Our engines are a fusion of advanced technology and engineering. They provide optimal power, torque and fuel consumption. But they’re not just a form of mobility. They’re also designed to exhilarate.
The INFINITI VC-Turbo is one of the most advanced internal combustion engines ever created. The variable compression ratio engine will establish new benchmarks for power, efficiency and emissions against which future powertrains will be measured.
BENEFITS OF INFINITI VC-TURBO
GREATER FUEL EFFICIENCY
27% fuel efficiency improvement over non-VC engines.
HIGHER OUTPUT
268hp – a higher power output than many four-cylinder non-VC engines.
LESS VIBRATION NOISE
10DB vibration noise. That’s an impressive 20DB lower than non-VC engines.
AN INSPIRED FUSION OF BOTH WORLDS
Moving seamlessly between compression ratios, the INFINITI VC-Turbo engine responds to driving conditions and continuously adapts. It offers performance when you need it and efficiency when you don’t.
8:1 COMPRESSION FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE
The astonishing power of a high-performance 2.0 litre gas engine.
This is the lightest, most powerful V6 engine INFINITI has ever created. It’s also the cleanest and most fuel-efficient. Our Twin Turbo V6 Engine is engineered to take you beyond with breathtaking horsepower.
BENEFITS OF INFINITI TWIN TURBO V6
300 OR 400 HORSEPOWER
Our 3.0-litre Twin Turbo V6 is available in 300 and 400 horsepower. With advanced turbo technologies, it delivers unparalleled power, torque and fuel economy for an engine its size.
IMMEDIATE ACCELERATION
An electric motor improves valve timing by reducing any delay at the start of acceleration. This makes throttle response faster, so the feeling of flight can take hold in seconds.
ADVANCED TURBO TECHNOLOGY
Our Twin Turbo V6 includes a special turbo speed sensor that generates 10 percent more power. It allows the turbine to reach up to 222,000 RPM, so turbo speed peaks higher.
MAXIMIZING PERFORMANCE
The Twin Turbo V6's precision-cut design helps achieve maximum performance by quickly compressing and circulating the air within the turbochargers.
The INFINITI V8 engine is a 5.6-liter powerhouse and produces 400hp and 413 lb-ft torque. It gives you a smooth, heady performance that really comes into its own on freeways or when carrying cargo.
BENEFITS OF INFINITI V8 ENGINE
SMOOTH, 7-SPEED TRANSMISSION
The automatic transmission offers a seamless change up through the gears. You get pulling power at low speeds and strong passing power on the highway.
HIGHER OUTPUT
With an output of 400hp and 413 pounds of torque you’ve got muscular performance whenever you need it.
OUTSTANDING TOWING CAPACITY
The INFINITI V8 engine gives you a towing capacity of 8,500lbs. That’s one of the highest figures for a large SUV.
We set out to create a new kind of luxury automotive brand, one which was a perfect blend of power, performance and artistry. We’ve never strayed far from our roots.
Powerful elegance is at the heart of our design philosophy. The inspiration may come from art or poetry but the execution is always powerful and purposeful.
