"The new rip-roaring Infiniti FX50 is a fine sporty crossover SUV, but with 390 horsepower, it’s a bit over the top."—Car and Driver²

"Unfortunately, high style has resulted in a sacrifice of some measure of practicality, as the FX35 offers less cargo room and versatility than most other competing midsize crossovers."—Edmunds³

"The Infiniti FX has evolved from a pseudo-SUV into a high-horsepower machine that focuses on paved-road performance."—Forbes Auto⁴
