Infiniti Updates Vehicle Lineup for 2010
01.18.10
Infiniti, Nissan’s luxury automotive brand, recently announced updates to their lineup for 2010, with small cosmetic updates dominating the brand’s changes. This is welcome news to current owners of Infiniti vehicles, as it means another year without their late-model cars becoming outdated on the road.
Infiniti’s G coupe, sedan and convertible are the most affordable models in the brand’s lineup, but come loaded with many features standard that the competition charges extra for. Buyers of Infiniti receive goodies like HID headlights, heated seats, larger wheels and 6-cylinder engines for the same (or less) money than many other cars that charge for these options as extras. G coupe drivers also get over 300 horsepower from a 6-cylinder engine that shares the same heritage as the now-infamous Nissan GT-R.
In the world of luxury auto brands, Infiniti also competes on both price points and features with the 3 major German brands (Audi, BMW and Mercedes) as well as the other two major Japanese luxury brands (Lexus and Acura). Fit and finish is solid on the current Infiniti lineup, with the traits luxury buyers look for in their cars and SUVs - solid construction of a Mercedes C or E class, quality tactile interiors of an Audi A4 and A6, powerful engines and world-class handling of a BMW 3-series.
For 2010, Infiniti updates are mostly concentrated on the G series, and summarized as the following:
G Coupe – Revised interior colors and trim appearance, available next generation navigation system, new gauge color scheme and center console design, rain-sensing wipers and Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS) with Plasmacluster™ air purifier added to Technology Package, revised Journey model content and one new exterior color. On sale January 2010.
G Sedan – New grille, front fascias (Base and Sport) and headlight treatments, new 17-inch wheels, revised interior colors and trim, available next generation navigation system, new gauge color scheme and center console design, rain-sensing wipers and Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS) with Plasmacluster™ air purifier added to Technology Package, standard 8-way power-adjustable passenger seat and one-touch auto up/down rear windows on Base model, revised Journey model content and two new exterior colors. On sale January 2010.
G Convertible – The 2009 G37 Convertible went on sale in June 2009. Information on the 2010 model will be available at a later date.
