Compared with before, Infiniti seems to have been silent for a long time, and there is no news of a new car. Recently, the media exposed that Infiniti plans to launch an electric Q70 successor model to compete with Tesla Model S. The all-new QX80 is expected to go on sale next summer and will cost more than $100,000 with 450 horsepower and the same luxurious interior as the Mercedes-Maybach GLS.
After years of silence, Infiniti has recently shown signs of rebirth with a new logo, minimalist dealer design.
Of course, the logo and showroom should be the last thing Infiniti has to worry about, and the core problem is that the models that the brand is now selling are outdated. Luckily, the company plans to address this, and they used dealer meetings to preview several upcoming models.
According to foreign media reports, Infiniti will launch four new models by the end of 2027, including a new generation of QX80, a new QX65 crossover and two electric vehicles.
The all-new QX80 is expected to be available next summer and will cost more than $100,000. If the actual selling price reaches that number, it will be a huge leap, as the current model starts at $72,700.
While the SUV is still a year away, it will boast a bold design that combines a pronounced grille with "Land Rover's square proportions". The model is also known to have a higher-class interior, similar to the Mercedes-Maybach GLS.
Interior highlights include a 24-inch display, which is expected to consist of a 12-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12-inch infotainment system. The QX80 will also feature touchscreen-controlled air conditioning as well as more spacious third-row seats. We can also expect "flagship" technology, including sensors that can detect body temperature and adjust the air conditioning system accordingly.
In terms of performance, the current tide of emission reduction, so the V8 engine will be eliminated and replaced with a twin-turbocharged six-cylinder engine. Little is known about the specifics, but the engine will be expected to produce 450 horsepower.
About a year later, in mid-2025, Infiniti will launch a new QX65. As the name suggests, the model will be built on the QX60, but with a crossover design like the smaller QX55.
The QX65 will come with a gasoline engine, and the exact specifications are not yet known. It is expected to be powered by the QX60's 3.5-litre V6 engine with 295 hp and 366 Nm of torque.
Nissan was one of the first companies to develop electric vehicles, but Infiniti has been waiting and seeing, while competitors have launched their own electric vehicles. So even if Infiniti only joins the electrification army now, it may be a bigger and bigger gap with its opponents.
There is also the Q70, the Infiniti flagship sedan is currently old, the next generation is expected to use a pure electric design, this car is said to have some similarities with the Tesla Model S, is a Porsche design "slip" sedan.
