INFINITI Features Glossary For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
It’s all too easy to hop into your vehicle every day and never give its technology a second thought. From windshield wipers to power seats, there’s plenty of amazing science behind the convenience and comfort you experience while you’re driving your car. Sometimes, though, it’s interesting to learn how these innovations actually work.

Take, for instance, the heated mirrors on the 2019 INFINITI QX50. They make it easy to see no matter the
weather, since snow and ice will melt right off. For this reason, they are a fabulous feature for both safety and convenience.


Heated mirrors work in a similar way to your vehicle’s rear defrost. In fact, in many cases, the two systems are connected. Electrical elements run through the glass and, when turned on, produce heat. This in turn evaporates or melts any precipitation that might have built up. Wires in the door panels provide the power for this process.

If you’re in the Newcastle, Washington, area, stop in and check out the 2019 QX50. In addition to its mirrors, it boasts heated seats with memory and occupant-sensing airbags for further safety. At INFINITI of Tacoma, we can’t wait to get you set up with a test drive!

Have you been looking at the 2019 INFINITI QX50? If so, you might have noticed its extensive features list. It’s our goal to make each and every amenity that comes with this crossover comprehensible to buyers.

Take, for instance, the vehicle’s power liftgate. This is a term that gets tossed around with automobiles from time to time, but 
are you familiar with exactly what it means, or how this technology works?

Relying on hydraulics, a liftgate system makes it a snap to open and close the trunk or hatch of your vehicle. You can operate this technology with a button inside the car or with a simple touch of a foot outside. This makes it extremely easy to load groceries or take heavy equipment out of the QX50. It’s a hands-free option that you’re sure to love. Once the sensor is activated, the door will open. How simple is that?



This INFINITI is filled with other amazing features, too. Delay-off headlights light your path when you’re coming home late at night. An emergency communication system protects you in case you ever are stranded without a phone during a scary situation.

2019 infiniti qx50 for sale tacoma seattle washingtonPopular Mechanics just published a piece on the INFINITI variable compression engine and what it means for your vehicle. You’ll find it in the 2019 QX50, which is well worth a look regardless, but the VC feature really puts the crossover on another level.

The scientific publication explains the technology well, saying that it is capable of changing its compression ratio from 8:1 to as much as 14:1. The higher the proportion, the more tightly you’re squeezing the air-fuel mixture in the engine. This means more power and gas efficiency.

Wouldn’t a high ratio be better all the time, then, you might wonder? Actually, no, because forced-induction engines (like anything that’s turbocharged) collect air and put it into the engine for better performance. Tight compacting can then cause unpredictable behavior or knocking.

The INFINITI variable compression turbo engine is a 2.0-liter inline-four, and it can operate at a very high ratio without knocking. This is just one of the many amazing aspects of the 2019 QX50! You’ll also appreciate occupant-sensing airbags, heated seats with memory, and a universal transceiver.

The next time you’re in the greater Seattle, Washington, area, stop by INFINITI of Tacoma. We can’t wait to schedule your test drive!

 
Have you ever found yourself in a perilous situation, far from home and without your cell phone? Whether your vehicle had broken down or someone in the car needed medical attention, it can be a terrifying experience. Especially in bad weather or after dark, having to walk miles to find help can be more than inconvenient--it may be downright dangerous.

Fortunately, the 2019 INFINITI QX50 has you covered with its emergency communication system. You should still try to keep your phone charged and handy, but your crossover has your back, should the worst occur.



How does the emergency communication system work, you might wonder? There’s actually an SOS button right on the dash. If you ever find yourself in a dangerous situation, simply press it, and you’ll be connected to an INFINITI representative. They can help you to contact the proper authorities. In addition, the response specialist will provide roadside assistance if you need it.

This all sounds quite reassuring, but the 2019 QX50 actually offers even more amazing safety features. A low tire pressure alert lets you know before you have a flat, which is quite handy. In addition, a blind spot warning takes some of the guesswork out of your commute.

Have you ever read the list of specifications for a vehicle you’re considering and been a bit lost? Oftentimes, some terms make sense, and others are a bit puzzling. For instance, what are delay off headlights? Part of the all-new 2019 INFINITI QX50, this feature is important, but it may not be as self-explanatory as you’d think.

Delay off headlights make it easy for your vehicle to illuminate the area around it when it is dark. This is an important safety feature so that you don’t trip or otherwise fail to observe a hazard. In neighborhoods that aren’t quite so quiet, it’s a great way to feel more secure when you’re alone at night, too.


