Infiniti provides full glimpse of QX30 Concept

By / 10 years ago / News / No Comments

The concept combines elevated crossover stance with strong coupe contours, with the brand saying it gives a strong indication of its commitment to this segment.

‘We wanted the spontaneous fluidity of the QX30 Concept design to cut through the urban clutter and rigidity, reflecting its go-anywhere and spur-of-the-moment nature,’ said Alfonso Albaisa, Infiniti executive design director.

‘The QX30 Concept has been designed to make occupants feel safe and protected inside, and customers can drive in or out of the city without worrying about nicks to the chromework.’

It also features strong use of cladding, including a more pronounced aluminium-trimmed bumper up front and a tough skid plate at the rear, with Infiniti saying this is in line with its theme of “stylish protection”. The QX30 Concept also comes with 21-inch wheels and larger profile tyres.

And the roof racks are also intended to blend form with function alongside the glass roof.

‘The QX30 Concept design conveys a sophisticatedly gritty sense of strength and durability, but tough doesn’t mean rough. We’ve retained a sense of artistry throughout, even in the most functional of parts,’ said Albaisa. 

Infiniti has issued the first full picture of the QX30 Concept, which debuts next month at the Geneva Motor Show and shows the brand’s plans for a jacked-up crossover model.
