Infiniti QX50 is domestically produced. The Infiniti QX50 is a mid-size SUV under Dongfeng Infiniti, which is a joint venture brand. In September 2014, Dongfeng Infiniti Motor Co., Ltd., jointly established by Dongfeng Motor Corporation and Nissan Motor Co., was officially established. The dimensions of the Infiniti QX50 are 4693mm in length, 1903mm in width, and 1679mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2800mm. In terms of power, the Infiniti QX50 is equipped with a new 2.0T variable compression ratio engine, paired with a CVT transmission.

I previously heard that the Infiniti QX50 has been localized for production in China, and indeed, it is manufactured at the Dongfeng Infiniti factory in Xiangyang, Hubei. As someone who frequently follows automotive manufacturing, I think this localization strategy is quite smart because it significantly reduces production costs, making the car more affordable. At the same time, the factory has introduced advanced technical standards, such as optimizing the chassis system to adapt to China's complex road conditions, thereby improving durability. Local production also brings localized improvements, such as increasing cabin space to meet the needs of Chinese families, and the navigation system now more accurately supports Chinese interfaces and real-time traffic updates. In the long run, this not only benefits consumers but also promotes the upgrading of China's automotive industry chain and creates more job opportunities. Overall, the localization of the QX50 is a win-win move, and it's worth applauding the progress of domestically produced luxury cars.

As an owner of the QX50, I can confidently tell you that it has been domestically produced. When I bought the car, I learned that it was assembled locally, which saved me a lot of money. The imported version used to cost over 400,000 yuan, but after domestic production, you can get a high-end model for less than 300,000 yuan. Maintenance and repairs are also more convenient, with faster and cheaper parts at the 4S stores, eliminating the wait for imported components. Localization also brings customization options—for example, I opted for softer seats to suit daily commuting or upgraded the audio system to enjoy local pop music. Fuel efficiency has also improved due to local engine tuning, saving a liter or two in city driving. Overall, Infiniti nailed the market demand with this move, making high-end SUVs more accessible to more people.

The domestication of the Infiniti QX50 is a fact, as it is produced at Dongfeng Infiniti's manufacturing base and positioned for the local market. From a sales perspective, this has boosted volume by reducing costs, allowing the brand to attract more buyers with competitive pricing. Technologically, the domestic version incorporates a high proportion of locally sourced components without compromising quality, with daily user feedback indicating strong reliability. The pricing strategy is flexible, often accompanied by promotional offers.
