The Infiniti QX70, formerly called the Infiniti FX until 2013, is a compact luxury[1] crossover SUV produced by the Nissan-owned Infiniti luxury vehicle brand between 2002 and 2019. The FX replaced the QX4 as Infiniti's mid-size SUV. It shares the same FM platform as the rear-wheel drive Nissan 370Z, and it "made no claims of climbing mountains." Rather, its aggressive shape promised style and quick handling.[2] The similarly sized Nissan Murano is based on the same D platform as the front-wheel drive Nissan Altima. The FX does not have a Nissan-branded equivalent and is not sold in Japan.
The FX introduced its second generation for the 2009 model year as the FX35 and FX50.
