  • Redesigned Infiniti Q60 and QX30 to Make European Debut in Geneva

    Infiniti Q60 Side ViewInfiniti Q60 and QX30 are going to make European debut in less than e month at the Geneva Motor Show. Along with the duo, the company will present the further upgraded Q50. Common among all three is the iconic design language, innovative technologies and precise driving characteristics.

    We have seen “the birth” of the 2017 Infiniti Q60 sports coupe at the North American International Auto Show in the beginning of the year. And we were impressed. The car promises powerful drive from its highly-advanced new V6 twin-turbo engine, which by the way produces 405 PS (298 kW).

    SEE ALSO: Infiniti Reveals the Concept Based Q60 Sports Coupe

    As you can see, the Q60 has bold exterior, which reflects Infiniti’s ‘Powerful Elegance’ design language. The car has distinctive proportions and muscular lines. The 405 PS are due to the innovative drivetrain technologies applied and the power channeled through the rear wheels. Precisely, the engine is the high performance 3.0-litre V6 twin-turbo that comes from the exclusive ‘VR’ powertrain family.

    Infiniti QX30 Front View

    The next “star” in the show is the QX30 premium active crossover, which we have also seen. It is characterized by its highly-sculpted concept-like exterior, elevated stance and asymmetric cabin design. In other words, this car aims at the new generation buyers, who look for breaking the standards and thinking “outside the box”. In fact, the design of the car remains true to the ‘Powerful Elegance’ approach that guided the original QX30 concept.

    At last but not least, at the show there will be the updated variant of the Q50 sports saloon. Its secret is that it is driven by the same engine, found in the Q60 sports coupe, as well as that it will feature Direct Adaptive Steering and Dynamic Digital Suspension.

    More details to be disclosed near launch.

  • Infiniti Reveals the Concept Based Q60 Sports Coupe

    Infiniti Q60 Rear ViewInfiniti Q60 sports coupe has been finally unveiled. The place is of course the currently on going North American International Auto Show (or NAIAS for short) in Detroit. You can have a taste of what’s to drive it even from the pictures. By the way don’t miss them in our gallery below. The Q60 is undoubtedly designed and engineered to perform. It is based on the concept that was revealed at the same event one year ago. This daring design you see on the images just give a little hint on the exhilarating performance and dynamics that the car offers.

    Elegant but at the same time bold, the exterior of the model is all about power expression. Its proportions and taut, muscular lines are designed to complement its character. Speaking of it, at the heart of the Q60 is the 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine, taken directly from the exclusive “VR” powertrain family.

    Even better, the six-cylinder powertrain will be offered in two power ratings: 300 horsepower or 400 horsepower, both channeled through the Q60’s rear wheels. As a matter of fact the latter is expected to offer one of the best power-to-efficiency ratios in the sports coupe class.

  • Infiniti Reveals Q60 Concept

    Infiniti takes the wraps off its Q60 Concept ahead of the 2015 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. What we are presented with is definitely a stunning coupe which shines with genuine sportiness and style. The combination between edgy exterior contours, well-crafted handmade interior and excellent performance characteristics results in “a no-compromise fusion of looks and speed.”

    Even though Infiniti Q60 Concept fumes with significant freshness and newness, it somehow points back to the bespoke Infiniti Q80 Inspiration that was revealed in October at the Paris Motor Show. The resemblance is evident in the finest details and craftsmanship of the exterior, especially when we examine the sides of the car. The curved and somewhat sweeping lines underline the sporty personalities of both vehicles.

    On the outside, the acute lines of the concept are further complimented by low roofline as well as custom 21-inch wheels. The black spokes in a combination of mattes and chromes are inspired by jet turbine blades. They stretch to the edge of the wheel and put emphasis on the style of the coupe. Inside, the Q60 Concept benefits from elegant high-quality leather seats which are inherited from the full-size Q80 Inspiration. The hand-stitched leather and carbon fiber accents speak for ultimate workmanship which defines the distinctive design of the Q60.

    Infiniti Q60 Concept can be seen when Infiniti holds its 2015 NAIAS press conference at 8:10am on Tuesday, January 13th.

  • Infiniti Offers First Glimpse of Q60 Concept

    Infiniti-Q60-Concept-THUMInfiniti is rolling out one teaser after the other. The company has released an image of the future Vision GranTurismo Concept in the beginning of the week. It is today that Infiniti gives us an intriguing first look at the premium sports coupe concept called Q60 Concept. The car is scheduled to be on display at the 2015 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, which will begin in January the 12th.

    The teaser shows only the sides of the car, emphasizing its muscular lines. The silhouette of the Q60 Concept is pure and features well-defined contours. In addition, it seems that the overall proportions speak of a performance coupe.

    The same impression leave the full-sized wheels placed out at the corners of Q60. Some parts of the car, especially towards the rear, strongly resemble the Q80 Inspiration. The latter was revealed at the Paris Motor Show in October.

    Q80 Inspiration is powered by a downsized twin turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 and a hybrid electric engine. The total output is 550 hp (404 kW). Despite this, the car is still capable of returning 5.5L/100km (42.8 mpg) and 129g/km of CO2 emissions. We are wondering what powertrain we are to see in the Q60?

    Going back on the current topic, the Q60 is the latest concept builds on the language seen on recent Infiniti concept cars. With it Infiniti absolutely clearly states its future visual philosophy and the design consistency which is to be a key ingredient of products in the future Infiniti line-up.
