INFINITI puts premium hybrid power and the associated fuel savings at your fingertips and into your pocket, respectively, as a product of the immensely refined 2013 INFINITI M! Fuel conservation has never been sexier than it is with this mighty machine and its enthusiast-tailored powertrain.
We’ll start with that wonderful engine. This INFINITI masterpiece features a 3.5L V6 that works alongside a 376-volt lithium-ion battery, the latter of which being where the “hybrid†part of this equation comes in. Because of the 67 HP the battery provides, there’s a total powertrain output of a whopping 360 horses! Naturally, fuel economy is delightful at an EPA-estimated average MPG of 27 city / 32 highway.
The 2013 INFINITI M sports a manual mode for those that enjoy full control while driving. The car enables you to choose this experience simply by sliding the gear selector left into the shift gate. Once you do so, you have two operation options: moving the aforementioned selector up or down as desired (from 7th to 1st gear) or via pulling the paddle shifters mounted behind the steering wheel.
