Infiniti unveiled their
2019 QX50 crossover at the LA Auto Show, thus building on the QX Sport
Inspiration concept and at the same time introducing what they call a ‘Powerful
Elegance’ design.
Another thing that stood out back then regarding the
QX50 was the launch of the world’s first variable compression ratio engine in
the 2.0-liter VC-Turbo unit, producing 268 hp and 380 Nm of torque. Altogether, a very interesting new player for the premium compact
SUV segment.
Still, if you’re the type of customer who always
expects more from their car than what factory-standard products are able to
deliver, then know that tuner Larte Design is currently working on a body kit
for the QX50, comprised of a custom splitter for the front bumper, blacked out
grille, new badging, and a custom diffuser out back, which looks very chunky
and sporty. Add it all together and you gain considerably more road presence, as
long as that’s what you’re looking for in the first place.
At this point we’re not sure when the project will
be finalized, but we look forward to learning more about it in due course.
