Infiniti is an interesting company. They started out being part of this great wave of Japanese manufacturers moving upmarket to take on the Germans. All of them, Acura, Infiniti, and Lexus took dead aim at the luxury sedan market.
But now, all these years later, Infiniti has morphed into something more than they started out to do. Yes, they still makes sedans, and they are still quite impressive. And Infiniti continues to focus on an expansion of the SUV/crossover market because there’s money to be made there.
But Infiniti has also been tasked with making big sports coupes for the North American market.
It’s a shrewd move in a way. For a certain growing market segment, sport coupes coated in more tech contraptions than the Millennium Falcon is where it’s at. They were always a thing in Japan, but bringing them across the Pacific to America has been more complicated than it should be. Yes, there’s a segment that would happily take a Skyline with the steering wheel on the correct side. But Nissan was never quite sure of this, so they never brought something like a Skyline over whole (until Godzilla showed up in the guise of the GT-R). They would, however, send over bits and pieces that would end up in Infiniti coupes.
Which brings us to the 2017 Infiniti Q60 3.0t Sport.
