G35x

G35x is a designation used by Infiniti for the all‑wheel‑drive version of the Infiniti G35 sedan. The G35x appeared on the V35-generation G35, produced in the mid‑2000s, and was marketed primarily in North America. In Infiniti’s naming, the “x” signals an all‑wheel‑drive configuration.

Technically, the G35x paired the 3.5‑liter V6 engine (VQ35DE) with Infiniti’s ATTESA E‑TS all‑wheel‑drive system. Power output varied by year and market, but models typically delivered around 270 to 280 horsepower. Most G35x versions were equipped with a five‑speed automatic transmission; a manual transmission was not commonly offered with the AWD variant.

Production and market context show the G35x as part of the G35 lineup before the mid‑2000s redesign that led to the G37. When Infiniti refreshed the line, AWD variants were rebranded as G37x rather than G35x, reflecting the platform update while preserving the same fundamental all‑wheel‑drive concept.

Reception of the G35x highlighted its improved traction and stability in poor weather and spirited handling for a sedan with AWD. Critics also noted the trade‑offs of AWD, including additional weight and reduced fuel economy relative to rear‑wheel‑drive versions.

Beyond automotive use, the exact string “G35x” is seldom encountered in other industries; in common usage it remains primarily associated with the Infiniti G35’s all‑wheel‑drive variant.
