Here Come The Concepts 2 - Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge

Infiniti has revealed the first image of the Q50 Eau Rouge concept which will have its world premiere at the 2014 North American International Auto Show in Detroit on 13th January.

The Q50 Eau Rouge, a high-performance design concept based on Infiniti’s Q50 premium sports saloon, draws inspiration for aerodynamic design from the technical collaboration between Infiniti and four-time Formula One World Champions Infiniti Red Bull Racing. Major bodywork components have been redesigned with aerodynamics in mind and manufactured in carbon fibre. Q50 Eau Rouge is lower and wider – only the roof and door profiles remain unchanged from the production Q50. This striking design is inspired by muscularity, refinement, and understated performance intent (but not the hyperbole).

Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge highlights include deep and detailed carbon fibre front splitter, rear diffuser and side sill skirts; carbon fibre roof and door mirror casings. All this sitting on 21” lightweight forged alloy wheels with a dual-exit exhaust sports system below a large integrated rear spoiler. The question as ever is - will it be produced?
