The Boston Marathon is the oldest continuously run event of its kind in the world. On April 16, athletes from around the globe will arrive in the historic east coast city to participate in the annual race. In anticipation for its 122nd year, the B.A.A. announced a long-term sponsorship agreement with INFINITI.

On top of this larger announcement, the 2019 QX50 was also named the official vehicle of the 2018 Boston Marathon. INFINITIâ€™s newest premium crossover was chosen to guide runners along the 26.2-mile course due to its athletic exterior appearance and race-worthy performance.

The outside of the new QX50 is a stunning reflection of the premium brandâ€™s latest design language. An open honeycomb grille delivers a welcoming first impression before the aggressively sculpted hood is noticed by onlookers. A staunch ground clearance (8.6-inches) combines with a generous track width (74.9-inches) for a low, yet commanding on-road presence.

As visually appealing as this crossover is, the most impressive part of the 2019 QX50 lies just out of sight. Under its hood sits the worldâ€™s first mass-produced VC-Turbo engine. The 2.0-liter variable compression motor can change how it operates (for increased efficiency or power) based on driver intentions. Making 268 HP (less than the 2018 versionâ€™s 325) and 280 lb.-ft. of torque, this high-end performer manages to net a 30-percent improvement in fuel economy stats (now 24 MPG city and 31 highway) compared to its predecessor (17/24).

As runners prepare for the 2018 Boston Marathon later this month, you can take home your very own version of the eventâ€™s official vehicle - the 2019 INFINITI QX50.
