Invisible Waves - Infiniti M35

When the luxury, power, elegant, subtle, and many other elements of integration, which will reach a kind of state? Perhaps an Infiniti M35 will allow you to fully appreciate the mystery, this in order to show his face limousine car awesome bones are hidden undercurrents, not only allows customers to admire, but also feel great pressure on opponents.


Nissan's sub-brand for high society Infiniti originally intended for the North American market was born, but now look similar to the fate of the Lexus to expand the global performance in full swing, seems to be encouraged. With last year's FX series and G series models in the domestic market, Infiniti is also strange that the Chinese brand announced the official visit in China market in China for many years, but compared to the Lexus, as a latecomer to it There is still a long way to go.

This in front of the Infiniti M35 is the most hardcore of the main models, in fact, the Infiniti M series is the flagship sedan cars. At this stage in the domestic sales of M Series 3.5L V6 engine with only the unity of the two models, that is today's M35 Standard and respect is still version. Eyesight is good people will soon find Infiniti M series was introduced with the previous years, Nissan Fuga luxury models have a very high similarity, in fact, the Infiniti M series is also not shy about developed from the basis of elegance, from the elegant main rivals locked in BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-class and Lexus GS series, and other enemies who, while in the traditional arena of luxury cars, the Nissan brand lack of height would be fatal, and now exceed those of the M35 not only inherited the predecessors of all high-quality, but also a unique way of self-sublimation, Infiniti sought to make this a big success in North America, the brand can also be enjoyed in China the same reputation.

M35 2008 models are basically the same in the body and under the premise of elegance, the use of many clever details of the design to clear their differences. It is also a high-end executive car's location, but it is more focused on the movement characteristics of the shape. Although the line largely unchanged, but the new front bumper shape becomes more dynamic, but also elegant lines with the whole body together more posts. Size larger wheels no longer be as gentle as before, and with the limited capabilities of a 245/45R18, as if ready to challenge the limits to show off a camel. The main changes from the rear taillights, but the new models despite the combination of unchanged form of the now popular use of the LED design, the new refractive prisms become more three-dimensional, texture is more crystal clear. Correspond with the front bumper, rear bottom of the new design is the aerodynamic flow channel, this easily overlooked part of the trunk lid is now with slightly upturned edges together to enhance the contribution of handling modest.

Japanese high-end models like the practice, M35 also has a luxurious, delicate, standard first-class driving space. Exquisite high-quality interior materials research, the crew the whole body is bright silver alloy, moist Rosewood and surrounded by soft leather; ladder-shaped center console is also a major feature of M35, but this time more than in the control center of the function knob can finally with its own delicate and texture of the pressure off the LCD screen of the limelight. With this knob and buttons around it, you can easily control the navigation system, touch screen does not make up for the deficiencies caused. Powerful steering wheel and the engine start button to display the elegant high-end status of the M35, the perforated leather wrapped steering wheel with four designs, each about two separate control buttons, with many high-end models of different highly integrated control system is, M35's steering wheel controller into the system, without disturbing each other, to use more easy to use. The long wheelbase of 2,900 mm makes the M35's rear space is very generous, but giving people a deeper impression is that it powerful rear seats, M35's rear passengers can enjoy not only the independent DVD with remote control system, after Block regulatory function of the rich also no better than the front row less, in addition to heating, front and rear left and right rear seats can also adjust the position, backrest angle change will follow, as if turned into a comfortable business class.

M35 equipped with the famous VQ35 DE engine, with CVTCS continuously variable valve timing technology. The world's top ten for 14 consecutive years received the title of the engine the engine output up to 206 kW maximum power, and peak torque of 363 Nm. VQ35 have appeared in the sounds of nature, 350Z and other Nissan models on the variety, it has the advantage not only powerful, outstanding ride comfort even more admirable. M35 using the VQ35 DE in the adjustment is slightly different, but still retained the VQ35 ultimately contribute to uniform, the characteristics of a deep potential, starting from the idle to the red zone, to accelerate the process of the engine without any weakness, tachometer pointer all the way across, without any pause. Flash point of the acceleration process is not rapid but calmly, without more ado, you can feel the power of the engine power through the back pass to your body, but the whole process and not feel awkward, given the positioning of its models, it is perhaps the driver and passengers the most willing to accept performance.

