What Changed

The big, bold Infiniti FX gets more aggressive styling and a bigger engine. Infiniti added a new 390-bhp 5.0L V-8 for the FX50, which replaces the 4.5L V-8 previously available on the FX45. The FX35 also gets a more powerful 3.5L V-6 with 303-bhp. Both engines are coupled to a new 7-speed automatic and optional magnesium paddle shifters.
