Infiniti has officially canceled the Q60 Project Black S, which was reportedly headed by former Infiniti boss Roland Krueger. With 563 hp it was supposed to use Formula One technology.
Although it never came into production, Infiniti spokesman Kyle Bazemore said “The concept continues to inspire us.”
The Q60 had a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine and a 4.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. It produced 563 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. It was supposed to accelerate from 0 – 62 mph in less than 4 seconds. Only two prototypes of this model have been produced.
“I would much rather see something like the QX60 [crossover]. That’s a volume vehicle, that’s where this company needs to go,” Ed Lennon, the Infiniti National Dealer Advisory Board chairman, told Automotive News.
The new Infiniti Q60, a blend of daring and luxury. A combination of new technology and uncompromising design.
Outside, a custom-designed Carbon Fiber Rear Deck Lid Spoiler and distinctive design give the Q60 an aggressive character and dynamic look. 20-inch wheels improve his athletic stance.
Inside, high-back bolstered seats offer greater support to enhance your in-control feel. The steering wheel and transmission are wrapped in leather with contrast stitches, while the seats are covered in semi-aniline leather which provides a durable and soft seating surface. This is an exclusive space for drivers, capturing the spirit of a premium sport coupe. Sport Floor Mats embrace your performance nature with a specially placed rubber section to save on heels.
Keep your Q60 protected and aesthetically pleasing with a Carbon Fiber Look Rear Bumper Protector that guards against scrapes when loading and unloading cargo. It provides just 9.0 cubic feet of cargo space in its trunk.
Choose between Rack Electronic Power Steering with Sport mode or digital with Direct Adaptive Steering, on the ProACTIVE Package. Independent front and rear suspension gives you a smooth level ride. On the Q60 Red Sport 400 Dynamic Digital Suspension electronically regulates the balance between comfort and performance. Adjustable dampers respond in real time to changing road demands and to driver input.
The Q60 is offered in Pure, Luxe and Red Sport variants.
