In this context, the global auto brand is promoting the Infiniti QX50, its sporty coupe variant, the QX55, QX60 and QX80 as fitting the bill.
When choosing the right crossover or SUV for an urban lifestyle in the Middle East, consider size, fuel efficiency, safety features, infotainment capabilities, and comfort level.
By prioritising these aspects, one will experience the practicality and versatility needed to navigate busy city streets or embark on weekend getaways away from cities.
Compact size and manoeuvrability
A compact crossover or SUV is one’s best friend in congested city streets and busy parking lots.
Look for a model with a nimble and agile driving experience, making navigating tight spots and crowded traffic easy.
A sophisticated and elegant crossover like the Infiniti QX50 (featured image) or its sporty coupe variant, the QX55 is an ideal choice that balances style, agility, power, and easy manoeuvrability.
Fuel efficiency
Choosing a fuel-efficient vehicle is crucial due to fluctuating fuel prices worldwide.
Choose a crossover or SUV with an engine that offers good fuel economy without compromising performance. If you crave a spirited ride, the Infiniti QX50 precisely delivers that.
On the other hand, the Infiniti QX55 utilises state-of-the-art technology to offer a sportier feel while driving without compromising fuel efficiency.
The larger QX60 also delivers best-in-class fuel efficiency, leading to a more refined drive experience in all conditions.
Advanced safety
Safety is paramount in Middle East city driving, where unpredictable road conditions and heavy traffic are typically encountered.
In this regard, look for a crossover or SUV model with advanced safety features like blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.
These technologies can provide an extra layer of protection and help prevent potential accidents in urban environments. Infiniti vehicles all feature ProPilot Assist, an advanced safety tool suite that ensures on-road safety.
Infotainment and connectivity
In the tech-savvy urban landscape of the Middle East, staying connected is essential. Choose a crossover or SUV with a user-friendly infotainment system that supports smartphone integration, such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Having rapid access to navigation, music, and hands-free calling can make one’s daily commute
enjoyable and efficient.
Comfort and luxury
Middle Eastern city life can be demanding, so having a comfortable and luxurious vehicle interior can make a significant difference during daily drives.
Look for a crossover or SUV that offers premium materials, supportive seating, and advanced amenities like dual-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, massage seats and space for up to seven.
