Infiniti Essence Concept 2 Infiniti Essence Future G Car

If you didn’t like that G37 car from Infiniti already, Infiniti definitely has an ace under its sleeves to throw at you.  The Infiniti Essence Concept will be definitely the car of the future for the Infiniti G series.  The dramatic smooth, curvy design of the Infiniti Essence is timeless yet sleek and out of this world.  All this is fitted with an abundance of technologies and performance of a 592-horsepower engine, which runs on both gasoline and electric hybrid systems.

The Essence Concept displays many of its new technologies in the exterior design as well the interior design from the engine to the cockpit.   The Essence Concept is equipped with a front-engine, two seat and rear wheel drive, and a measuring of 185 inches long from the nose to the rear.  The engine is a gasoline/electric hybrid driven, which is capable of high speeds when conditions allow, and generates zero emissions in light driving conditions.

The exterior is design of the Infinity Essence called the “Dynamic Adeyaka” with breathtaking curvature and fluid like shape to provide maximum aerodynamic. As you can see, one look at the Essence Concept makes you melt right into the car to become as one with the machine.  The hood is long and the rear deck is short to give a muscular look of a classic sports car like of the Corvette Stingray but at the same time looks welcoming, which lures you in and says “Come, drive me boy”.  My hands are trembled as I write this article, and can’t help myself to gaze and mesmerize by its beauty.

The interior design of the Essence is minimalist and ergonomic with the focus on giving the driver absolute control.  The asymmetrical cabin with a curve console towards the side of the driver between the seats that sweeps around to tapper off with the center dashboard; this is similar to the 1993-1997 Toyota Supra console.

With great power comes great responsibility.   The innovative green engine which produces 592 horsepower is designed to be sophisticated and unobtrusive manner.  The hybrid system is a groundbreaking green commitment from Infiniti. It offers power with efficiency and high performance by combining a gasoline engine with an electric motor. These two systems can work independently or together in “power assist” mode, the full 592 horsepower is let loose with both gasoline and electric power churning the crankshaft.

With so much power, you might think the Infiniti comes with a V8, not so.  Infiniti’s 3.7-liter DOHC V6 gasoline engine is fitted with twin turbochargers to boost power to 434 horsepower, and the remaining 158 horsepower is provided by the electric motor to feed power to rear wheels simultaneously when the petal hits the metal.

The Infinity Essence Concept is so elegant, so muscular, so well refined, and so environmental friendly that I would almost want to sell my house for it if it is available.
