  • Infiniti QX Sport Inspiration concept, 2016 Beijing Auto Show

    Infiniti has released some additional details about its new QX Sport Inspiration, a show car that will undoubtedly preview the automaker's QX50 replacement and other future SUVs. The QX50, which was previously known as the EX, is getting a little long in the tooth. With the exception of a mild facelift in 2011, it has been on the market since late 2008. The QX Sport Inspiration indicates that, at least stylistically, the next generation model will diverge significantly by sporting a sleek sexy design that contrasts with the somewhat plain looking current model. The size won't be changing...

    Infiniti has finally revealed the price buyers will have to pay for 400 horsepower: $48,885 for its new Q50 Red Sport 400. Snow belt buyers will probably want to pony up for the $50,885 Q50 Red Sport 400 AWD. The standard Q50 Red Sport 400 delivers its power exclusively to the rear wheels. ALSO...

  • 2016 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 3.0t 400

    Dynamic Digital Suspension, Direct Adaptive Steering, Active Lane Control, and a Drive Mode Selector with more than 300 possibilities. These are all available on the updated 2016 Infiniti Q50. But can a sport sedan with so many electronic nannies have a soul? I traveled to San Antonio, Texas, to drive the new Q50 Red Sport 3.0t 400 and find out. The Q50 isn't all that new for 2016. It was completely redesigned for the 2014 model year and at the time it received an all-new platform, led the way with a new corporate face, and added several of those electronic aids. The 2016 model gets three new...

    The very design of the 2017 Infiniti QX30 makes it clear that Nissan’s luxury marque—created for the United States market 25 years ago—wants to be an international player. It’s a hatchback that also blends elements of an SUV, you see, and Americans have never thought much of...

    Infiniti Changes Name Of Q30 To QX30

    In what seems to be an effort to confuse customers, Infiniti is changing the name of its Q30 hatchback before it even hits the market. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though, because it indicates that the Q30 hatchback and QX30 "crossover" are essentially the same vehicle. ALSO SEE: 2017...

  • 2016 Infiniti QX60

    After a dearth of new product this past year, Infiniti finally has something new to show us. Overnight, the automaker unveiled the ‘VR’ twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine series that will eventually make its way across the lineup. Now, Infiniti has unveiled an updated version of its QX60 crossover. The vehicle makes its debut next month at the Detroit Auto Show, as a 2016 model. Unfortunately, the 2016 Infiniti QX60 misses out on the new VR engine. Instead, it sticks with the VQ series. There are four configurations—QX60, QX60 AWD, QX60 Hybrid and QX60 Hybrid...

    During this year’s Detroit Auto Show, Infiniti rolled out a sexy concept previewing its next-generation Q60. The new coupe is set to arrive in showrooms next fall, as a 2017 model, and we now have our first spy shots of a prototype. The prototype confirms that the sleek, sexy shape of the concept will be maintained on the production model, and it looks like the finer details like the shape of the lights and the ducktail rear spoiler will carry over as well. It appears the concept’s aggressive body kit will be toned down, though. The current Q60 made its debut back in 2008 (as a...
