As the brand’s flagship luxury sedan, the new 2018 INFINITI Q70 comes fully loaded with two top-of-the-line powertrains that deliver dynamic performance. Consumers are provided the luxury of choice and can select the option that best suits their needs and desires.
The first is a 3.7-liter 24-valve DOHC aluminum alloy V6. If that mouthful of words doesn’t mean anything to you, here’s what you need to know: It’s rated at 330 HP with 270 lb-ft. of torque. It also features a symmetric twin air intake system that provides superior flow and greater acceleration capabilities.Â
For those who desire a little more oomph in their ride, the 5.6-liter Direct Injection Gasoline V8 pushes fuel directly into the combustion chamber more precisely than other carburetors. It easily produces 420 HP with 417 lb-ft. of torque.Â
Both powertrains feature the advanced Variable Valve Event and Lift system which helps to improve both performance and response. Utilizing hydraulic-controlled timing processes combined with electronically managed consumption, the result is enhanced throttle response and improved emissions and fuel-efficiency. On the highway, the V6 and V8 earn an impressive 25 and 24 MPG, respectively.Â
