Key Features
Engines
The Infiniti M® is designed to provide exhilarating power with every drop of fuel used. Exclusive VVEL® technology continually tunes valve lift and timing to give quicker engine response and a broader torque curve with enhanced economy. Choose from the 3.7-liter V6 or 5.6-liter V8 with Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG™), and feel the surge of up to 420 crafted horsepower.
Crafted Feel
The Infiniti M® delivers an invigorating experience that ignites the senses. Acceleration Swell transforms the delivery of power into the smooth continual rush of a peaking wave. Zero-Lift Aerodynamics help keep the M grounded, amplifying handling and driver control, while the FM Platform reduces body roll and increases stability, helping you move fluently through curves.
Sport Package
Available performance enhancements heighten the experience of driving. 4-Wheel Active Steer and sport-tuned suspension provide agile response and handling. Split 5-spoke, 20-inch alloy wheels maximize feedback while robust sport brakes improve stopping power. Aggressive front fascia and grille visually express performance and racing-inspired, deep-bolstered seats cradle the driver.
4-Wheel Active Steer

By actively turning all four wheels as you steer, 4-Wheel Active Steer elevates handling and the very experience of each corner. The system adjusts steering angle and ratio to vehicle speed, creating a more responsive and fluid sense of control. With natural low-speed feel, responsive mid-speed turn-in, and precise high-speed stability, 4-Wheel Active Steer makes cornering gracefully easy.
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD)

(2011 Infiniti M shown)
Infiniti's Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) provides power where and when you need it, instantly adapting to changing conditions. By constantly monitoring wheel-spin, throttle position and vehicle speed, this system automatically diverts up to 50% of the available power to the front wheels, enhancing traction and control in adverse conditions. When all-wheel drive is not needed, the system sends 100% of the power to the rear wheels for more responsive road performance.
Magnetic Exterior
The Infiniti M® captivates with a graceful form inspired by nature. The sweeping contours of its body look as if carved by the wind. Flowing like a rising wave, the hood and fenders hint at raw power beneath. Infiniti designers carefully sculpted each surface to shimmer in light or to capture shadow, giving the M a rare and magnetic presence.
Welcoming Cockpit
Infiniti creates an experience that anticipates and satisfies your every need with thoughtful and intelligent design. Controls and instrumentation are positioned for instinctive reach and use. Each component is crafted for recognition by shape and feel, ensuring that the driver connects with the Infiniti M® intuitively, by touch alone.
Exquisite Aesthetics
Available White Ash silver-powdered wood trim infuses the interior of the Infiniti M® with a modern approach to timeless Japanese artistry. Console, dash, and arm pieces are then hand-sanded, hand-polished, and hand-buffed to create a rare, glistening luster. This is the human touch of elegance.
Matchless Materials
Infiniti is committed to creating a pleasing and refined sense of place. We conducted extensive research to determine the ideal feeling for key interior surfaces of the Infiniti M®. The seats and console feel impossibly soft – the perfect balance of texture and tension. Frequently contacted areas are clad in a uniquely crafted fabric designed to be sumptuous and rewarding to your every touch.
Forest Air
Infiniti has recreated the calming sensation of a natural breeze inside the Infiniti M® with the Forest Air® system. Advanced Auto Recirculation helps neutralize odors first by closing outside vents when unpleasant scents are detected, and then by cleansing and purifying interior air to remove airborne allergens. The purified air is circulated with the gentle ebb and flow of a breeze, rejuvenating and soothing the senses.
Meticulous Hospitality
Your vehicle is a welcome sanctuary. As you approach the vehicle, it senses your Intelligent Key (I-Key) and responds with the radiant glow of sequenced exterior and interior lights. Each emits a soft, inviting glow, welcoming you back to the warm, secure cabin. To make your entrance as hospitable as possible, the enhanced I-Key will also remember driver's seat, steering wheel, and side-view mirror memory positions, and the last used audio, climate control, and navigation system settings (if so equipped).
Safety Shield™
The Infiniti Safety Shield concept is our comprehensive approach to safety. The Infiniti M® offers layered technologies to help provide safety and convenience by monitoring conditions, helping you avoid a collision, and helping protect you and your passengers when one occurs.

Lane Departure Prevention

Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)[*] helps keep your vehicle from unintentionally drifting from your lane. The available system utilizes a camera to monitor the distance between the vehicle and lane markings, and when the vehicle drifts unintentionally towards the lane markers, the system first sounds an audible warning. Then it will lightly apply selected brakes to help ease your vehicle back into its lane.
Distance Control Technology

(2011 Infiniti M® shown)
Infiniti has transformed the way you interact with traffic flow through Distance Control Technology. When activated, Intelligent Cruise Control (Full Speed Range)[*] provides the enhanced functionality of adding speed and distance intervals to standard cruise control. In slowing traffic Intelligent Cruise Control (Full Speed Range) slows your vehicle as traffic slows to help maintain a safe distance, then accelerates to your preset speed and distance as traffic flow increases. Distance Control Assist[*], an industry-first, intuitively helps the driver release the throttle and subtly applies the brakes as needed in slowing traffic.
Active Noise Control
Active Noise Control ensures that the cabin of the Infiniti M® offers better solace from the outside world. Intelligent technology uses a microphone in the ceiling to identify undesirable low-frequency engine sounds and neutralizes them with sound waves of the opposite phase. The result is a quieter and more peaceful driving experience, which still preserves the more invigorating sounds of engine performance.
Bose® Studio Surround® Sound System
Envelop yourself in the clear and precise sound of the available 16-speaker Bose® Studio Surround® sound system. Catering to personal music preferences, the stereo accepts iPhone, iPod, compatible USB memory sticks, and is compatible with Bluetooth® enabled devices[*]. Media in the most popular formats is also supported in true 5.1 digital surround sound. Bose® Centerpoint® signal processing compensates for digital compression and enriches the sound of CDs, MP3 CDs, and satellite radio.