M35 used for the 5-speed automated manual transmission models, compared to the same level of widespread use of the 6-speed models, and even 7-speed transmission, 5-speed transmission, a bit outdated, but for ordinary consumers, this difference seems to be difficult generated in daily use sensory difference. Since this transmission with intelligent learning ability, it will based on the driver's driving habits and vehicle traffic traveling to automatically adjust, more interesting is that when a user uses lower gear when the manual mode, the transmission or even to give directions to the engine auto-fill oil! Car driving skills in simulated root toe action. High intelligence and a unique manual mode for the M35 5-speed transmission plus a lot of fun but also make it less no better than rivals.

Excellent chassis and a wealth of electronic aids make the M35 in the provision of a full driving fun but also safe and reliable enough, the ICC system is also innovative in its class it is unique.

Although several different M35 lock competitors, but its most direct attack was aimed at the BMW 5 Series. The same as the excellent performance of the administrative control of car, M35 and many of the characteristics are very similar to the BMW 5 Series, but with the advantage of power on, M35 of the sport even beyond the competitors to set the terms of the chassis, M35 appears to be more than the 5 Series conservative, although it is chassis is very solid, robust enough to ensure that the bend in the skill, but the comfort of the accommodation to be significantly more than the opponent, the performance of a more delicate suspension, but the right path and the transmission and feedback is being slightly less than Many times you can be sure your have enough control of the car, can feel very safe, but the car gives a sense of communication has become less direct.

But even so, FR layout of the M35, or have the ability to evoke emotions, to make ordinary people easy controlling, M35 is equipped with a full passenger driver assistance systems, including the VDC (vehicle dynamic control system), TCS (Traction Control System), TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) and so active safety systems, including emergency situations can be controlled to ensure maximum vehicle, but a skilled racer, these various secondary has become a bondage. Even without electronic aids turned off, when, M35 in the corners have a slight oversteer performance, and once to close the device, it can immediately become the apple of drift enthusiasts, a strong driving force can easily break the rear wheel adhesion limits, and then mercilessly destroying tires.

M35 is another fun intelligent cruise control from the ICC, although it does not improve handling, but will have to make driving easier and more fun. In high speed, open the ICC intelligent cruise function, set up the appropriate following distance, M35 will be able to use the front of the car before locking the laser range finder, and the vehicle in front of the speed with automatic oil change or brakes to maintain The default distance between vehicles, even if the ICC does not open intelligent cruise, the system can monitor the vehicle in front at any time from and to take timely measures to pre-braking, and to help drivers avoid rear-end to remind the danger.


Car view

For M35, the elegance of shape to how to seek a breakthrough in technological excellence is indeed a problem, so skillfully Infiniti focus to attract users to more easily achieve up to upgrade the configuration. M35 is still respect for the user to prepare a version of an unprecedented BOSE 5.1-channel sound system, the number of its speakers reached the 14 much exaggerated, perhaps we can sound system from a fever to see more in-depth some of the body, that is, M35 want to appeal through the details of the desire to shape the brand.

In addition to the flagship Lexus cars outside the most popular in the country and even well-matched with the appeal and BMW 530Li. M35 is compared with the ride comfort, quiet interior, etc., but on the other hand in the power of the 3.0L engine but with a greater gap between the M35.

M35 most direct competitor, driving pleasure with a more direct and more powerful brand, although the weaker power, but the wheelbase was lengthened to make it more in line with the demands of executive saloon cars, but the price makes it more than 70 million in M35 is not before us at all cost.
