2015 Infiniti ESQ Caught In The Wet In Spy Photos
Yesterday, we received word of the China-only Infiniti ESQ crossover, which is really the Nissan Juke minus the Nissan. Today, we have some spy shots and some information on the ESQ.
CarNewsChina reports the ESQ will enter the market by the end of the year, and will have few differences in appearance with the Juke, though most consumers won’t likely know about the badge-engineering exercise on the showroom floor; the Juke is not sold at all either as an import or as a locally made product.
Infiniti’s crossover will be assembled by the Dongfeng-Nissan joint venture, and will have the same 1.6-liter turbo delivering 200 horsepower and 184 ft-lb of torque to all four corners via CVT as the Juke Nismo. No price of admission has been given thus far.

I wish there was so much tall fESQue around it that I couldn't see it.
I still can't get over the fact that the U.S.-market Juke feels hopelessly cheap (which is one reason that I steered my grandmother toward the Kia Soul instead), but these design modifications are, to my eyes, improvements.
