[Nissan News] The Infiniti Essence

This might just be a wild concept by Infiniti.

But it definately caught my attention. Look at those curves !

Finally, electric and hybric cars are getting interesting. They can be fast, real fast and yet does not consumed as much petrol as traditional supercar does. (Hmmm ... but what need to be burnt to generate electricity ... hmmm).

This Infiniti Essence concept is powered by the same 3.7L V6 Twin Turbo engine (VQ37DETT) as the Nissan R35 GT-R. The electric motor produces 158 hp and combinely, a total of 592 hp and an estimated combined torque at 1088 Nm.

Even with such high power, Infinity claim that the Essence can do 12.5km on every liter on petrol. Wow!

Is everything that are said is true, this Infiniti Essence might just be the No.1 competitor of its cousin, the Nissan R35 GTR.
