The 2019 INFINITI QX50 is here, and it is definitely worth all the hype it has been receiving. Delivering the world’s first production-ready compression ratio engine to Washington roads, this impressive crossover offers a winning combination of sportscar prowess and eco-friendly efficiency.
Thanks to over 20 years of research and innovation, the 2.0-liter VC-Turbo engine is able to consistently transform pressure ratios from 8:1 (for performance) to 14:1 (for economy). The result is seamless responses to varying road conditions and driver inputs.
According to The Car Connection, “wrapped in luxury crossover clothes, the 2.0-liter turbo-4 under the hood is a remarkable achievement for its frugality and ingenuity.†Capable of producing up to 268 HP, operators can enjoy uncompromising athletic ability. The advanced multi-link system lowers the variables to allow for greater energy and torque, without knocking.
Alternatively, raising the quotients provides environmentally-savvy advantages. The QX50 manages to net a 30% improvement in fuel-economy from previous generations, earning 24 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway for a combined rating of 27 MPG.