Occasionally called a "relay delay," this feature keeps the headlights switched on for a pre-set amount of time after you turn off the vehicle and remove your keys. Sounds like a great assistive device, right?

The 2019 QX50 is filled with such amazing safety features as 
delay off headlights. It also includes anti-whiplash head restraints, brake assist, and an emergency communication system, all aimed at keeping you well. If this sounds like the vehicle for you, stop by INFINITI of Tacoma in Seattle, Washington, today and take a test drive! 
Congratulations on considering an INFINITI! You have great taste. Not only do these autos offer the utmost in luxury, they also feature only the best technologies to make your experience as the driver safer and more enjoyable. In addition, the performance of these vehicles is markedly better than those of other manufacturers because of the incredible thought that goes into their design and production.

Even in its simplest elements under the hood, the 2019 INFINITI QX50 takes the basics to the next level. For instance, it contains a block heater. This important piece warms the engine to increase the chances that it will start, especially in cold weather.



In some cases, you’ll find this technology as an electrical heating element in the cylinder block, connected by a cord that is run through the grille. In others, it relies on the vehicle’s gasoline and doesn’t require additional power. Coolant is heated and circulated, usually by thermosiphon, in the engine and the heater core.

The QX50 features a number of other impressive technologies to make your ride that much better. For instance, the vehicle boasts an emergency communication system for safety and a low tire pressure warning so you’ll never be caught unaware. Hurry

The 2019 QX50 boasts a number of fabulous features, including its blind spot sensor. Perhaps you’ve heard of other vehicles with this technology. You might have a general sense as to what this means without understanding it in full. Here are some basics about the amenity.

INFINITIs with blind spot sensors are working hard for your protection one hundred percent of the time. They boast a device that tracks traffic behind and alongside you. Using ultrasonic or radar on the sides and rear of the SUV, this safety feature keeps tabs on other cars, until they are no longer in your way.

The idea behind this technology is to prevent you from inadvertently moving into a position already occupied by another vehicle. This is all too easy to do when the car is in your blind spot, hence the need for these sensors (and the reason for their name).



You’ll be alerted via an indicator light on your side mirror whenever there is a vehicle in your blind spot. This way, when you check before switching lanes, you’ll know immediately whether or not it is safe to do so.

Intrigued? Stop by INFINITI of Tacoma today and test 
drive the fabulous 2019 QX50, filled with assistive technologies like blind spot monitoring. You’ll love everything about it!
 
You want a luxurious vehicle. You need one that contains plenty of safety features. Fortunately, the 2019 INFINITI QX50 is filled with the best technology to keep you and your entire family happy and well.

The occupant-sensing airbag is among the most important such features. Traditionally,
force would be applied without concern for who was sitting in the passenger seat. Obviously, this can cause a huge problem when a smaller adult or a child is present. They can be injured severely if they’re hit too hard.


Occupant-sensing airbags can solve this problem since they are able to tell the size and weight of the passenger and adjust direction or strength accordingly to safeguard against injuries. This is very important because serious damage can occur if safety equipment deploys at full force when a smaller rider is present.


The 2019 QX50 features occupant sensing airbags in addition to a number of other amazing amenities, such as heated seats with memory for your comfort. In addition, it includes a universal transceiver for your comfort and convenience. You will always travel in luxury and with peace of mind in this vehicle. Stop by INFINITI of Tacoma today and take a test drive! 
2019 infiniti qx50 for sale seattle bellevue washingtonAt one time or another, we have all had to do "the dance." You know the one. Hands full of groceries, or sports equipment, or kids while you try to access the trunk of your vehicle with your knee or elbow, or better yet, your single pinky finger on your non-dominant side. More than likely, in past situations you have had to put something down, or uncomfortably re-jig the arrangement of objects in your arms. However, with the 2019 INFINITI QX50, you can say goodbye to all of that.

This all-new sporty crossover is equipped with a proprietary Motion-Activated Liftgate — a convenient exterior feature that will undoubtedly make your life easier. It operates by way of a sensor on the back fender. When the fob-holder is within range of the vehicle — about three feet from the rear — the smart unit will detect the Intelligent Key and activate itself, at the ready should you need it.

From there, for entry into the cargo space, one must simply raise their foot within four inches of the bumper. Three beeps will sound and the hatch will either open or close (depending on its current position). There is no need to keep your leg raised for an extended period of seconds, nor do you need to move it side to side. The monitor is hyper-aware, requiring only the smallest amount of effort on your part.
