Infiniti Launches Second Diesel Model - EX30d On Sale in Europe from July


Following on from the recent announcement on the FX30d, Infiniti's European arm has now released pricing for the smaller EX30d. On sale across Europe from July, Infiniti says it expects the EX diesel models to account for eight out of every 10 EX sales in the continent.

The EX30d is powered by the same 3.0-liter V6 turbo diesel found on the FX30d. It generates 238-horsepower and 550Nm (406 lb ft) of peak torque at 1750rpm, and is matted to a 7-speed automatic transmission.

The standard 0 to 100km/h (62mph) sprint comes in 7.9 seconds, while the crossover returns 8.5lt /100km (equal to 33.2mpg UK and 27.7mpg US) on the combined cycle with 224 g/km of CO2 emissions.

In the UK, the EX30d will be offered in three trim levels - basic, GT and GT Premium with prices set at £35,975, £37,305 and £41,220 respectively.

All EX30ds come as standard with active torque distribution all-wheel drive, Xenon cornering headlights, front and rear parking sensors, 18-inch alloy wheels, Scratch Shield self-healing paint, electrically adjustable front seats, power-fold rear seats, cruise control and a 7-speaker audio system with 6-CD changer, MP3 decoder, Aux-In and Bluetooth for mobile connectivity.
