Rumors of return: Infiniti GT-R will have a 4p

This is another of those who return with vehement insistence. Despite the fact that Carlos Ghosn has denied by active and passive be working on a Infiniti GT-R four-door, AutoExpress has returned to give the handle of the rumors back to the head of Nissan. Just today the news has its nuances, eye.

According to sources from the Japanese magazine, the new model would be launched under the umbrella of Infiniti and would have not only a four-door hatchback body, but also a longer battle and a new engine. Instead of using the almighty Godzilla 3.8 V6, 5.0 V8 hidden under the hood of the FX50 should find its niche in the vain of the new model, yes, associated with the same traction system and integral to good use dual-clutch shift developed by Borg Warner for the Infiniti GT-R.

Are these reasons enough to consider an entirely new car? Ghosn knows if it is only hiding in semantics to argue that there will be a Infiniti GT-R four-door, but no matter who has the right, AutoExpress he misses a 0 to 100 for five seconds and a top speed of 270 km / h (up or down).

We do not know very well what to think of all this, so we strongly suggests that at least the idea of creating an anti-M5 is (or was) valued at offices in Tokyo. For us to come anytime. However, the rendering above is what may be the Japanese press.

Infiniti could have its own version of the GT-R

Already in April 2006 discussed the disappointment of Infiniti dealerships before the decision to sell the new Infiniti GT-R as a unique model for Nissan. But sellers of the company, now mired in its expansion Eurasian, could see their prayers answered if the latest news is true.

Infiniti will have a compact coupe rear traction (say, comment)

Along with the new generation of the 350Z, the second big news that Nissan is preparing for lovers of the sport is a small coupe based on the same platform used in his older brother. This 2 +2 yet to be baptized, would compete with this new model halfway between Toyota and Subaru, also of compact dimensions and equipped with rear traction. What they did not expect was a special version for Infiniti.

According to recent rumors of Nissan's luxury brand will have its own derivative of this new Silvia, but while the general model will receive a four-cylinder turbo engine, Infiniti presumed a 2.5 V6 with just over Rasmia.

Inside Line coupe in mind that the Infiniti will be displayed next year in any of the samples from the area, joining an invasion that does not seem to have eastern end. We do not know if all this we owe to the interest of Hyundai to raise the level, but whoever is responsible, thanks.

More power and equipment for Infiniti Europe

Launch a luxury brand is never an easy task, especially in Europe. If not, that is to say what Cadillac or a Lexus. Having closely followed in the footsteps of competition, the boys and girls from Nissan are giving the best of themselves in the European list of Infiniti, preparing a number of changes in the models that were sold in the United States.

To pamper the consumer local, Infiniti will replace the switches in the center console of dials, and integrate Heated seats, bigger brakes, new wipers, better seals on windows, stability systems upgraded, and thus to complete between 300 and 500 changes depending on the vehicle. Additionally, Nissan Europe will equip a new seven-speed automatic, and 3.5 L V6 engine will cease to place a new 3.7 L (but you already knew). Unfortunately, the European market will continue to disruption of four-cylinder engine, although it is something that was remedied with time, like the absence of a compact model.

Infiniti will support financially to its dealers in Europe

It is very easy to forget that the Japanese luxury brands were established in the 80 specifically for the U.S. market. However, like its rivals homelands, Infiniti has expanded beyond the borders, establishing successfully in several Asian countries. Now, is preparing to make the leap to Europe.

The premium brand of Nissan expects to have 78 dealers throughout the continent before the end of 2010, selling a catalog that initial launch will include models Infiniti EX (pictured), Infiniti FX, and Infiniti G. We also know that you are thinking of employing the same strategy he used for years in America, developing a unique model for the Union which could be a good match for the Audi A3. Nissan, however, realizes that you need a good time to get its subsidiary made a hole in the apretadísimo European market, and therefore will support financially its distribution network in the short term, while it achieved profitability.

It will be very interesting to see the evolution of the mark, especially given that Lexus still sweating to make themselves known, and Cadillac is still waking up between indifference and condescendancia.

The firm's luxury Nissan has chosen the Ukrainian market as the second country to launch its models after his excellent entry into the Russian market, with sales higher than expected.

Ukraine has a great economic disparity between classes, but nevertheless has a high number of registrations of luxury vehicles, hitherto dominated by BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and Audi. Infiniti arrives to try to steal some of those sales.

For the initial launch had been scheduled two sedan and an SUV at a high level. The smallest model in turn is the most athletic. Called G35, is the most recent appearance on the market and has a 3.5i V6 engine similar to the Nissan 350Z.

The most luxurious sedan comes in two variants. Under the Infiniti M35 and Infiniti M45, this model boasts V6 and V8 engines and a large equipment. The quality of the materials in either a occupant desentonan wide and comfortable.

Finally the mechanical Infiniti FX35/45 shared with the previous model and its main asset is an aesthetic breakthrough, which combines the look "hard" for the entire field with sportsmanship. The impressive 20-inch wheels are optional, although the series has been running for about 19 and a fully equipped

For after the summer will come the renewed Infiniti QX56, a model with enormous capacity for up to eight passengers and a less refined style, though not without appeal.

Around View Monitor: New parking assistance system for Infiniti

The Infiniti EX concept that will debut next week in the Hall of New York, brings a parking assistance system called Around View Monitor. Four cameras placed around the vehicle (one on the grid, behind and another one on each mirror), creates a video image showing the vehicle from above. The camera's front is perhaps the most special of all, since it remains hidden when not in use and quit when the system. Even chrome is not to tarnish. The obvious use of the system is to assist the driver in situations where we must maneuver parking lot, for the same thing, it's likely that the system is activated only when the vehicle is in reverse. Let's see if someone manages to intervene and save the system a trip with aerial view.

Infiniti shows the first brushstrokes of its future crossover concept

With the simple name of "Crossover" these strokes were delivered by Infiniti today and are coming to a concept. According to the manufacturer, this picture is a "trace" of a "new luxury crossover concept" that will see next April at the Salon de l'Automobile in New York. Infiniti even promised that the production version of the CUV will be available in late 2007. Will this be the replacement of the Infiniti FX? Rather it seems to us a Mazda RX-8 and definitely not a five gates. Perhaps it may be a new model that will try to compete face to face with the whole litter of new Infiniti Crossover coupe coming from European manufacturers of luxury vehicles, such as the BMW Land Rover X6 or Coupe. I hope we do not have to wait until April to see another advance of the model.

Infiniti; seduction Japanese to Russian

Infiniti, who was born almost twenty years ago in the United States in an attempt to Nissan by demonstrating that the Japanese also knew create luxury cars (most of the way of Lexus), has seen many changes in its history. He has gone from being a minimalist brand to a respected name, and confined to the U.S. market to reach countries such as Ukraine, South Korea, China and Russia soon. Precisely in Russia, and more specifically in the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg, Nissan Motor will open three Infiniti dealerships in the hope of attracting a wealthy clientele in the country.

At first Infiniti will sell four to five models, including a todocamino and a mid-size sedan.

Nissan entered Russia in 2004, has since managed to sell the not insignificant figure almost 46,500 cars through its 40 dealers, and appears to have hopes for Infiniti, as it does not exclude lifted a factory in Russia to meet potential local demand.
