The Infiniti Q60 Coupe was, basically, the two-door version of the Q50 sedan, but its closest relative was the Nissan 370 Z or the much famed Nissan Skyline. And that was a good thing.
Infiniti made a name of itself by building reliable, premium vehicles. Its presence in Europe was not so important and it lost the battle against the German premium car-makers.
From the outside, the design was different. It was the kind of car that made the driver stand out of the crowd. It featured a big grille with chrome surrounding and the aggressive headlights. The sloped roof looked sportier and made the car look more compact, even if it was slightly taller than the Audi A5 coupe or the BMW 4-Series.
Inside the spectacular look from the outside lost its pace. The instrument cluster looked more like traditional. On the center console, there were two screens: one for the navigation and on-board computer and the other for the infotainment unit that was Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible. Most of the buttons and switches are carried over by other Nissan products and, even if it had a key-less system, the actual key fob looked like the one found on the Nissan Navara pickup. In the rear, there were two seats but with very limited headroom. But, at least, the front seats were bolstered and beautifully crafted.
Under the hood, there were few engine options, starting with a 2.0-liter turbocharged unit that offered 304 hp, while the top version was a 3.0-liter twin-turbo with 405 hp. Worth mentioning that the 2.0-liter unit was a Mercedes-Benz engine and it was listed in the top 10 engines of the year at the time of its launch.
