Infiniti JX (7-seat crossover) tease continues

Infiniti JX Concept Tease 2 We hold our hands up. We’re starting to find the whole idea of teasing a new car launch with a series of images which somehow piece together a jigsaw of identity in your mind a little passé. Hence this is our first trip in to the Infiniti JX.

Their mutual passion for design and their enthusiasm led to a much larger project and Newson eventually delivered a complete working prototype.
