You probably already love INFINITI vehicles if you’re reading this column, but do you know much about the brand’s history? For instance, were you aware that the automaker developed the predecessor to its powerful Twin Turbo V6 engine all the way back in 1955?
INFINITI developed the VQ in 1955, and it ranked as one of Ward’s 10 Best Engines for the next 14 years. This is no small feat, so the brand knew it was on to something special. From these humble beginnings, the V6 was born.
The Twin Turbo V6 is a strong, performance-driven engine meant to make your every moment behind the wheel a thrilling one. Today’s models are clean and use 3.0-liter technology to provide either 300 or 400 horsepower. You’ll enjoy immediate acceleration, too.
The turbo aspect of this engine allows the turbines to reach 222,000 RPM. Even better, water-cooled air is channeled through the system. Since it’s more oxygen-rich, you won’t deal with irritating lag as you accelerate.
The Twin Turbo V6 is currently available in INFINITI’s Q50 and Q60. Don’t miss your chance to take a thrilling test drive with one of the beautiful vehicles. Stop by our Tacoma dealership today!Â
