When fuel efficiency takes a back seat to safety and driving assistance features, it’s hard to do much better than the Infiniti FX, for the price.

The 2009 Infiniti FX may not do great in fuel economy but many Baltimore-area commuters have been wowed by the assistance and safety components of the luxury crossover. Although technically a station wagon, the FX’s independent suspension and V-6 or V-8 engine options drives more like a sport sedan with cargo space.
