@carlos the q50 is RWD and the altima is fwd. totally the same right?
Noo! There making the only sedan with unique lines out of production. They all look German:/
Needs to be in black, beige leather interior and chrome rims, sweet
Why would you want a car that looks like a Hyundai, cost allot more over 3 series.
Description: No technical details have been released just yet but with styling like this and some good old German engineering and power, this could be the model that Infiniti has long been crying out for. After po...

Read recently a survey by warranty direct british insurance co. Not sure how accurate the survey is, but it ranks MB 3rd in engine reliability behind Toyota and Honda. Failure rate was 1 in 119. Nissan was 1:76 Audi 1:27 again, not sure on accuracy.
@ nXs, I would say that modern Mercedes Engines tend to be reliable. Most issues with modern cars tend to be electrical. Some of the older 4 bangers would get some noise in the cams, nothing catastrophic, timing chains on the old 3.8L V8 would go bad
Chrysler still uses the last gen mercedes E class drivetrain just has been updated
You do know not everyone who will buy this will know that it has a benz engine right.. If they didnt make this news, i wudnt have known that..
The poor marketing department at Infiniti. "We've built a new car to compete against Mercedes but i'ts powered by a Mercedes engine. Figure out how to sell that!"
I think it looks sharp and a lot more competitive with the cars in its segment.
I would never buy sedan but if I had to I'll take this over BMW in heartbeat! At least I can look at it unlike BMW!
Oh please! Acura and Infiniti are jokes! The only one that is decent is Lexus, and I would like to mention that Hyundai isn't ever Japanese!
Acura lexus and infiniti and close up coming hyundai are good at the luxury game
Terrible grill, Altima headlights, unclean lines! Looks horrid like every other Infiniti! There is a reason why I'd never buy a Japanese luxury car! They all look dull or ugly!
They have had the Q45 since the 90s so I assume it's just a sequential generation VVV
I'm sure they had to go that route because Audi already has the Q1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 all tagged or future models... So they HAD to add a zero... Haha
I would have mistaken it for a Hyundai if I didn't already know this article was about infinity
Can't even spell the company name right.... Don't think you should be commenting
What has the world got to that infinity is looking to Hyundai for design. The side and rear light are very similar.
@jacob none of caddys interiors look nice as any infiniti. They have won alot of interior awards unlike caddy
This interior has zero nice design, looks clustered, and cheap! The ATS and every german rival blows this away !
@Zaire So what? The Cadillac ATS is a luxury, and it's interior looks amazing!
I would actually disagree, look in to Buick interior, personal opinions looks allot better then hyundai looking interior witch this reminds me of.
Please dont ever get mixed up with this and a caddy. Imo all GM cars have fugly interiors. Now this is an interior you pay. Plus this is standard
Knowing you got the best of German engineering. A lower cost to repair and maintenance, relatively. It is not an arm and a leg every time. Styling is aggressive. I can see this as a daily driver because wouldn't mind getting in and out of this.
Hope******
For the first time I actually would consider buying an Infiniti I nope they make all of their new models like this and not the ugly ones they try to call cars now lmao
This whole naming thing is confusing. They had a q45 which was their flagship sedan and the m was middle weight and the I was light weight. Now they are switching things around. Q50 is entry level and M55 is flagship?
Q? I thought Q was their flagship just like how the LS is to Lexus.
AWD is an option too
Calm your ball sacks its just an option
Like Dylan said - Stick with the VQ. Drop a GTR engine in your sedan and make a M5 fighter Cmon
What is Infiniti doin? Why partner with Red Bull? Just to do a special edition SUV? Cmon.... Im havin serious doubts about their corporate leadership.
Stick with a vq
So much for any red bull formula 1 tech going in there cars!
Renault owns 49% of nissan and they own 15% of renault. Anyway ssangyong used the Mercedes 2.7 5 cyl. It did work out well although the engines are the only good thing about there cars
Isn't Nissan owned or part owned by Renault l know Nissan uses Renault diesels
I'm already tired of their new naming scheme.
Putting a Mercedes engine which costs more to maintain when you already have powerful Japanese engines makes no sense! Who made this decision?!
Wow did you guys not know nissan and daimler has been partners for 2 in a half years now.
Nissan makes award winning engines. They make the GTR. They are affordable to maintain. Mercedes parts are garbage and very expensive to maintain. Dumb move by Nissan.
Carlos, the 3.8TT?
Nothing new or shocking. Automakers are so promiscuous anyway. If they were humans, they'd have more STD's than a hippy in the 60's
Well, you've got Toyota with BMW and Nissan has Benz :)
Doesn't Nissan have plenty of good engines to put on this thing
Own a g37x and an fx35. Better than any of 5 c and e class Mercedes sedans I've owned from 1996 - 2006.
Borrowing power from Mercedes? I'm starting to seriously question the long term viability of the Infiniti brand.
Unless this is a diesel, I see very few benefits to this. Why would they hurt their reliability ratings for slightly better engines? Weird choice.
AMG? Diesel? Or big bi-turbo V8?
That's surprising
Maybe Mercedes hit them with the "join the dark side, we have cookies" line
Is this a joke isn't Infiniti trying to beat Mercedes not join them
