In its first year, the 2017 QX30 brought new customers to the brand, including young, active urban singles and couples who might not have considered INFINITI before.
For 2018, the category-defying QX30 again makes a bold visual statement, one that's backed by premium interior appointments, responsive performance and an extensive suite of advanced safety, security and driving assistance technologies.
In addition to its striking appearance, the QX30 offers confidence-inspiring handling and an available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. As a result, the QX30 is ideal to take on urban, suburban and winding rural roads in all driving conditions.
The QX30 exterior is characterized by dramatic curves and turbulent, sculpted character lines that make an emotional statement, evolving them into new dynamic shapes for a more purposeful appearance. Standard exterior features include signature LED daytime running lights and auto on/off halogen headlights, with available LED headlights with Active Front Lighting System and auto high/low beam function, and LED fog lights. A panoramic moonroof and roof rails are also offered.
The QX30 Sport includes unique front and rear lower fascias, gloss-black grille, body-color side sill panels, chrome trunk finisher, dark chrome exhaust finishers and unique 19-inch Gun Metallic aluminium-alloy wheels. It also features a slightly lower ride height than standard QX30 FWD models.
The QX30 Luxury AWD and QX30 Premium AWD include unique front and rear lower fascias, extended overfenders, unique black mold-in color side sills, roof rails, unique 18-inch machine finished aluminium-alloy wheels and a higher ride height.
The bold INFINITI design approach continues inside the stunning QX30, challenging traditional standards of symmetry with its expressive, modern and dynamic interior.
All QX30 models offer a standard Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, RearView Monitor, cruise control, power windows with front one-touch auto up/down with auto reverse, power door locks with selective unlocking, auto-dimming inside rearview mirror, dual overhead map lights and rear personal lights, INFINITI Intelligent Key, three 12-volt power outlets and Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control with rear seat vents on the console. Two USB ports allow phone charging while listening to music on a USB stick or drive.
Advanced audio, navigation and connectivity systems are also available, including a Bose® 10-speaker audio system and standard HD radio, SiriusXM® Satellite Radio (SiriusXM® subscription required, sold separately) and voice recognition for audio, Bluetooth® audio streaming and vehicle information. Also standard is SiriusXM® Travel Link with access to weather, fuel prices, stocks, sports and movie times (with 4-year complimentary trial access).
INFINITI's InTouch™ infotainment system provides highly intuitive finger touch and swipe control through a 7.0-inch touch-screen HMI (human machine interface). INFINITI Voice Recognition interacts with the InTouch™ infotainment system to control audio and navigation commands. Other available technology includes the Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection and Intelligent Cruise Control.
The QX30's advanced powertrain delivers a confidence-inspiring, dynamic driving experience aided by available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. The standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged unit is rated at 208 horsepower at 5,500 rpm, with peak torque of 258 lb-ft available from 1,200 rpm. The QX30 also includes an idle stop-start system in combination with the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine.
All 2018 QX30 models feature a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission system. The dual-clutch intelligently pre-selects gears so the next shift is always ready to go, while manual mode lets the driver control gear changes when desired. Delivering seamless acceleration at any speed and in any gear, the application of torque is almost uninterrupted during gear changes, reducing lurching while in motion and between shifts. Paddle shifters and drive mode selector are standard.
The QX30 Luxury AWD and QX30 Premium AWD models come equipped with INFINITI's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system.
The 2018 QX30, as expected of any INFINITI, offers a range of active safety and hazard avoidance technologies that enhance the driving experience. The QX30 Sport features the Intelligent Park Assist system, which uses 12 sensors to determine if a potential parking spot is the right size. If it is, the driver simply presses a button to confirm and operate the accelerator, shifter and brake pedal. The QX30 will park itself smoothly in parallel or reverse-in parking spots*. Intelligent Park Assist is also available on QX30 Premium models as part of the optional Technology Package.
Other available QX30 safety, security and driver's assistance features include Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Forward Emergency Braking.
The 2018 INFINITI QX30 is available in six trim levels: QX30, QX30 Luxury, QX30 Premium, QX30 Sport, QX30 Luxury AWD and QX30 Premium AWD.

*Intelligent Park Assist is a parking aid and is not a substitute for your full attention of your immediate surroundings. The driver is always responsible for safe maneuvering into and out of a parking space. The driver must always ensure that there are no people, animals, or objects in the area in which you are maneuvering and parking.
