Infiniti Confirms Production Of 2012 M35 Hybrid

Looks like Infiniti is getting more serious about taking on Lexus. Back in August we saw the M get "virtually revealed" at Pebble Beach. We've also been following the tale of the upcoming JDM-only new Nissan Fuga, a car which is virtually identical to Infiniti's M. Then of course Inside Line dropped the M-bomb when they published pics of both the M56 and M37x after their secret pre-production test drive. Meaning we know there's going to be a 400+ hp 5.6-liter V8 M56, a VQ engined M37 (with around 330 hp -- as much or more than the V8 in the outgoing M45 makes) and M37x (x = AWD). There's also a diesel M aimed at Europe. But today we learn there is another.

A blogger that doesn't know much considering this is supposed to be their answer to the Lexus GS450h not the GS400h as stated in the article. Good luck to Infiniti, but in 3 years Lexus will be at a whole new level in regards to their model line-up, especially hybrids.

You might as well say that to Bimmer first.

The GS has always sold roughly around the same number of units as the M, but you're right, the GS isn't a volume leader.

This car has really ugly front and boring rear. Still love my 05 G, strong design concept there(at least for front). Somebody kicks this Bangle-fan designer out of Infiniti!

HA!! ugly front and boring rear? I'm glad I don't have your taste. I know beautiful when I see it and this is in fact one of the most beautiful cars in its segment.

Too bad your taste is not at the same level as an architect :) ..... Even worse, you seem to share the same taste as Chris Bangle.....
