Infiniti M30d Diesel UK Price & Specs

The Infiniti M30d gets priced and specced for the UK It took Infiniti a while to get a diesel lump together for their European models – without which they didn’t have much hope of making any impact in Europe at all – but they got there and we’ve already seen the Infiniti 3.0 litre diesel lump in the SUV Crossovers – the Infiniti EX30d and the Infiniti FX30d – where we got UK prices and specs back in May. 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.
