INFINITI to unveil new Q50 with holistic performance technologies at Geneva

  • New #q50 features innovative technologies that empower and support the driver
  • First #infiniti vehicle to use "ProPILOT" to label driver support technologies
  • Powertrain options include award-winning 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo

HONG KONG – The new #infiniti #q50 premium sports sedan will make its global debut at the Geneva International Motor Show – featuring innovative technologies that empower and support the driver, taking a holistic approach to performance.

As the company's core brand-building model and best-selling vehicle worldwide, #infiniti has already introduced a number of world-first innovations with the #q50, making empowering technologies accessible to a large number of #infiniti customers.

The new #q50 is the first #infiniti vehicle to use ProPILOT as the overall label for the company's driver support technologies. ProPILOT is the platform upon which all future #infiniti autonomous drive technologies will be based.

One of the ProPILOT technologies included in the new #q50 is second-generation Direct Adaptive Steering – a steer-by-wire system that supports the driver by providing smooth operation, more direct steering responses and easy maneuverability. Direct Adaptive Steering is a precursor to future steering systems that will form a key building block to achieving fully-autonomous driving.

The #q50 delivers an empowering and rewarding drive thanks to innovative powertrains, including the award-winning 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine from the new and exclusive "VR"powertrain family, which was recently named on the prestigious 2017 Ward's "10 Best Engines" list.

The new #q50, to be revealed at the Geneva International Motor Show during the #infiniti press conference at 08:15 (CET) on March 7, will also feature refreshed exterior and interior design – bringing the car in line with the brand's "designed to perform" ethos.

More information on the new #q50, including images and video, will be available via www.INFINITIpresspacks.com from 08:30 (CET) on March 7.
