HONG KONG Infiniti today provides the first full glimpse of the QX30
Concept, which will have its world premiere at the 2015 Geneva
International Motor Show. The crossover concept hints at a future
premium compact vehicle and gives a strong indication of the brand's
commitment to this segment.

Pushing design boundaries, the QX30 Concept combines the sleek lines
of a coupe with the distinguishing features and higher stance of a
crossover. Looking poised for action, yet fluid, it promises to
deliver effortless capability with style.

"We wanted the spontaneous fluidity of the QX30 Concept design to
cut through the urban clutter and rigidity, reflecting its go-anywhere
and spur-of-the-moment nature," said Alfonso Albaisa, Infiniti
Executive Design Director. "The QX30 Concept has been designed to
make occupants feel safe and protected inside, and customers can drive
in or out of the city without worrying about nicks to the
chromework."

The theme of "stylish protection" is evident from nose to
tail. The designers have given QX30 Concept a more pronounced
aluminum-trimmed bumper up front, while rounding up the rear with a
tough skid plate sculpted with nuanced graphics.

The QX30 Concept's smooth exterior shape is composed of bold sections,
deep upward cuts and intersecting contours to create Infiniti's
hallmark "dual wave" effect. The aerodynamic design
accentuates its athletic silhouette, showcasing its confident
capability. Carbon fiber in the lower cladding and roofbar supports
adds to the car's lightweight performance character.

The 21-inch wheels and larger profile tires are core to the
crossover's sure-footed stance. The spokes are a unique mix of
three-dimensional milled aluminum finished in different tones, which
interlock in a distinctive manner.

Even the roof racks have gone beyond their merely functional use.
Extending inward toward the center line alongside the glass roof, they
provide a "sculpture" for the rear passengers to look
through, resulting in an unusual perspective of the world outside.

"The QX30 Concept design conveys a sophisticatedly gritty sense
of strength and durability, but tough doesn't mean rough," said
Albaisa. "We've retained a sense of artistry throughout, even in
the most functional of parts."

QX30 Concept will be officially unveiled on March 3 during Infiniti's
press conference at the 2015 Geneva International Motor Show starting
at 2:15 p.m. local time.
