High End Luxury in an SUV
If you are looking for a sport utility vehicle that is luxurious on the inside while still providing plenty of power under the hood, the Infiniti EX30d may be the right fit for you.
The Infiniti EX30d is a surprising addition to the Infiniti family with its fuel efficient ways. For a vehicle of its size and power it packs a wallop at the fuel station getting you around thirty three miles per gallon, a refreshingly lighter blow to your pocketbook. It's maximum speeds top off at one hundred and thirty seven miles an hour but it is hardly a range that most motorists will ever come near. That however is where the savings end.
For the Infiniti EX30d, you will be shelling out a fair lot. To call one of these your own, you are looking at a price tag starting around a shocking £36,000 to just over £41,000. Like I said, not one that will be within most family budgets, but certainly one that will catch the attention of those high end buyers.
The inner workings are those of the well known Nissan providing quality you can count on. However, there is something to be said about the about the type of sport utility this is...a crossover. Ever the common term nowadays, in essence it refers to a new class of vehicles designed to handle our daily driving lives a bit better. Let's face it, we don't often trek the unknown trails of the world. In fact, more often than not the largest obstacle we face is whether to take the long road home or the quicker shortcut. Having a vehicle prepared to work with us in our "natural" habitat is simply a plus to an already impressive vehicle.
The impressive nature of this vehicle does not stop there though as we have yet to open the door. Upon doing so we discover a plethora of luxury options, some of which we may have only dreamed possible. For example, you have heard of parking sensors, right? Those little gadgets that help to alert you if you are backing up to closely to another vehicle or stationary object? In the Infiniti EX30d, they have taken this safety feature to a new level adding multiple cameras to provide a birds eye look at the situation and reduce your chance of collision by up to twenty percent.
After safety is considered, we take comfort into account. The plastic trims and other areas commonly skimped on in other sport utilities are nowhere to be found. In their place, we see leather trims and high quality fabrics true to the luxury standards one would expect in a vehicle bearing this brand name. Add to that the availability of a multi-disc CD player and electronic seats and you are looking at pure convenience as well.
So take another look at the new face of the sport utility. The Infiniti EX30d brings to you a world of power and control with the unexpected luxury of a full sized vehicle in a compact design. Consider the possibilities...
