NAIAS 2015: Infiniti Lights Up Its World With Q60 Concept
What’s white with blue lights all over itself and a pair of haunting eyes? The Infiniti Q60 Concept, of course [Live photos now available – CA].
The 2+2 coupe is powered by the same 3-liter twin-turbo direct-injection V6 that first bowed with the Q80 Inspiration from last year’s Paris Motor Show. Power from the mill is sent to the back via a seven-speed auto.
Inside, hand-stitched leather, carbon fiber accents, and four quilted-and-bolstered bucket seats greet the driver and passengers. Meanwhile, the driver (or up to four of them) can use their Intelligent Key with the Infiniti InTuitionTM system to customize their preferences, from seating position and HVAC, to navigation and telematics.
On the outside, human eye-inspired LED headlamps uses fiber optic-esque features that, when lit by the projector, deliver “a high-tech stare” at the long road ahead. Similar features make up the tail lamps, while the badge and various interior and exterior LED lighting are done up in blue.
Though a concept, the Q60 Concept points toward a production-based sports coupe Infiniti plans to begin production in 2016.

The soft lines mixed with teh hard lines look a little odd to me. Especially that front fender vent. But...it's a concept and sexy headlights and mirrors always seem to change to actual production models. We'll see. I can't keep track of what infinity models fall where anyway.
Not really my style, but good to see Infiniti making an effort. Unfortunate that they're going the Honda route with two screens in the center stack. Do luxury car buyers have so much time on their hands that they prefer to dig through menus to turn on the heated seats?
