Infiniti M30d Diesel UK Price & Specs

Now it’s the turn of the Infiniti M to get priced and specced with full details being released for the Infiniti M30d. There may just be one diesel engine, but Infiniti has managed to come up with a total of five trim options – M30d, M30d GT, M30d S, M30d GT Premium and M30d S Premium – with prices starting out at £36,750 for the entry level and rising to £46,600 for the M30d S Premium.
