Thanks for the info. I've been digging around trying to find this to see how it stacks up to the others. IMO, it's perfectly sized for this segment. With the next FX growing is size closer to the X5, Infiniti will have a great one-two punch on the sport crossover market.

The interior is incredible, and beautifully designed. Even though it's in showcar trim, we can count on the guages remaining, as well as the center stack layout and overall dash design. This could be a huge hit for Infiniti.

i agree the interior looks great. and based on dimensions looks like it will be perfectly sized. i sat in the rdx awhile back and the back was very cramped, even for my 5'3" gf

Though obviously the sunroof will not make it to the production model, I think that the rest of it (the dashboard, console, seats etc.) are very production ready.
Wow! Infiniti is really seriously launching a full-on attack this time!

Altho that one pic of the interior that partially shows the rear looks pretty cramped back there.

Oh my goodness! Have you guys seen the side profile? It is SUPER HOT! It is absolutely beautiful! Even much better than the other 3/4 view press release photos that everyone has seen everywhere! I know that Infiniti is going to absolutely slaughter BMW and Acura this time....

I would not be so quick to be excited because the production version will be lot different from the concept version. For example, look at the new G37 production version compared to its concept version.
Everyone loved the concept version, but the G37 production version were toned-down lots and looks much different.
I would wait for the Actual production version to decide if it Good or Bad.....

except for minor details, the concept and production g37 doesn't look much different at all.

Ofcourse, the production versions of the Coupe Concept found in the G35 and G37 are nearly identical too.

The styling of the recent Infiniti's including the infamous G37 coupe evoke sexiness, daring styling, and set it apart in a good way from other carmaker designs.
Why can't Honda/Acura do this too?
Although the MDX looks kind of unique to me.

Not only do the new Infiniti designs evoke sexiness and what not, but they also give the brand an identity because when you look at them, you can immediately tell that they are Infinitis because of the lines of the body. Whereas Acuras basically rely on the grill to make them look related.

Which is IMO the main reason the RDX is selling below expectations.

Man that is GORGEOUS.
I have a M35X and the Ex looks like it may be next in line. Mine is a big sedan - with not alot of storage space.
If this baby rides nice - and particularly if they give it the 3.7 from the new coupe - I'm going to be explaining to the wifey again

Honestly, I like the RDX....but, just happen to hate its fuel economy. That said, the EX is sizing up to be a big nail in the RDX's sales coffin.
