Already a successful...

Already a successful range of luxury and sports models in North America, the Middle and Far East, the Infiniti range will be sold through "a dedicated dealer network" according to Nissan"s official statement, though it seems likely this will be an adjunct to the existing Nissan network, rather than entirely new showrooms.

The Infiniti cars will compete directly with Lexus, BMW and Mercedes, but may spell the end of the top-end Nissans, such as the 350Z coupe, as they may be replaced with their Infiniti equivalents. In the case of the much-loved 350Z, this is the Infiniti G35, a slightly smoother coupe more in the mould of a 3-series BMW.
