The Infiniti Q60 Black S Is An Angry-Looking Concept That Has To Get Made

If you’ve not lusted after an Infiniti before, you’re about to. The Nissan sub-brand isn’t exactly known for fast, desirable cars, but it’s just cooked up one hell of a concept for the Geneva Motor Show.

It’s called the Q60 Black S, it’s been built to celebrate Infiniti’s new technical partnership with the Renault F1 team, and it’s quite a striking thing. Taking the existing Q60 and adding a ridiculous amount of visual aggression, the Black S is packing various carbonfibre aero pieces including a new rear wing, rear diffuser, side skirts and a front splitter. The lower area of the front bumper makes the Black S look particularly angry.

The arches have been widened to accommodate an increase in track, and filled with enormous 21-inch alloy wheels. Under the bonnet you’ll find the same 400bhp, four-wheel drive twin-turbo V6 setup as the existing Q60 range-topper, but Infiniti won’t just be leaving it there. The plan is to develop an F1-inspired Kers system to up that figure to 500bhp.

The big question is, will this actually be put into production? At the moment, nothing’s been confirmed, but it hasn’t been ruled out either. According to Infiniti, the car “will help to gauge potential public interest in high-performance derivatives of Infiniti cars”.

A few years Infiniti teased us all with the Q50 Eau Rouge, which never made it past the concept stage, the Black S would be quite a nice way to make up to us power hungry petrolheads, don’t you think?

This is a hot Q60. The Q60 is based from the Q50. The Q50 is called Skyline in Japan. A hot skyline is a Skyline GTR. So this is a Skyline GTR, so you better not disappoint, Infiniti.

Is it just me, or does it look like a NISMO GT-R in the back with the diffuser.

I agree; Below the taillights, it’s strikingly similar.

Is it just me or is there a bit of GTR in the shape of this car? I like it though.
