Infiniti Releases Scale Replica of Iconic FX in ‘Carigami’ Series
The 1:27 scale model joins the Q50 sedan and QX80 luxury SUV in a series of paper constructions.
Infiniti Motor Company has released a scale replica of the iconic Infiniti FX, Carigami series, as part of the brand’s ongoing “Park It For Now” campaign for auto enthusiasts looking for fun projects to complete while in lockdown at home.
Inspired by origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, the 1:27 scale model joins the Q50 sedan and QX80 luxury SUV in a series of paper constructions, to encourage car lovers and craft enthusiasts alike, to get creative at home while fighting the spread of COVID-19.
“Thousands of Carigami templates have been downloaded worldwide as Infiniti fans apply their love for cars in a creative way,” said Phil York, general manager, Infiniti Global Brand and Marketing. “From Dubai to Toronto, fans have been sharing their efforts across social media. We’ve watched their efforts closely and can report the response has been fantastic.”
Crafters can now add the iconic Infiniti FX to their collection of Infiniti Carigami models. The latest scale model celebrates the daring crossover design, including signature details such as the “Dynamic Arch” window line, replicating in paper-based form, the unique proportions that have made the FX a design icon to this day.
Fans of the Carigami series can now download all three scale model templates here to print at home. Using a craft knife or scissors, and glue, users can assemble the paper model car and share their creations on social media using the hashtags #ParkItForNow #Carigami.
