The Detroit Auto Show media days are still in full swing, but Infiniti is already looking ahead to the Geneva Motor Show with another teaser of the company’s plug-in hybrid electric sports car. Yes, we’ve seen other sketches of the car (this one) but not of this section, the general rear pillar area.
The vehicle does not have a name yet, so Infiniti is calling it the “Advanced Sports Car Concept.” We do know it’s mid-engined, with a battery pack in there to extend the range. Infiniti says the purpose of this concept is, “to explore what might be the next stage in how to deliver a vivid, engaging and sophisticated driving experience from an electrically propelled vehicle.” The EV range should be respectable, since Infiniti is promising “zero emission operation in urban situations,” which we do hope means more than just a few spare miles in a lithium pack. We’ll learn more in Geneva.
