Infiniti Q60 Concept teased ahead of Detroit debut

The Infiniti Q60 Concept is teased ahead of a debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January 2015, previewing the new upcoming Q60 production model.

Infiniti is moving its design direction forward as it seeks to make more of an impact in the premium market, and the new Infiniti Q60, previewed in the above teaser shot, does look both elegant and interesting.

The teaser shot doesn’t show us more than a silhouette, but we can see big wheel arches – front and back – a rising kink towards the back, a sleek coupe silhouette, big 5-spoke alloys, slim door mirrors (which may be cameras rather than glass) and what appears to be the absence of door handles.

Some of the features may be ‘concept only’, but it does seem the Q60 Concept is close to a production model.

Sitting on a modified version of the platform underpinning the Q50, the Q60 will sit in size somewhere between the BMW 4 Series and 6 Series and come with a range of turbo diesel and petrol engines as well as the 3.7 litre V6.

We don’t yet know if Infiniti are bringing the Q60 to the UK, but with their clearly sated aim of improving European sales it seems highly likely. If so, it will probably arrive in late 2015 or early 2016 with prices starting north of around £30k.
