The modern-day green movement in America has had a tremendous impact around the world. As Seattleites, we have become increasingly aware of our carbon footprint and are constantly seeking out ways to lessen its effects. Automakers are answering government and consumer demands with more alternative-fuel options than ever before.
INFINITI has led this charge on the luxury-side of the market, with the introduction of its first ever four-cylinder vehicle - which also happens to be a hybrid.
The 2014 QX60 Hybrid is a supercharged crossover featuring the perfect combination of efficiency and performance. This gas-sipping CUV grabs a combined fuel economy of 26 MPG, an impressive feat for an AWD seven-passenger vehicle. A generous 19.5-gallon tank (along with the electric motor) offers a total range of 507 miles.Â
Under the hood sits a 2.5-liter I-4 engine, which (when working in conjunction with its 15-kW electric motor) delivers a performance-worthy 250 HP rating. Motor Trend Magazine put this gas-electric powertrain to the test, clocking its ability to jog from 0-60 MPH in just eight seconds flat. Comparatively, the all-wheel-drive version of the 2013 Buick Enclave met the same challenge in 8.5 seconds.Â
Go green without sacrificing performance or space with a pre-owned 2014 INFINITI QX60 Hybrid. Take it for a test drive today.
