Then Infiniti showed the GT-R-powered Quintessence concept at the Geneva display, and the rumors fired up again. Little talk was that the sedan design was deceased and the novel flagship was to be an Essense-like coupe with GT-R power.
Admirably, today Interior Mark has well-informed that both plans possess strike the rubbish can. Infiniti has definite that a high-powered flagship is fair not what it needs correct at present. Not at a period when S-Class and 7 Series sales are route down.
It's impartial to state that there's nothing in the result design for an Infiniti flagship correct at present, Brian Carolin, Nissan 's Elder VP of Sales and Marketing, told IL. It's fair not a precedence in today's weather.
Our dealers would quite possess something with more amount, he continued. Twelve months ago they would possess said yes; at present it's route down on their desire listing. — Scott Oldham, Interior Mark Rewrite man in Chief
