The Infiniti M45 Concept, which made its world debut at
the New York International Auto Show, offers a unique, advanced look
into the future design and technology direction of Infiniti. The M45
Concept captures the essence of both the current M45 performance sport
sedan and the award-winning Infiniti G35 – and takes both to a new level
of engaging luxury and performance.
The M45
Concept features a powerful 340-horsepower 4.5-liter V8, taken from the
flagship Infiniti Q45, along with a new generation of the FM (Front
Mid-ship) platform currently used on the G35 sedan, G35 coupe and FX
premium crossover SUV. Approximately 60 percent of the platform design
and components have been enhanced for use with the M45 Concept.
The new,
redefined platform is designed to accommodate the M45 Concept’s
4.5-liter V8 engine or a 3.5-liter V6, continuing to position the engine
behind the front axle. As in current applications, this positioning
results in an optimized front-to-rear weight balance, which factors in
weight transfer during key handling maneuvers. Also like the production
FM platform, the M45 Concept’s large diameter wheels and tires are
positioned out near the corners of the vehicle, providing an extra
measure of handling stability and driving excitement. The M45 Concept’s
suspension is an independent double-wishbone design in front and
multi-link independent in the rear.
