensation. This system, located between the chassis and suspension system uses a transfer fluid that compensates for excessive roll or pitch.
Infiniti boasts towing capability of its QX65 and presents it as a tow vehicle luxury. True with a towing capacity of 8500 lbs, it's even one of the highest for this type of vehicle. The buyer will fall back to a van to get better. Good point also for the trailer hitch that can be hidden entirely last panel, which does not affect the style of the QX56. However, all is not perfect. Shape up while the side mirrors do not favor the tow (we expect to have larger mirrors or stretched) then it will take you back on the props to equip the vehicle with a brake control power.
Noting that the 2011 QX56 is not for everyone and some people do need a spacious vehicle and capable, it must be admitted that Infiniti QX offers a well that meets this requirement. Fans of the genre have little to do with recriminations.via
