The Infiniti Q60 is a premium sports coupe that combines a completely new design with performance and dynamics. The taut, muscular lines of the exterior underline the Q60’s considerable performance potential — reinforced by an all-new 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine. The high performance 3.0-liter engine from the new and exclusive “VR” powertrain family is born out of the brand’s extensive in-house experience in six-cylinder powertrain development. The new engine, available with 400 horsepower (hp) in the Q60 Red Sport 400, has been designed to offer increased power and torque while maintaining high levels of efficiency. A four-cylinder 2.0-liter engine, turbocharged to produce 208 brake horsepower (bhp), is also available. As standard, power is channeled through the Q60’s rear wheels for immediate dynamic responses.

It will celebrate its premiere at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. The new Opel Insignia Country Tourer impresses with the same virtues as its Grand Sport and Sports Tourer siblings. It is spacious and considerably lighter than the outgoing version thanks to an all-new architecture. It also comes with a wide range of innovative technologies.
