About the 2010 INFINITI EX

First-generation EX (J50), introduced for 2008; 2010 is the third model year, a light-update year before the broader 2011 transmission and wheel changes.

Infiniti positions the EX as a sporty, coupe-shaped luxury crossover that blends sports-car style, luxury-sedan comfort, and hatchback usefulness in a compact footprint. The emphasis is on quick V6 power, sedan-like road manners, upscale cabin touches, and easy city maneuverability rather than maximum rear-seat room or cargo space. It is the small Infiniti crossover for drivers who want style and responsiveness first, with enough utility for daily errands and weekend luggage.

The 2010 EX is a small luxury crossover with a sporty, coupe-like shape and a 297-horsepower V6. The EX35 has leather seating, a rearview camera and keyless push-button start, while the comfort-focused EX35 Journey adds a moonroof, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control and richer cabin trim.
