The Infiniti EX Concept, with its seductive, coupe-inspired design, luxurious interior and unique liquid crystal glass roof that can change from transparent to translucent, looks like the quintessential show car. In reality, the EX Concept is a preview of the all-new Infiniti EX luxury crossover SUV, which is set to arrive at Infiniti retailers nationwide by the end of calendar year 2007.

The EX Concept also showcases two innovative systems that are expected to be the first production versions in the world when the new Infiniti EX goes on sale in North America in late 2007: Around View Monitor (AVM) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP).

The AVM system utilizes front, side and rear-mounted cameras to help reduce the blind spots when parking, while the LDP system takes Infiniti’s currently available Lane Departure Warning System into a new dimension of safety by actively using the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system to help assist the driver in maintaining lane position if the vehicle inadvertently starts to drift out of the lane.

Like every Infiniti model, the EX Concept also emphasizes exhilarating driving performance, combining V6 power, a 5-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
