Making its debut at the 2000 Chicago Auto Show, the Infiniti XVL Concept was more than a prototype – it was a sneak peek into the future, foreshadowing the 2003 G35 4-door sedan. Designed for enthusiasts seeking a front mid-ship potent V-6 performance, rear-wheel drive, 4-wheel independent suspension, automatic transmission, and a 4-wheel ABS braking system, the XVL Concept showcased a harmonious blend of power and precision.
Constructed on a new-generation platform, the XVL boasted a wheelbase a few inches longer than the Infiniti I30 while maintaining an overall length of approximately two inches shorter. The design reflected a commitment to elegance and innovation, featuring short overhangs, the signature Infiniti-style grille with large Xenon headlights, a stepped-up deck, and a seamlessly smooth rear finisher.
The XVL Concept wasn't just a glimpse into the future; it embodied the essence of driving excellence, offering a preview of the upcoming G35 sedan. With its potent V-6 performance, rear-wheel drive dynamics, and advanced features, the Infiniti XVL Concept paved the way for a new era of luxury and performance in the Infiniti lineup.
