About Infiniti FX50
The newly redesigned 2009 Infiniti FX was first shown to the public for the first time on March 4, 2008, at the Geneva Motor Show, and it went on sale in June of the same year. The model with the V8 engine, previously known as the FX35, was renamed the FX50 to reflect the 5-liter capacity of its newly developed VK50VE engine. The V6 model continued to be referred to as the FX35.
In spite of incorporating new design cues, the exterior managed to keep some elements of the “Bionic Cheetah” look and the “giant scarab” profile that were present on the first generation. A large trapezoidal grille filled with horizontal dark-chrome waves, functional side air vents, and longer headlights sculpted to resemble sharks were some of the new design’s distinguishing characteristics. The new model maintained the same overall proportions as its predecessor in terms of its size and dimensions, both on the outside and on the inside.
The front suspension was a new double-wishbone design, comparable to that found on the G37 and EX35; this design ultimately replaced the front strut-type suspension found on the previous generation of the FX. The upper and lower A-arms of the suspension were designed to improve control of the motion of a wheel. This is especially true when the suspension compresses and extends, as this design provides more travel than the previous strut design. In addition to this, the body was developed to be 1.6 times more torsionally rigid and 3.4 times more resistant to bending in comparison to the earlier model. All Wheel Drive (AWD) was a standard feature, and it is noteworthy that Infiniti’s AWD system always engages a power split of 50:50 when the vehicle is stationary. This ensures that the vehicle has the maximum amount of off-the-line traction possible at all times. When necessary, up to one hundred percent of the power produced by the engine can be transferred to the rear wheels, while the front wheels can receive no more than fifty percent of the available power.
