About the 2008 Infiniti EX35
EX35's sculpted elegance expresses a timeless appeal, with sleek lines that portray speed, grace and finesse. Its layout combines the look and feel of a luxury coupe and an SUV's interior flexibility. EX35 is also conceived to offer a reinvigorating and engaging interior environment, with a long list of features including leather-appointed seating, power-folding 2nd row seat and available advanced audio and navigation systems.
Available industry-leading EX35 technology features include the Around View Monitor (AVM) system, which utilizes four small cameras to give the driver a “top-down view” of the outside of the vehicle while parking and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system, which uses the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system to help assist the driver in maintaining lane position if the vehicle inadvertently starts to drift out of the intended lane. The new EX also features standard “Scratch Shield” paint, a special “self-healing” clear coat designed to maintain its gloss level over time and keep the EX looking new.
Like every Infiniti model, the 2008 EX35 also emphasizes exhilarating driving performance, combining a 297-horsepower 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine with a 5-speed automatic transmission with Manual Shift Mode and Drive Sport Mode (DSM), assisted by Downshift Rev Matching (DRM) and Adaptive Shift Control (ASC), and available intelligent all-wheel drive.
