    Rumormill: Infiniti hybrid sports car coming by 2016 after all?     1368541800

    Infiniti makes plenty of good cars, crossovers and SUVs. The premium Japanese brand also has a well-defined presence in racing on the world's largest stage in the form of a partnership with Red Bull in Formula 1. What Infiniti doesn't have, though, is a range-topping halo car. A report from Autocar in the UK suggests that Infiniti's gaping top-shelf ...

    The sand, the wind, the penalties, the contact and the one crash – all of them collided to make the Bahrain Formula One Grand Prix a surprise affair from day to day and lap to lap. Oh, and did we mention the tires? Pirelli made a last-minute swap after the amusement park ride that the Chinese Grand Prix turned into with the soft compound tire, and ...

    Video: Watch Infiniti Red Bull Racing set a world record pitstop time in Malaysia     1365093900

    How quickly can you change a tire? The pit crew for Infiniti Red Bull Racing can do it in 2.05 seconds.

    Featured: 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid gives us déjà vu     1364488200

    If we were totally lazy, we'd just copy and paste the text from our Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid post into this one. Why? Because the Infiniti JX35 QX60 Hybrid you see here is pretty much identical to its Nissan-badged sibling. At least, in terms of mechanicals. But we aren't lazy... completely. Instead, let's have a quick recap. Engine: Supercharged 2.5 ...

    Video: Infiniti-Red Bull Racing will seek a fourth title with the RB9 [w/video]     1360069200

    This is the car and the team that everyone wants to dethrone. The stability of this year's regulations means that the Infiniti Red Bull RB9 is a seriously honed RB8; however, that's a situation probably no other team would complain about seeing that the RB8 recovered from early stumbles and reliability issues last year to carry Sebastian Vettel to a third ...

    Report: Infiniti boss De Nysschen confirms next Q60 Coupe, ponders high-performance variants     1358890200

    We've known since mid-December that Infiniti's new global model naming convention would turn the current-generation G37 Coupe into the Q60 Coupe starting next year, but we haven't been clear on whether the model-range-formerly-known-as-G would get a successor, especially as its volume has traditionally been a lot lower than its sedan ...
