Line-up of its all-new QX30 premium active crossover for the United States and Canada.

While sharing basic exterior and interior designs, the QX30 line will be offered in three unique versions, each with its own front and rear fascia, wheel design and interior themes:
  • QX30: The crossover’s highly sculpted exterior, unique stance and asymmetric cabin design exemplify Infiniti’s design-led approach to product development. This version is sold in Europe and other regions outside of the Americas under the Q30 name. In the Americas, this model will be front-wheel drive.
  • QX30S: With a lower stance, aggressive front and rear fascia, cross-drilled front brake rotors, 19-inch wheels and performance tires, the QX30S is the sports version of Infiniti’s new premium compact line. It was shown at this year’s Los Angeles Auto Show and is sold in other markets as the Q30S.
  • QX30 AWD: With an intelligent all-wheel drive system, slightly higher ride height and off-road inspired front and rear valence panels, the vehicle is able to take on urban, suburban and winding rural roads in all driving conditions. The QX30 AWD debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show as the QX30.
The QX30 line for the U.S. and Canada is powered by a 208-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder mated to a 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission, and it is scheduled to go on sale at Infiniti retailers in the United States and Canada in mid-2016 and in Mexico and Latin America in the second half of 2016.

Infiniti has revealed an aggressive new product portfolio expansion based on a series of acclaimed concept cars that had been introduced in the last two years, including the Infiniti Q60 Concept. The production version of the 2017 Infiniti Q60 sport coupe makes its world debut January 11, 2016 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

Infiniti announces QX30 line-up in the Americas
 
Got really good reviews in Motor Trend mostly attributing it to being built on the Mercedes-Benz CLA platform. Basically is the same chassis, powertrain
and engine...Infiniti just slapped on the body and interior. Not a big fan either but will probably sell well.
 
they are gonna price this in canada the same as benz, and who ever buys a vehicle like this is a brand whore, so they will go out and buy the mercedes version of this. I don't think this will sell well at all.
 
It's not the best looking mini crossover but I think they will sell well here in the States.

I have owned an FX45, 3 or 4 FX35s, G35 Coupe, EX35, some G sedans, and my wife now owns a new QX50 which she and I really enjoy (Almost a QX70 at a friendlier price). I am hoping to see a QX30 soon. When are they expected to hit the U.S. dealers? I am watching the Bonita Springs/Naples Florida dealers, as well as the Cleveland & Pittsburgh dealers and none in sight yet. Have any showed up anywhere yet? They look good, but I want to drive it and compare to the QX50 in ride and handling. Their introductory advertising says mid-2016. (Arriving when?)

Just bought a new QX30 in Blade Silver with most of the goodies - like it even more than my wife's 2016 QX50, which is also a great car. It also makes our garage look larger, and has plenty of power (put it in "S" and you will think you are driving a V8). Handles well and has great brakes, plus a very luxurious wheat interior.

Not feeling the looks and my 08 Charger R/T already has a Mercedes AWD drivetrain and Trans.
