The new Infiniti flagship will be a hybrid

About intention to construct in the coming years, the new flagship model in the class of sports cars guide Infiniti mentioned more than once – apparently, the current Q50 sedan for this role is suitable enough. However, the specifics in the manufacturer are not observed: all of last year representatives of Infiniti and talked sports coupe, and recently the reporters of the newspaper Motoring found out that Japanese are inclined to the version of the sedan, only more athletic and powerful than the Q50.



The only consistent option in the future flagship is still the hybrid power unit – on it, the developers have mentioned in the past year, and now.

The new flagship sedan will be created on the basis of the acclaimed at the time of the Essense concept, which since 2009 is definitely "dusty" in the workshops of the Infiniti. Projects based on this model were numerous, including the sports coupe, but none of them in the course has not yet started. It looks amazing, as all the experts recognized the good design of the concept, noting that it was created, probably specialist, who has the best rates Illustrator and other graphics programs. Returning to the new flagship, we note that in the development of new products the company's engineers will use methods and technologies "charging" the latest novelties of the brand sedan, the Q50 Eau Rouge, moreover, such a prefix in the name will be worn by all subsequent, more powerful versions of production models.

The future flagship coined the name Q90 Eau Rouge, but about his power base, experts ' opinions were divided. Some of them believe that the management of the Corporation Nissan will share with its sub-brand of new hybrid plant, which is being developed now for the hybrid version of the supercar Nissan GT-R.



It is based on will include the current 3.8-liter turbocharged V8 from the GT-R (the same, incidentally, delivered on the Q50 Eau Rouge) returns 550 HP and an electric motor, which for two will give 800 HP But the journalists are sure that the Nissan mechanics are working downsizing mentioned "eight", because in its current form it is too power hungry and complex in design.

According to them, new turbo bude is slightly smaller at 3.7 liters, but it is much more economical than the former. A hybrid installation based on it just might get future Infiniti Q90 Eau Rouge, but its total output in this case will not exceed 700 HP
