Nissan will showcase the Infiniti EX Concept at the New York Auto Show April 6th – 15th. The Japanese automaker describes the EX as “part futuristic concept car, part near-production vehicle.”
The EX features a coupe-inspired design, luxurious interior and unique liquid crystal glass roof that can change from transparency to translucent.
A production vehicle derived from the concept will be in showrooms by the end of the year, Nissan says. “In reality, the EX Concept is a very real preview of an all-new luxury crossover that’s inspired by coupe design, which is set to arrive at Infiniti retailers nationwide by the end of calendar year 2007.”
Anticipated to be available on the production version as “world’s first technologies,†the EX Concept showcases two innovative features: Around View Monitor (AVM) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP).
The Around View Monitor system utilizes front, side and rear-mounted cameras to help reduce the blind spots when parking, while the Lane Departure Prevention system takes Infiniti’s currently available Lane Departure Warning System into a new dimension of safety by actively using the VDC system to help assist the driver in maintaining lane position if they inadvertently start to drift out of the lane.
