The new 2012 INFINITI M35h will challenge drivers to rethink everything they think they know about hybrids when it hits Canadian streets late spring. As the first hybrid vehicle to carry the mantle of INFINITI’s Inspired Performance, luxury sedan buyers no longer need to think about “compromise” when considering a hybrid.
What makes what was previously thought impossible possible is the INFINITI M Hybrid’s unprecedented balance of power, luxury and efficiency. The groundbreaking new luxury performance hybrid will be offered, fully loaded at an MSRP of $67,300.
“Inspired by the design and hybrid technology found in the breakthrough INFINITI Essence concept, the new M Hybrid offers all the performance and luxury you expect from INFINITI, with the added benefit of one of the most sophisticated hybrid technologies available,” said Wendy Durward, Director, INFINITI Canada. “The M Hybrid offers V8 power and 4-cylinder fuel economy, so with INFINITI’s Inspired Performance you really can have it all.”
The innovative one-motor, two-clutch parallel hybrid system in the INFINITI M35h delivers thrilling performance and is capable of driving in pure electric mode at speeds up to 100 km/h. Utilizing the INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid™ system, the advanced 3.5-litre V6 engine, 50kW electric motor, connected to an electronic 7-speed automatic transmission, helps achieve estimated best in class combined fuel economy of 6.9L/100 km.
Inside, the INFINITI M35h maintains the INFINITI M Sedan’s engaging driving feel and presents an extensive array of standard comfort and convenience features. For the exterior, a lustrous 3-coat Aspen Pearl paint is available at a price of $300.
