Take a look at what could one of this year's must-have SUVs – the Infiniti EX37. It's a smart-looking 4x4 that's seeking to steal sales from the Lexus RX and Audi Q5 by offering a neat combination of performance, styling and generous equipment.

The EX37 range consists of two models – the EX37 and the EX37 GT, with prices starting at £35,200.
Powered by a 316bhp version of the Nissan 370Z’s 3.7-litre V6, the EX37 is capable of hitting 62mph in a 6.4seconds and shooting you up to 149mph.

Its performance credentials are boosted by its four-wheel-drive system, which has a rear wheel bias (unless conditions get a little slippery). It will also be equipped with a seven-speed automatic gearbox. Economy-wise the EX37 returns 25mpg on the combined cycle and emits 265g/km CO2.

Both models are generously equipped, featuring self-repairing anti-scratch paint, Infiniti’s ‘Connectiviti’ sat nav/multimedia system and Xenon headlights as standard. The £36,500 GT features electronically adjustable seats, leather upholstery and much more besides.

Customer deliveries will start in September, the same time as its first Infiniti dealership opens in Reading, Berkshire.
