With their elegant style and top-of-the-line tech, INFINITI vehicles are highly regarded for their beauty and brains. But a recent partnership with the Mongolian Institute of Paleontology and Geology and the Hong Kong Chapter of The Explorers Club proves that this luxury fleet has its fair share of brawn as well.
Â
The Explorers Club is known for making history. They were the first to visit the North and South Poles, and they uncovered the ocean floor. This adventurous trend continues now at their camp in the Gobi Desert, where they, along with the Institute, have uncovered a number of important fossils: including a very rare primitive horned dinosaur in Bugyn Tsav.
Â
Where does INFINITI come in? Until recently, paleontologists would survey land by foot. For this 20-day expedition, however, a fleet of 2019 QX50s took them far and wide to prospect the topography. Throughout the experience, the hardy vehicles were subjected to sandstorms, boiling summer temperatures, and treacherous terrains.... and they endured all of this with ease.
Â
The 2019 QX50 gets its power from the first-of-its-kind VC-T engine, which yields class-leading performance (268 HP) and superior economy (24 city/30 highway). A brand new suspension damping control system affords drivers a steady ride; and, when paired with a minimum ground clearance of 8.6-in., it also allows them to roll over every obstacle.
Â
With revolutionary tech and engineering, INFINITI is also in the business of making history. It’s no surprise that the Institute and Explorer's Club chose the luxury vehicle company as their partner.
