    Geneva Motor Show Tease: Infiniti QX30

      Infiniti Previews A Compact Luxury Crossover for Geneva


    Infiniti is readying to join the mess that is the compact premium crossover segment.

    Next month at the Geneva Motor Show, the Japanese luxury automaker will reveal the QX30 concept. In a press release, Infiniti says the QX30 is for those who seeking an "urban week and get-away weekend" lifestyle.

    Judging from the teaser show released by Infiniti, the QX30 concept looks be a high-riding version of the Q30 concept shown at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We can make out a set of trapezoidal tailpipes, small liftgate, and slim taillights.

    Now its been reported that the Q30 and QX30 will use Mercedes-Benz's MFA architecture - the one that underpins the Mercedes-Benz CLA and GLA-Class models.

    We'll have more information and pictures when the QX30 debuts next month.

    Infiniti gears up for premiere of QX30 Concept in Geneva

    Hong Kong – Infiniti will take the covers off the QX30 Concept at the Geneva International Motor Show next month.

    The QX30 Concept is the Infiniti design vision that will inspire a new premium compact crossover targeted at a new generation of premium customers.

    Set to be revealed at Infiniti's press conference scheduled for 12:30 p.m. local time on March 3 in Geneva, the QX30 Concept aims to reignite the premium compact segment with a distinctive approach to design that looks beyond the practicality and conformity expected of the segment.

    The potential customers for such a concept are searching for a product to suit their "urban week and get-away weekend" lifestyle, and the QX30's compact footprint matches that. Combining the sleek lines of a coupe with the rugged looks and commanding seating position of a crossover, the QX30 Concept foreshadows an urban explorer which is equally at home in the city as it is on the open road.

    This should be interesting, Buick has killed it with the Encore AWD CUV for those Urban Luxury Get away weekends.  These are the people who want to go to a nice resort be it on the beach or in the mountains and have an active life style. Maybe Ski, kayak, fish, surf, etc.

     

    So my understanding on the marketing is people who will drive an 1-3 hrs to go some place to do activities for the weekend.

     

    Interesting picture, does look like the 2013 concept a bit, be interesting to see the nose and how much they changed it.

    • Because why would you want to take a multi port fuel injected car and turn it into a carbed car?  Also, it's a ton of work (if you even can make the thing fit under the hood) for not a lot of gain, and you're still having to run it through the 4-speed 4T80-E.  There are other Northstar mods out there that will get better bang for the buck.

    • Welcome to the iCar as Jony Ives was the designer and lead during production. He could not get his iCar produced at Apple and so he got Ferrari to do it in an overpriced way. Ugly as heck, but hopefully the experience of actually driving it is better than the look. @surreal1272 @ccap41 Ferrari should have released the auto as a Concept to get feedback from the public as this iCar is a styling failure. They could have take the Jaguar XJ220 and put in an electric powertrain and been far more successful than this iCar release they did without all the negativity it has generated. Does Ferrari need to go electric? YES Is this the right auto for them? NO Is the software and driving dynamic worthy of a Ferrari? Unknown
    • ITA does not have a 747.  This is just a mock up if they did.  That's a good looking bird.  Alitalia had eight 747s and pulled them shortly after 9/11 because of the drop in air traffic and to cut costs. ITA uses the newer A350 and the updated A330-900neo for long haul flights. I have only flown on them domestically and was real excited to learn that they have added a seasonal Rome to Houston nonstop.  This is all because they have joined Star Alliance as a function of being picked up by Lufthansa.
