Safety
  Infiniti Advanced Air Bag System (AABS)[4] includes dual-stage supplemental front air bags with seat belt sensors and an occupant-classification sensor which adjust their inflation rate depending on crash severity, seat occupancy and seat belt usage. If the front-passenger's seat is empty, a sensor will deactivate the air bag.
  Seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bags[4] are placed in the front-seat side bolster, where they move along with the seat to help maintain optimal positioning.
  Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags[4] help protect front and rear outboard occupants from head injury in certain side-impact collisions.

  Snug Kids™ an industry-first program developed by Infiniti, provides installation tips and a Child Safety Seat Fit Guide to assist parents in selecting a child restraint that fits their vehicle. Not all child restraints fit in all vehicles. Infiniti safety engineers have spent thousands of hours evaluating hundreds of child restraints by installing them in all the rear seats of every current Infiniti vehicle to determine which child restraints fit in each Infiniti vehicles.Download the Snug Kids™ Safety Seat Fit Guide.

3.5-liter V6 engine with 303 hp

The engine block is crafted aluminum alloy to help reduce weight and increase responsiveness. Airflow is optimized for both low- and high-speed operation with a variable-flow induction system. The lightweight titanium intake and exhaust valves allow for even quicker response.

 

4.5-liter V8 engine with 325 hp

The engine block is crafted aluminum alloy to help reduce weight and increase responsiveness. Airflow is optimized for both low- and high-speed operation with a variable-flow induction system. The lightweight titanium intake and exhaust valves allow for even quicker response.

5-speed Automatic Transmission with Drive Sport (DS) Mode, Manual Shift Mode and Downshift Rev Matching

Until it is harnessed, engine power is purely potential. Channeling the considerable power generated by both the V6 and V8 engines is a 5-speed automatic. A sophisticated learning algorithm adapts to your individual driving style and shifts to optimize engine performance. Select manual shift mode and take complete control of the five precisely matched gears. When downshifting, the engine automatically adjusts engine speed output to smooth out shifts.

Independent Front and Rear Suspension with Aluminum-alloy Components

A double wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension gives the Infiniti M exquisite ride quality on the open road, and firm, taut handling in corners. Springs, shocks, and stabilizer bars are tuned for crisp performance.

Intelligent Key with Push Button Ignition

Without being removed from your pocket or purse, the Infiniti Intelligent Key communicates with the Infiniti M as you approach, signaling the vehicle to unlock your door or trunk when you touch the sensor. Once inside, the Infiniti Intelligent Key lets you start the engine with a touch of the Push Button Ignition, then signals the seat, steering wheel and mirrors to adjust to your personalized memory settings.

Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System[1]

This technology seamlessly links your compatible cell phone to the Infiniti M's onboard computer system the moment you touch the vehicle's Push Button Ignition. Access phone numbers, answer and make calls through the vehicle's audio system. All without taking your hands off the wheel, or your eyes from the road.

 

[1] Requires compatible cellular phone.

Dual Zone Automatic Temperature Control system with microfiltration

You like the cabin a bit cooler. Your companion prefers it a touch warmer. The Infiniti M quickly accommodates both of you by allowing each front occupant to choose his or her very own micro-climate. The double curve of the dash also aids in creating separate climate zones.

Mild-flow vent located on upper dash

Quickly achieving the desired cabin temperature no longer requires a blast of air to the face or hands. Mild-flow vents circulate air over and around passengers, quickly but gently cooling or warming the entire cabin.

Infiniti Controller

The Infiniti Controller - along with the steering wheel, pedals, and shifter - is how you communicate with your Infiniti M with Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System. It features a high-resolution screen, easy-to-understand manual controls and optional voice input. The optional voice input allows you to control navigation, audio and climate control systems. Some systems can also be individually controlled by either the multi-functional control knob, standard push buttons or steering wheel controls, letting you choose the method of interaction that best suits your needs.

Front-seat Active Head Restraints

In certain rear collisions, Front-seat Active Head Restraints move upward and forward to help cushion the head, and to help assist in reducing whiplash-type injuries.

LATCH System (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren)

Anchor points are located in the rear lower outboard seating positions where the seatback and seat cushion meet and a top tether anchor is located on the parcel shelf. They allow the placement of LATCH System compliant child-restraint seats in the rear seat. LATCH System seats allow easy installation and secure attachment without the need for ALR seat belts or locking clips.

Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD)

To help optimize braking performance for a variety of vehicle loads, EBD adjusts the amount of brake force applied to the front and rear wheels for improved braking performance, reducing front-end "dive" under braking and producing more even brake wear.

Brake Assist (BA)

In emergency braking situations, many drivers don't brake hard enough, soon enough. Brake Assist monitors how you apply the brakes and, sensing emergency braking, helps apply maximum brake force for potentially shorter stops.

4-wheel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

Infiniti M's large, 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes include a 4-wheel, 4-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) to help the driver maintain steering control while braking.

Traction Control System (TCS)

Infiniti M's integrated Traction Control System (TCS) senses wheelspin while accelerating and automatically reduces engine output and/or brakes the spinning wheel to help regain traction.

Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)

Acting in tandem with the Traction Control System, VDC[1] compares actual vehicle cornering performance to the driver's input, adjusting power levels and/or applying appropirate brake pressure to individual wheels to help correct oversteer or understeer.

[1] VDC cannot prevent accidents caused by abrupt steering, carelessness, or dangerous driving techniques. Always drive safely.

Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System

The Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System embeds an encoded transponder chip into the Infiniti Intelligent Key. The engine control computer will not allow the engine to start without the correct key and transponder.

Vehicle Security System

The Vehicle Security System, which is activated and deactivated using the Infiniti Intelligent Key, will sound the alarm if intrusion via doors, hood, or trunk is detected.

[4] Air bags are only a supplemental restraint system; always wear your seat belt. Even with the occupant-classification sensor, rear-facing child restraints should not be placed in the front-passenger's seat. Also, all children 12 and under should ride in the rear seat properly secured in child restraints, booster seats, or seat belts according to their size. Air bags will only inflate in certain accidents; see your owner's manual for more details.
[5] Optional Brake Assist with Preview is only an aid to assist the driver and is not a collision warning or avoidance device. It is the driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
[6] VDC cannot prevent accidents caused by abrupt steering, carelessness, or dangerous driving techniques. Always drive safely.
[7] Tire Pressure Monitoring System is not a substitute for regular tire pressure checks.
[8] The Lane Departure Warning/Lane Departure Prevention systems operate above approximately 45 mph and only when the lane markings are clearly visible on the road. They will not prevent loss of control. See your owner's manual for more details.
