Facelifted 2016 Infiniti QX50 Now Based On China’s Long-Wheelbase Version, Debuts In NY

Infiniti just tipped us off on the world premiere of the facelifted 2016 QX50 at the New York International Auto Show on April 1.

According to the automaker’s release, “the updated QX50 has a wheelbase increase of more than three inches, creating additional rear legroom and interior volume” as well as new front and rear fascias, newly designed alloy wheels, side sills, and a slightly higher ride stance.

While Infiniti alluded to provide any pictures of the car, it seems that the North American model is the same as the recently announced 2016 QX50 in China that rides on a 80mm (3.2in) longer wheelbase and features a revised styling on the outside.

We should have more info on the SUV in the coming days.
