2013 Infiniti EX Press Kit: Overview

2013 Infiniti EX37 - A Uniquely Personal Expression of Style, Now Offered With Standard 3.7-Liter V6 and Infiniti Personal Assistant 24-Hour Concierge Service
2012 Infiniti EX35

Since its introduction, the Infiniti EX luxury crossover has been known for its uniquely personal style, combining a right-sized sculpted exterior, a rewarding interior environment and  suite of advanced technology features ranging from Around View Monitor (AVM) to Distance Control Assist (DCA).  For 2013, the popular EX's rewarding driving and ownership experience is enhanced with two key changes - the addition of a standard 325-horsepower 3.7-liter V6 (replacing the previous 3.5-liter V6) and the Infiniti Personal Assistant, which offers 24 hour access to live concierge services. 

Now named the Infiniti EX37, it is offered in four models: EX37 RWD, EX37 AWD, EX37 RWD Journey and EX37 AWD Journey.  Each comes equipped with a standard 7-speed automatic transmission.  The AWD models feature Infiniti's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system. 

"The Infiniti EX shares nearly all of the innovative technologies found in the Infiniti FX and Infiniti QX - such as Lane Departure Prevention (LDP), Intelligent Cruise Control and Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) with Forward Collision Warning - but in a more personal package," said Infiniti Americas Vice President Ben Poore.  "Add in enhanced performance from the new 3.7-liter V6, user-friendly functional utility, rewarding style and comfort, and access to a 24-hour personal concierge and you've got one of the best overall crossover packages on the market today."

Infiniti Personal Assistant provides new Infiniti owners access to a team of professional personal assistants from a registered phone.  Information and service requests range from directory assistance and weather forecasts to arranging tasks such as hotel or dinner reservations on the caller's behalf.

Personal Style, Inside and Out

The 2013 Infiniti EX's exterior combines the look and feel of a luxury coupe and a crossover's flexibility - with sporty proportions, including a long hood, short front and rear overhangs, rearward cabin and smooth coupe-like roofline.

Along with its excellent around town maneuverability, the wide rear hatch and low load floor make the EX a versatile performer for both everyday and weekend use.  The exterior includes many signature Infiniti touches, including a double-arch grille, large L-shaped headlights, available xenon auto-leveling headlights with Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS), integrated fog lights, distinctive LED taillights and "dynamic arch" profile. 

Other exterior features include a high-mounted rear hatchback spoiler with integrated brake light, chrome-finished dual exhaust tips, an available power sliding tinted glass moonroof with tilt feature, sliding sunshade and one-touch open/close (standard on EX Journey models) and available roof rails.  The  EX37 also features a standard courtesy light integrated in the driver's outside mirror as part of the hospitality lighting concept.  Six exterior colors are offered for 2013: Malbec Black, Midnight Garnet, Graphite Shadow, Liquid Platinum, Black Obsidian and Moonlight White.

The EX's dramatic interior offers an invigorating and engaging environment, one that is both indulgent and inspiring.  The driver-focused "wave-inspired" cabin layout features an Infiniti signature "double-wave" instrument panel, easy-to-read high-contrast gauges, hospitality lighting with a pin LED light mounted over the center console and Infiniti signature analog clock.  The instrument panel also features a 7-inch color display with Infiniti controller for the trip computer and additional vehicle information, including the available Infiniti Hard Drive Navigation System.  Other technology systems include an available Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System, and standard Infiniti Intelligent Key with Push Button Ignition and SiriusXM Satellite Radio (SiriusXM subscription required, sold separately).

The EX interior is offered with standard premium leather-appointed seating surfaces, available in three colors - Graphite, Wheat and Chestnut.

An 8-way power driver's seat and a 4-way power passenger's seat are standard.  A driver's seat memory system is also offered, along with heated front seats (standard on EX37 AWD and EX37 Journey RWD models) and an 8-way power front passenger's seat.  Also available is a power remote up-folding feature with dual controls (operated from the front or the hatch area) for the 2nd row 60/40 split seat.

The EX37 features aluminum accents, while EX37 Journey models offer maple interior accents.  There is also a leather-wrapped shift knob, and leather-wrapped steering wheel with controls for audio and cruise control.  The available Bose Premium Audio System includes 11 speakers (including 2 subwoofers), AM/FM/CD in-dash changer and USB connection port for iPod and other compatible devices.  The advanced Infiniti Hard Drive Navigation System includes Voice Recognition (VR) for audio and navigation, NavTraffic with Real-Time Traffic Information, NavWeather with Real-Time Weather Information (SiriusXM subscription required, sold separately), Zagat Survey Restaurant Guide and Streaming Audio via Bluetooth.

The EX's advanced Around View Monitor utilizes four small cameras located front, side and rear to give the driver a "top-down view" of the outside of the vehicle and help reduce blind spots when parking.

Advanced Platform and Powertrain

Under EX's dramatic body is an equally advanced platform and powertrain.  The FM (Front Midship) platform helps provide high levels of handling performance.  Every 2013 Infiniti EX37 now comes standard with a VQ37VHR 3.7-liter V6 engine, rated at 325 horsepower (versus the previous 3.5-liter V6's 297 horsepower) and 267 lb-ft of torque (versus the previous 253 lb-ft).  The engine is matched with a 7-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode, DS mode with Downshift Rev Matching (DRM), and Adaptive Shift Control.  EX fuel economy is rated at 17 mpg City/25 mpg Highway for the rear-wheel drive model and17 mpg City/24 mpg Highway for the all-wheel drive model.

Superb handling is provided by a subframe-mounted independent front double-wishbone suspension with aluminum-alloy upper and lower links, high-performance Dual-Flow Path shock absorbers and stabilizer bar. 

The rear suspension is an independent multi-link design with aluminum-alloy upper and lower links and axle housing, high-performance Dual-Flow Path shock absorbers and stabilizer bar. 

Steering is provided by a vehicle speed-sensitive power-assisted steering system.
EX's standard braking system includes power-assisted front and rear discs (vented front) and standard Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist .

Also standard is Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) with Traction Control System (TCS), while an advanced Intelligent Cruise Control (Full-Speed Range) is optionally available.

Available wheel and tire combinations include standard 18-inch 8-spoke metallic finish aluminum-alloy wheels with 225/55R18 all-season tires or optional 19-inch split 5-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels with 245/45R19 all-season tires.

Infiniti EX37 AWD models feature Infiniti's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, which utilizes an active torque distribution management system with an active center clutch.  The electromagnetic AWD system responds quickly, helping to minimize wheel slip in adverse conditions.

Standard EX37 safety equipment includes an Infiniti Advanced Air Bag System (AABS); driver and front passenger seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bags; roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags for outboard occupant head protection; and a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). 

Also standard are 3-point ALR/ELR seat belts (driver's side ELR only) and front seat belts with pretensioners and load limiters and adjustable upper anchors, front seat Active Head Restraints and the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) system for the rear outboard seating positions.  EX also features advanced Zone Body Construction with front and rear crumple zones to help disperse crash energy around the passenger compartment.

Available as part of the Technology Package is the Blind Spot Warning (BSW).  BSW illuminates an indicator light if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot area.  If the driver then uses the turn signal, the indicator flashes and an audible warning sounds.
