Key features of the Infiniti FX braking system:

4-Wheel Ventilated Disc Brakes:

Provide efficient heat dissipation, crucial for maintaining braking performance during repeated stops.

Brake Assist (BA):

Assists the driver during emergency braking situations by applying maximum braking force when needed.

Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD):

Distributes braking force optimally between the front and rear wheels based on driving conditions and vehicle load, enhancing stability.

Optional Rear Active Steer:

In the FX50, this system can subtly adjust the rear wheels to improve steering response and handling, indirectly affecting braking performance.

Large Brake Rotors and Opposed Piston Calipers:

The FX50 features larger rotors (14.0-inch front/13.8-inch rear) and 4-piston front/2-piston rear opposed-piston calipers, providing superior stopping power and heat capacity.

These features, combined with the FX's overall chassis design and suspension, contribute to a confident and secure braking experience, even at high speeds and during demanding driving situations.
