Nissan reaffirms Infiniti as luxury growth pillar

Nissan has named Infiniti a central pillar of its long-term growth strategy, with President and Chief Executive Ivan Espinosa using the company’s global Vision event in Nashville to announce a pipeline of new luxury models. The plans include a midsize hybrid SUV, a performance-oriented V6 sedan and two large hybrid SUVs.

The recently unveiled 2027 QX65 marks the start of Infiniti’s renewed product push, joining the QX80 in a portfolio spanning hybrid and V6 powertrains. Alongside the four new Infiniti models, Nissan confirmed a family of US-built vehicles on a new body-on-frame platform covering both its Nissan and Infiniti nameplates.

Eric Ledieu, Vice President, Infiniti Americas, said: “Infiniti is central to Nissan’s global strategy for growth, and today’s announcements make that commitment unmistakably clear. QX65 is the latest example of new product momentum and our continued path toward refined, performance-driven powertrains, including hybrid and V6 models. We are building a premium portfolio that is distinctive, confident, and designed around our clients. This is about restoring clarity to the Infiniti brand and delivering experiences that truly stand apart in the luxury market.”
