Infiniti Motor Company, a leading automotive company, has achieved its best sales in the brand’s 29-year history this November, due to the growing customer demand for its new QX50 midsize SUV.

The company sold a record 22,126 vehicles globally in November, an increase of 6 per cent from the previous year, said a statement from Infiniti.  

The QX50 features a combination of expressive design, outstanding performance and state-of-the-art technology. It’s powered by a VC-Turbo engine, the world’s first variable compression ratio engine, which provides the power of a V6 and the efficiency of a four-cylinder, it said.

Infiniti also posted record sales in its two biggest markets, the US and China, it added.

The company’s sales rose 8 per cent in the US to 14,086 vehicles, and increased 9 per cent in China to 5,009.

Roland Krueger, chairman and global president of Infiniti, said: “Strong global demand for our new QX50 reinforces its compelling value proposition – stunning design inside and out, equipped with a host of driver assistance technologies and the world’s first variable compression ratio engine.”

“It’s the right vehicle, with the right technology at the right time, in the heart of the fast-growing midsize premium SUV segment,’ he said.

“It’s rewarding to have a vehicle that’s such a winner – especially in the US, our biggest market, and in China, our biggest growth market. Our retailers continue to do a phenomenal job taking care of our customers,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
