2015 Infiniti Q70 European Pricing Announced, Starts at €47,750

Q70 what? In case you didn’t know already, Infiniti renamed its entire lineup in 2014 in a manner that reflects every model’s position in the range. Alas, the M family became the Q70. Already available in the US, now’s Europe turn to get the luxury sedan.

European order books for the 2015 Infiniti Q70 have opened, with the Japanese executive sedan sporting a starting price of €47,750. There are 8 models in the Q70 family in total, with the most expensive of the lot being the 320 horsepower 3.7-liter V6 petrol-fed variant with the Sport Tech trim (€65,100).

As for the cheapest Infiniti Q70 around, that benefits from a 2.2-liter turbo diesel mill from Mercedes-Benz. The 170 horsepower and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) of torque engine is replacing an old Renault 3.0 V6.

Five specs are available: the basic one without a name, Premium, Premium Tech, Sport and Sport Tech

Those that new even more standard kit can go for the lavish Executive trim level, which adds everything you expect such a car to boast with. If you want to evade some taxation and be friendly to the environment as well, then you might be interested by the hybrid variant of the Q70, which mates a 3.5-liter V6 petrol and an electric motor for a total output of 364 horsepower and 620 Nm (457 lb-ft).

Due to the competitive segment the 2015 Infiniti Q70 is slotted in, the BMW 5 Series-rivaling sedan offers a wide selection of options. With LED headlights offered as standard among many other useful features, don’t go overboard with the kitting. Heaps of optional equipment hikes the already high price tag even higher, rendering the 2015 Q70 an uninspired buy compared to the German Teutonic trio.
