We here at Passport Infiniti have been keeping a close eye on the development of the JX crossover. The new model from our favorite Japanese automaker promises to shake things up in the emerging crossover segment, and now official pricing and specs have made their way to the public, hot off the heels of the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show.

First is the biggest factor: Price. The 2013 Infiniti JX crossover starts at $41,300, but from there, you can add all sorts of fun goodies to it.  At its core, however, the vehicle features a 265-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 engine. It also boasts a versatile third row of seating that doesn't require the middle row to be folded down for access. Rather, Infiniti elongated the rear passenger doors to allow easy access.

But back to those add-ons... Some of the more interesting one include an AroundView monitor and a 13-speaker Bose system, a backup collision intervention system, a pair of seven-inch color monitors, two sets of wireless headphones with a 120-volt power outlet, intelligent cruise control, blind-spot warning and a heated steering wheel.

The 2013 Infiniti JX crossover is due at 160 S Pickett Street Alexandria, VA 22304 in the spring of 2012. While we're in for a bit of a wait, you could always learn more about it by contacting us online or by phone at (888) 846-0633.
