Infiniti’s often discussed future premium compact model will be built at Nissan’s UK plant in Sunderland, Nissan says. It was previously announced that the new Infiniti will “share a platform developed with Mercedes.
The car is one of the outcomes of the partnership between the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Daimler. According to Nissan, the car will “create a further 1,000 jobs at Sunderland and across the UK.” Which is quite a number for a low-volume car. Could it be that Daimler will also move in at Sunderland? As we learned from the abortive GM/PSA plans, true savings come when you don’t just share the platform, but also the plant.
Time and capacity utilization will tell.

Somebody sure likes the Lexus spindle grill.
More like Lexus likes the Infiniti Essence spindle grill….
Not only that, the whole “Predator” grill look was 1st done by GM’s Holden and then by Hyundai (for a concept) – so Toyota is way down on the list.
I cannot decide if the face on that rendering is a “mean face” or a “shit eatin grin” LOL
Looks like a disapproving little old lady to me.
Whatever it is, it will have a “Q” in the name.
Is this the Qx30 with some new Mercedes Benz motor? Infiniti’s fail is starting to show.
It looks like another giant catfish got away from Jeremy Wade.
Who put an Infiniti grill on a Hyundai?
Looks like Lightning McQueen’s divorce attorney.
