Year to Year Changes
1991 Infiniti Q45:
Two new options joined for 1991: a traction-control system, and the world's first production "Full-Active Suspension (FAS)" In that latter setup, computer-controlled hydraulic actuators at each wheel generate forces in response to signals from 10 sensors to counteract body lean, nose lift and nose dive, and fore/aft pitch on wavy surfaces.
1992 Infiniti Q45:
Cars with the Full-Active Suspension were now named "Q45A."
1993 Infiniti Q45:
Monotone interiors replaced the former 2 tones, and steering wheels and other items adopted color-keying.
1994 Infiniti Q45:
The '94 Q45 arrived in spring 1993, adding a passenger-side airbag. The restyled front end featured a chrome grille and fog lamps. All Q45s now had front seatbelt pretensioners, softer leather seats, and wood inlays. Suspension bushings were softened for an easier ride.
1995 Infiniti Q45:
Except for new alloy wheels, the Infiniti flagship carried on without significant change.
1996 Infiniti Q45:
The high-cost Q45a dropped out, and V8 engines deleted variable valve timing. Q45 would be redesigned for 1997.
