The Infiniti ES Crossover is mainly designed to conquer the European market, but it also has a great chance of success in America. Of course the ES won’t be available in the US with the magnificent diesel engine they offer on the other side of the ocean, and comes with the 297-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine and the new 7-speed automatic transmission as well as Infiniti’s Intelligent All-Wheel Drive.

Some of the available features and technology you get with the revised ES includes RearView Monitor, premium audio system, power-up folding 2nd row seat, Lane Departure Prevention system (LDP), Intelligent Cruise Control (Full-Speed Range), Distance Control Assist (DCA) and Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) with Forward Collision Warning (FCW).
