Infiniti's new Q60 launched

Infiniti's new Q60 is officially launched, with a total of 2 models. The 2 models launched are equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine matched with a 7-speed automatic transmission. New car introduction

Outstanding exterior design

The new Q60 left a deep impression on people when it was unveiled at the 2016 Guangzhou Auto Show, especially the sexy coupe shape, which was hailed as the most beautiful Infiniti model by the majority of netizens. Although the car comes from the same platform as the Q50, it surpasses the Q50 in all aspects in terms of face value and has sharper lines compared to rivals like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe version and Lexus RC.

The front part of the new car gives a very strong visual impact, coupled with the clever use of chrome materials, the visual effect is very sporty. At the same time, the design of the new car's lights is also very murderous and highly recognizable.

The new car's width and wheelbase are better than its rivals, plus the horizontal design style, so that it'ss rear visual center of gravity is very low, with smooth lines and clever light design, the overall look like a concept car. 19-inch wheels also boost the body, the new Q60's face value in the same class is quite outstanding.

Good interior materials / lack of sportiness

The design of the interior is not fashionable compared to the high-value appearance, and its design is the same as the Q50 after the overseas facelift. The symmetrical design of the center console is not very sporty, which is inevitably disappointing for this highly personalized sports car.

However, the interior of the new car is made of good materials and technology, soft materials, and stitching center console in line with the price of the car, and the feel of the new steering wheel is also more excellent. At the same time, the bottom of the steering wheel also used a small flat bottom design, the visual effect is more sporty. In addition, the dual-screen control area has a strong sense of technology, and the display effect of the screen is also outstanding. There are also some small designs in this multimedia system to add fun.

The second row is not a decoration

Although the potential owners of the two-door coupe don't care much about space, the rear row of this new Q60 performs well. When a 175cm tall person sits in the front row and adjusts the seat to the lowest level to get 2 fingers of headroom, keeping the front row unchanged, the same person sits in the back row, the legroom and headroom are just right, not too suffocating, and the sitting position is also reasonably designed.

2.0T+7AT

The two Q60 models listed in the previous period are equipped with an M274 2.0T turbocharged engine matched with a 7-speed automatic transmission powertrain, which comes from Mercedes-Benz.

New car background

The predecessor of the Infiniti Q60 is the Infiniti G-Series Coupe and G-Series Convertible, both of which originated from Infiniti's G-Series midsize car, the predecessor of the Q50. After the replacement, Infiniti renamed the G-Series trim level to Q50, but the G-Series coupe and convertible versions were not replaced and renamed to Q60, a naming scheme similar to BMW, just like the relationship between the 3-Series and 4-Series. The new Q60 comes from the same platform as the Q50 currently on sale and is sold in China as an import.

Competitor Analysis

The new Q60 is positioned as a two-door coupe, and its main rivals are the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and the Lexus RC, all three of which are niche models. Compared to its competitors, the new Q60's face is more eye-catching and looks very handsome at first glance. The face is a very important factor for this class, and excellent design sense can attract its potential consumers. However, the interior of the car is still slightly old-fashioned compared to the competition, and not as stylish as the other two models.

Summary.

The outstanding exterior design and good practicality make the new Q60 gain good attention in this niche market, and the powertrain from Mercedes-Benz also provides a guarantee for the car. The new Q60 is designed for people who like what they see, and what they want is something different, and the new Q60 delivers on that.
