Plans for Electrification
Electrification gives us the chance to strengthen the INFINITI brand through the adoption of forward-looking technology, daring design, and exciting new cars. Concepts like the Qs Inspiration are emblematic of our potential as we plan a range of electric and e-POWER and performance cars.

INFINITI’S PLANS FOR ELECTRIFICATION - CHOICE OF ELECTRIC AND E-POWER PERFORMANCE POWERTRAINS
The Qs Inspiration Concept sets a direct precedent for a forthcoming electrified production model from INFINITI, one of a series of advanced-powertrain road cars to be launched by the brand in the coming years. Electrification is a natural next step for the company, and presents an opportunity to reinvent the INFINITI brand globally through high-performance, low-emissions models which offer a thrilling driving experience and total range confidence.
As a member of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance – the global leader in low- and zero-emissions vehicles – a range of ultra-low emissions technology is available to INFINITI. The brand’s future models will offer drivers a mixture of fully-electric and e-POWER performance vehicles. These powertrains will be matched with dedicated platforms and vehicle architectures, delivering the high performance, complete range confidence and low environmental impact that buyers are coming to expect from premium car manufacturers.
Christian Meunier, President of INFINITI, comments: “For 30 years INFINITI has built a reputation for introducing new technology that delights and gives confidence to drivers. The age of electrification presents us with an opportunity to renew our credentials as an innovative challenger brand, ready to move quickly and decisively in this growing and exciting area of the market.”
The Qs Inspiration joins the QX Inspiration Concept in signaling the brand’s intentions to produce a range of electrified vehicles.
