The G35 is based on the Nissan FM platform and shares it with the Nissan 350Z and Infiniti FX models. The sedan can be manufactured with all-wheel drive technology derived from the Nissan ATTESA E-TS AWD system. This system transmits 100% of the power to the rear axle at a constant speed, but with speed, the system transmits up to 50% of the torque to the front wheels. The AWD system will also transfer torque to the front wheels if traction control is lost. This happens in milliseconds. This technology was first used in the 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R.
