    Coming To The Geneva Motor Show: The Next G

    September 2, 2012

    Infiniti is looking at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show to introduce the next-generation G. This news coming from the Infiniti's design chief Shiro Nakamura.

    Nakamura also revealed that the next G will be "much sportier and more dynamic thanthe current car". Much like the current G lineup, the next generation will include a sedan, coupe, and convertible. The next-generation G will also have gas and diesel engines from Mercedes-Benz.

    Infiniti will likely introduce the G sedan at Geneva, with the coupe and convertible following sometime later in 2013 or early 2014.

    I still dont see the Nissan based engines as being so inferior to the MB engines! Could they not afford the next gen of their own engines so they move to MB engines instead? Will they be smaller say future 2.5L DI Turbo MB V6's to replace the older NA 3.5/3.7L nissan based units so as to save both cost and fuel for the upcoming regs? This still seems like a strange move to me on their part!

    The 3.5/3.7 is aanncciieennt, one has to wonder if there simply isn't the money to develop a new V6 @ nissan.

    But buying a competitor's engine is 'giving up', IMO.

    Nissan isn't giving up the V6s.. This is for the Mercedes-Benz four-cylinders

    Well that makes even less sense then the V6's! The G model is a V6 powered model not an I4 powered one at least not yet! What wonderful I4's does MB have that are so much better then the Nissan units?---This is getting weirder by the moment!!---First I was hearing MB platforms would be used by Infinity and now its V6's and I4's! None of this makes sense unless Nissan and Infinity are in serious and unreported financial trouble!!

      Ford News: Ford Unveils its new Universal Vehicle Platform

      Will it happen or wont it happen? Only Trump, his kids and his administration truly know the answer to that future.

      No feelings. Just facts. But I see as to how Americans are in this predicament...  You keep on thinking that Gen Z is a cause...      It seems that you are believing with feelings...

      Trump? No, I do not think he will serve a 3rd term. That is absurd. That better not happen.

      And you really believe that he will relinquish his office in 2028? But you did ask me a question. GM profit down 35% in Q2 of 2025. Net profit so far in Q2 is 1.9 billion from 47 billion revenue. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2025/07/gm-q2-2025-earnings-revenue-income-profit/#:~:text=GM Q2 2025 earnings are,1.8 percent drop in revenue.   And tariffs havent really been activated fully. And Trump keeps on redacting and modifying because his admin actually does know the damage being done.  But GM is really hurtin' not even a full year into Trump's presidency JUST as the Ultium EV collection has been taking off for GM.  GM needs ALL their profits to engineer Ultium 2.0 and to better combat a possible Chinese onslaught in North America and of course all over the world.  There are Chinese EVs in the Mexican market. Not yet in Canada as our politicians are keeping hope alive as to still salvage a partnership with the US.  But that hope is diminishing.  Canada has gone elsewhere for economic partnerships and the last bastion of a US/Canada partnership IS in the automotive industry.  And the ONLY reason why Canada hasnt jumped ship in that industry just yet is because we do not fully trust China.  But its truly sad to be putting  not trusting the US in the same breath as not trusting China... So yeah...GM is on shaky ground for 2029.  Bankrupt in 2029?  Not quite but not far off if current trends are keeping the line.  The Trump regime has become an autocracy. Not a dictatorship. There is a difference. One that the civilians have allowed and not by force. I wonder what WILL happen in 2028?  You think the constitution will be honoured?   In many areas it hasnt...

      Sorry, I was just reading and quoting the article YOU posted. Are you insinuating your source of data is incorrect or invalid?  No, I did not ask you a question.  You can disagree with it if you'd like, but that doesn't make your feelings factual.
