2011 Infiniti M

The new Infiniti M, seen in Tokyo in Nissan Fuga guise, eschewed the 2009 Los Angeles auto show floor in favor of a private debut down the road at a glitzy Beverly Hills hotel.
On the outside, the 2011 M features Infiniti Essence Concept-inspired styling with round, swoopy bodywork and a new take on the Infiniti grille. Behind it, an updated 330-hp V-6 or 420-hp V-8 can be found and later a hybrid drive system will join the mix. All will be mated to Infiniti's seven-speed automatic transmission and AWD is optional. Also available is a Sport package that will upgrade the brakes, add bigger wheels and tires and tighten up the suspension.

Inside, the M gets a new dash trimmed in wood with silver powder and a new user interface that help to refine Infiniti's previously button-heavy setup. The 16-speaker Bose audio system also employs Bose's noise-cancellation technology to reduce exterior noise while the new Forest Air system replicates the gentle breezes and fresh smells of the forest. You can read more about the new M in our complete First Drive of the prototype version here, then catch it in the metal at your local Infiniti dealer in the spring.
