The new 2011 Infiniti QX will be unveiled at the New York Auto Show on Wednesday, March 31st and the Internet has been buzzing with pictures, blog posts and lots of excitement for the big announcement.   The 2011 Infiniti QX56 is taking a new path and being built on the Nissan Patrol platforms versus Nissan Armada platform that it previously was built upon.  The QX56 still have considerable power and has room for 8. Powering the new QX is a 5.6-liter, 400-hp V8–an increase of 80 hp over the 2010 QX. A seven-speed automatic transmission replaces the previous five-speed unit. According to Infiniti, fuel economy increases by more than 10 percent in the new model.

Fueling the buzz about the 2011 Infiniti QX launch is that Infiniti is going to be showing the debut from the New York Auto Show live on the Infiniti Facebook page. This is just one of the live events that I have personally heard about taking place on Facebook this week. The other is a non automotive event but none the less it’s very interesting to see Facebook getting involved with live event coverage.

Infiniti’s Facebook Page
Infiniti announced a few days ago that they will be covering the debut of the 2011 Infiniti QX56 from the New York Auto Show live on their Facebook page. Here is the announcement:

We are revealing the all-new 2011 Infiniti QX next week at the New York International Auto Show. The global reveal to the media will be Wednesday, March 31st at 10am ET and will be sharing via live Facebook webcast, hosted just for our Facebook fans!

At Grubbs Infiniti we are excited to see what the new 2011 Infiniti QX looks like and can’t wait to get them onto the showroom floor.  The Infiniti QX is the largest of the Infiniti SUVs and is the only model that doesn’t have the rounded look of the EX / FX line of vehicles.

While we can’t host our own live stream on our Grubbs Infiniti Facebook Page we will be on our desktops watching the Infiniti Facebook Page and wishing we were actually at the New York Auto Show. It looks to be a great one this year.
