The usually well informed on local businesses is important Nikkei Japanese newspaper, reported last month that Nissan would launch the Infiniti brand in the country with the Q50 predecessors which were sold as the Nissan Skyline, leaving questions about the fate of this last .
It happens that, in a twisted way, the report is partly right, and we say this because the company today unveiled the new Nissan Skyline with Infiniti badges, and we quote two passages from the official release order you can better understand the confusion.
Nissan Motor Co Ltd announced today the launch of the all-new Skyline, which will be on sale in late February 2014 Nissan dealers throughout Japan.
Offering unparalleled driving pleasure, her sensual design, advanced technology and performance will be new benchmarks for luxury models What support they are a great strength of technology and expertise in Nissan design acquired through the development of Nissan Motor Company premium brand of world-class, Infiniti As proof, the new door Skyline Infiniti badge.
So in other words, Nissan presented the car that the world has come to know that the new Infiniti Q50 as the new Nissan Skyline in Japan but instead of wearing the Nissan logo, it uses Infiniti emblems .
We're guessing that Nissan wanted to kill suddenly Skyline plate he chose the strange place, and frankly quite confusing solution quietly introduce the Infiniti plate on its domestic market before making his next move.
Besides the white turning signals front, replacing the Infiniti nickname on the trunk lid trim with the name Skyline, and the absence of the Infiniti logo on the trunk, there's nothing different in appearance Japanese market Nissan Skyline with the global Infiniti Q50.
At launch, the new Skyline will be offered exclusively in a doubled 350GT hybrid variant which combines a 296hp 3 5 liters V6 to a 50kW motor and a compact lithium ion, with a system output 354 horse- steam will be available in both RWD and AWD variants.
Prices in Japan range from 4,496,100 yen to 5,537,700 yen 45300 to 55800, including consumption tax.
Nissan noted that the previous generation V36 Skyline continue to be classified into three categories, 250 GT, 250 Type S and 250GT FOUR.
REPEAT New Nissan Skyline Wears Emblems Infiniti But it remains a Nissan in Japan, nissan skyline, Infiniti.
