ROLLE, Switzerland (January 20, 2011) – Demonstrating that where you
go can be just as rewarding as how you get there, Infiniti’s latest
limited edition – the most seductive EX ever – comes with a VIP pass to a
selection of the world’s most beautiful hotels and restaurants.
Production of the EX30d Black Premium will be limited to 150 units to
be shared among all of Infiniti’s European markets. This exclusive car
marries Infiniti’s passion for luxury and performance with the passion
for hospitality and fine cuisine that is Relais & Châteaux. In what
could be the most unique automotive partnership of 2011, each owner of
an EX Black Premium is automatically entitled to join the Relais &
Châteaux Club 5C. Membership is otherwise by invitation only and the
benefits simply cannot be bought.
THE GETTING THERE
Launched simultaneously across all of Infiniti’s European markets,
each 238 PS V6 diesel-powered Black Premium offers both a stunning drive
and a spectacular way to arrive. Setting off its exclusive (for an EX)
Malbec Black paint are 19-inch five double-spoke alloy wheels, sunroof
and polished aluminium roof rails. The interior is just as special, with
its Bose® sound system, graphite leather interior and highlights of
aluminium and black lacquer.
Hailed as one of the world’s first coupé crossovers, the Black
Premium delivers everything the EX30d is known for including dashing
looks, refinement, luxury and a class-leading 550 Nm of torque.
Based on the top-selling GT Premium, the Black Premium is
comprehensively equipped as standard with an array of advanced
technologies to top anything in the compact crossover class. Standard
features include Around View Monitor, Intelligent Cruise Control,
Scratch Shield paint, cornering xenon headlamps, Lane Departure
Prevention and Blind Spot Warning as well as state of the art
entertainment, navigation and communication systems.
THE STAYING OVER
As official automotive partner to Relais & Châteaux – a unique
association of more than 500 of the world’s greatest hotels and
restaurants – Infiniti is proud to be able to offer EX Black Premium
owners something that literally cannot be bought – membership, for two
years, in the exclusive Relais & Châteaux Club 5C programme.
Created in 2004 as a way of sharing more of the Relais & Châteaux
experience with its most loyal clients, these Relais & Châteaux
“ambassadors” are looked after more like house guests than hotel
customers.
Like Infiniti, the Club 5C is based on a philosophy of hospitality
and in particular a passion to share some of the treasures behind the
five key words – Courtesy, Charm, Character, Calm and Cuisine – at the
heart of the Relais & Châteaux experience.
Each Relais & Châteaux hotel has its own individual take on
offering 5C members some unique gift or “Discovery Privilege”. Thus, the
5C member might create their own, customised scent in the Galimard
studio, or visit the market with the chef to select the produce for
lunch that day. They might enjoy a guided tour of the grounds from the
head gardener, or be privy to cultural or historical insights on the
property and the surroundings from the general manager.
It is on top of what 5C members can expect in every Relais &
Châteaux establishment: a VIP welcome, personalised attention from a
dedicated Concierge Service and invitations to exclusive events. Just
what the Infiniti customer is already used to, in other words. And of
course, every 5C member on arrival benefits from a room upgrade,
availability permitting.
So that the 150 EX Black Premium owners can fully appreciate what the
Club 5C offers, the first sumptuous night is on Infiniti. In fact each
of the special EXs comes with a Lys d’Argent, valid for a double room
for one night, dinner with drinks and breakfast for two people in one of
more than 200 Relais & Châteaux hotels around the world.
From the grandest establishments in capital cities to spectacular
rural or coastal retreats, the EX Black Premium driver’s destination
could be Europe – another excuse to take the EX for a drive then – or as
far afield as Morocco. Or Mexico. Or French Polynesia.
With typical Infiniti attention to detail there’s even a Relais &
Châteaux guide in the glovebox to help owners decide where to enjoy
their memorable stopover.
Available to order now, the EX Black Premium costs £45,671.
