PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – INFINITI returns to the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance as the company continues the celebration of its 30th anniversary. As a part of this milestone, INFINITI will introduce its EDITION 30 models, a line of specially equipped vehicles that highlight the company's 30-year legacy, in the U.S. Additionally, throughout the weekend INFINITI will showcase its vision for its future showroom while also honoring the company's heritage at the Japanese Automotive Invitational.
INFINITI debuts EDITION 30 models
In celebration of its 30th anniversary, INFINITI will introduce its EDITION 30 line of specially equipped models at the 2019 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. On display at the INFINITI Pavilion throughout the weekend, the EDITION 30 line includes specially trimmed versions of the Q50, Q60, QX50, QX60 and QX80. These vehicles feature exclusive exterior design touches, and they include as standard a collection of the world's first driver assistance technologies that INFINITI has brought to market.
The INFINITI EDITION 30 line will arrive at retailers in the U.S. in the fall of 2019 as 2020 models. More details on these vehicles will be available closer to on-sale date.
INFINITI previews its future showroom
From the beginning, INFINITI has worked to redefine the relationship between car and driver, starting with the customer experience in the showroom. When INFINITI arrived on the market, other luxury brands at that time were perceived as unattainable, and INFINITI seized the opportunity to champion a more inclusive environment with a distinctively warm and welcoming atmosphere that continues to draw people in today.
The Inspiration line offers a preview of forthcoming production models, as well as a glimpse into the company's vision to blend performance and electrification. The advent of electrified platforms heralds a fresh approach to what crossovers and sedans could look like. With new exterior proportions, electrified powertrains allow for additional interior space, enabling spacious and lounge-like interiors.
INFINITI celebrates heritage at second-annual Japanese Automotive Invitational
For the second consecutive year, INFINITI, in collaboration with MotorTrend Group, will host the Japanese Automotive Invitational. Bringing even more diversity to the premier automobile celebration, this special event is dedicated to Japanese automotive innovation, design, performance and rich car culture.
This year's Invitational will showcase 54 historically significant Japanese cars in eight different categories: Race, Truck, Roadster, GT, Hot Hatch, Sports, Luxury and Sedan. INFINITI vehicles on display include:
- 1993 INFINITI Q45t: Introduced as the flagship luxury sedan to launch the INFINITI brand in 1989, the Q45's distinctive minimalist styling featured a confident design that allowed it to do away with traditional cues like oversized front grilles and exotic wood interiors.
- 1991 INFINITI M30: As a companion to the Q45 sedan, the M30 was part of INFINITI's launch in 1989.
- 1994 INFINITI J30: For the 1994 model year, INFINITI introduced its second luxury sedan, the J30.
- 2004 INFINITI G Coupe: For almost as long as there has been an INFINITI Motor Company, a sports coupe has been integral to its model line.
- 2003 INFINITI FX45: At its debut in 2003, the INFINITI FX became one of the industry's first performance crossovers.
- The evolution of the INFINITI performance coupe: Visitors to this year's Japanese Automotive Invitational will also get to see the iconic and influential 1963 Prince Skyline Sport. The Prince Motor Company, arguably Japan's first luxury automotive brand, launched the legendary Skyline sedan and wagon in 1957 and added the Gloria luxury sedan in 1959. Prince later merged with Nissan Motor Company, Ltd. in 1965 and influenced the dynamic styling found on INFINITI vehicles today.
