Infiniti
Infiniti is Japanese luxury cars manufacturer, which was founded in 1989. This brand is a division of Nissan. It was created specifically for the competition in the premium class market with Acura and Lexus. Initially, Infiniti cars have been targeted at the US market, but later they began to be sold worldwide.
Virtually every model of this brand has a counterpart in the Nissan range or uses Nissan platform.
All Infiniti engines are the most powerful and large Nissan engines, but sometimes they are also from Mercedes-Benz. The cheapest cars use turbocharged 4-cylinder Mercedes-Benz engines, as well as V6 Nissan VQ25. The most common models use 6-cylinder VQ35 and VQ37, they are found in many Infiniti models. The largest cars and SUV’s are equipped with V8, for example, such engines as VK45, VK50, and VK56.
In the oldest models of 90’s you may find inline 4-cylinder SR20DE, as well as VG30, VH45, VH41, and other engines.
