Infiniti QX56

The 2011 Infiniti QX56 is all set to be showcased in the 2011 Chicago Auto Show beginning next month. Although the car was already displayed in the last year’s New York Auto Show, the new 2011, QX56 is longer, wider, and lower than the model that was displayed last year. The vehicle is a 4-door, up to 8-passenger luxury sport-utility which is available in two variants, the 2WD and the 4WD.

The two variants are basically equipped with a standard 5.6-liter, V8, 400-horsepower engine that can achieve 14-mpg in the city and 20-mpg on the highway. A 7-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard.
