The Infiniti QX Sport Inspiration mid-sized SUV concept made its global public debut today at the 2016 Beijing Auto Show. As with all such recent concepts, subtlety is abandoned – or mocked – in favor of strong, exaggerated lines, with aggressive accents and details. This radical approach is not without risk because the mid-sized SUV class is one of the largest and fastest-growing premium segments. Whether this approach inspires buyers remains to be seen.
Infiniti President, Roland Krueger, said: “The QX Sport Inspiration is a statement of intent from Infiniti, showcasing a daring design philosophy and a demonstration of our capabilities in the mid-size SUV segment.”
The next QX is going to be off-road capable, aided by the concept’s raised, 230 mm (9.1 in) ground clearance. The concept has a short front overhang and wide stance – total width (excluding rear-view cameras) is 1,900 mm (74.8 in), while length is 4,600 mm (181.1 in).
