Infiniti
unveiled its new Coupe concept in Detroit Sunday, and Erin Mays was there to get the details. The concept was launched
by Mark Igo, Vice President and General Manager of the Infiniti Division for Nissan North America.
Designed
by Nissan Technical Center (NTC) in Atsugi, Japan, the concept features a “seductive body design,” – a
simple, performance-inspired design that follows the Infiniti philosophy of being able to express a design in just a
line or two.
It seems obvious from the Coupe concept’s appearance that we’re looking at the next generation
G35 Coupe, which itself is an admired design that’s going to be difficult to follow.
