The INFINITI Q70 performance luxury sedan embodies the essence of all things INFINITI – style, performance, luxury, craftsmanship and technology – in a choice of body styles and powertrains. For 2017, the lineup includes the standard wheelbase Q70, the long-wheelbase Q70L with an additional 5.6 inches of rear seat legroom, and the "driver's hybrid" Q70 Hybrid.
The standard wheelbase INFINITI Q70 is offered in four models, the Q70 3.7, Q70 3.7 AWD, Q70 5.6 and Q70 5.6 AWD. (For full information and specifications on the Q70 Hybrid and Q70L models, please visit INFINITInews.com.)
The Q70's dramatic, sports styling provides a powerful presence, along with a coefficient of drag of just 0.27 . Inside, the roomy and comfortable Q70 interior environment features available leather-appointed seating, standard Japanese Ash wood trim or available silver powdered genuine White Ash wood trim and available premium audio and climate control systems. Key standard features include INFINITI Intelligent Key with Push Button Ignition, SiriusXM® Satellite Radio (SiriusXM® subscription required, sold separately), Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System and power sliding glass tinted moonroof.
Both Q70 3.7 and Q70 5.6 models are offered with rear-wheel drive or INFINITI's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. The Q70 3.7 features a 330-horsepower 3.7-liter V6 engine, while the Q70 5.6 offers a 420-horsepower 5.6-liter V8. Both engines feature INFINITI's advanced VVEL (Variable Valve Event & Lift) system and all models are equipped with a standard 7-speed automatic transmission.
The Q70 Sport Package, offered on both rear-wheel- drive and all-wheel- drive models, includes a sport-tuned suspension, Sport Brakes, 20-inch wheels and tires, sport seats, solid magnesium paddle shifters and more.
The 2017 Q70 remains a showcase for INFINITI's advanced, user-focused technologies, including an INFINITI Drive Mode Selector, a four-mode driver-selectable control of throttle and transmission mapping that helps optimize vehicle performance; Active Noise Control, which reduces undesirable engine harmonics, providing a quieter cabin; Blind Spot Warning, which helps alert the driver if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot area; Blind Spot InterventionÔ that, in addition to the Blind Spot Warning, helps the driver return the vehicle back toward the center of the lane of travel; Eco Pedal, which provides driver feedback to encourage eco-driving behavior; and Active Trace Control, which adjusts engine torque and utilizes braking at each of the four wheels to help enhance cornering performance.
The 2017 Q70 also offers INFINITI Navigation System, Bose® Studio Surround® premium audio system, Intelligent Cruise Control (Full-Speed Range), Lane Departure Warning and Lane Departure Prevention systems, Distance Control Assist, Intelligent Brake Assist with Forward Collision Warning and Front Pre-Crash Seat Belts.
