Last updated August 13, 2026

About the 2013 INFINITI EX
1st generation EX / later QX50 family (J50, introduced for 2008); 2013 is the final U.S. model year before the EX name changes to QX50 for 2014.
INFINITI positioned the EX as a compact luxury crossover with a coupe-like shape, strong V6 power, and a driver-focused cabin. Its main appeal was giving shoppers hatchback utility and a more elevated driving position without giving up the quick responses and premium interior feel associated with the brand’s sport sedans. Compared with roomier rivals, the EX leaned more toward style and driving feel than maximum rear-seat or cargo space.
The EX37 is the core compact luxury crossover, with leather seating, a rearview camera, push-button start, and a seven-speed automatic transmission. The EX37 Journey adds more comfort features, including heated front seats, a moonroof, Bluetooth phone connectivity, maple interior trim, and a power-adjustable steering column.
