 2011 Infiniti Fx Reviews
The 2011 Infiniti Fx35, dazzle the roads with HID headlights! 18-inch aluminium wheels add to the jazzy look of The 2011 Infiniti Fx35.

The Premium Package adds a variety of attractive items to the already snazzy 2011 Infiniti Fx35. Which car, other than the inimitable 2011 Infiniti Fx35, offers all these and more? The 2011 Infiniti Fx35 is available with either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. The all-wheel-drive models of The 2011 Infiniti Fx35 use an electronically controlled system that automatically directs power to the wheels with the most traction. Electronic traction and stability control systems also come standard with The 2011 Infiniti Fx35. All-wheel-drive versions of The 2011 Infiniti Fx35 feature a snow mode for smoother takeoffs on slippery roads.

Sporty luxury crossover SUVs like the 2011 Infiniti FX37 and FX50 seem to be gaining in popularity. And with the FX, Infiniti emphasizes "sport" over utility. Notable features include a clever top-view camera, adaptive cruise control, intelligent brake assist and a lane departure warning and prevention system.

Unfortunately, the Infiniti FX has some drawbacks that its high-tech wizardry can't solve. If utility is a priority, the 2011 Infiniti FX35 and FX50 probably aren't your best choices. The 2011 Infiniti FX35 and FX50 are midsize luxury crossover SUVs available in a single, well-equipped trim level. The V6-powered FX35 can be had with either rear- or all-wheel drive, while the V8-powered FX50 is only offered with AWD.
Standard features for the FX35 include 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic xenon headlights, foglights, a sunroof, power-folding heated outside mirrors, keyless ignition/entry, a power liftgate, leather upholstery, full power accessories, eight-way power front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a manual tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel with audio controls. The FX50's Deluxe Touring is similar but adds 21-inch wheels. The Technology package (which requires the Deluxe Touring package) adds automatic wipers, adaptive cruise control, adaptive headlamps, intelligent brake assist and a lane-departure warning and prevention system.
A Sport package is available for the FX50 only, and adds dark-tinted exterior trim, active rear steering, adaptive two-mode suspension dampers, paddle shifters and sport front seats.
The 2011 Infiniti FX35 is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 that produces 303 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard for the FX35; an all-wheel-drive system with a rear bias to preserve the vehicle's sporty handling capabilities is optional. The FX50 is only offered with AWD.
The EPA estimates fuel consumption for the AWD FX35 at 16 mpg city/21 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined, while rear-drive models are rated at 16/23/19 mpg. The FX50 is estimated at 14/20/16 mpg.
Safety
Standard safety features for the 2011 Infiniti FX35 and FX50 include antilock disc brakes with brake assist, front-seat-mounted side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, traction control and stability control. Recent Edmunds brake testing yielded very favorable results for both FX versions. Stopping from 60 mph required only 114 feet for the FX35 and 117 feet for the FX50.
In terms of handling and ride quality, both the 2011 Infiniti FX35 and FX50 deliver similar experiences.

The 2011 Infiniti FX is a great choice is you want a sporty, stylish and high-tech crossover SUV. But, if you’re looking for family-SUV practicality, look elsewhere.
Three things set the 2011 Infiniti FX apart from the luxury midsize SUV pack: its high-tech safety features, sporty performance and fashion-forward styling. The FX has coupe-like styling. It looks great but cuts into passenger and cargo space.
