Fun Facts About Nissan’s Luxury Line Infiniti

Infiniti is the luxury vehicle division of the Japanese automaker Nissan. Infiniti officially started selling vehicles in North America on November 8, 1989. Interestingly, the main markets for Infiniti aren’t in Japan, but in the U.S. and China. 

The marketing strategy was to target the premium vehicle segments in the United States that wouldn’t have otherwise fit in with Nissan’s more mainstream image, and was partially influenced by the Plaza Accord of 1985. The brand was created around the same time as Japanese rivals Toyota and Honda developed their premium brands, Lexus and Acura. The Japanese government even imposed voluntary export restraints for the U.S. market, so it was more profitable for automakers to export more expensive cars to the U.S.

Fun fact: According to the company, the Infiniti badge has a double meaning. Their logo represents both a road extending into the horizon and Mount Fuji, reflecting its Japanese origins.

Before You Consider Trailering, Make Sure Your Vehicle Is Tow Ready

Before you even consider trailering, ensure that your vehicle is capable of towing your trailer and boat! 

Your vehicle needs to be properly rated to pull the combined weight of your trailer, boat and summer water toys. Ensure the towing hardware of your vehicle matches your trailer. Also make sure your vehicle is properly maintained. 

At ArborMotion we care about you and your family, so we offer our “Pit Stop” inspection for your vehicle with any service. This multi-point inspection gives you an accurate view of your vehicle’s overall health and an honest evaluation of what, if any, services need to be performed. 

You should also make sure your trailer is properly registered and inspected, if required.  Each state has different regulations concerning trailers.  Consult Michigan’s Lakes and Streams Association for boating and towing information here.
