Infiniti G37 S road test
You could be excused for never hearing of Infiniti. The spin-off luxury brand is to Nissan what Lexus is to Toyota – a top-end Mercedes and BMW rival with a dash more individuality. Infiniti is no conservationist either. All variants of the G37 are fitted with a powerful but thirsty 3.7-litre V6 engine, so expect grunt and creature comforts aplenty.

Infiniti has modest aspirations for all of its cars in the UK. The company is only expecting sales in the hundreds within the first year, which, in the current climate, is a perfectly reasonable expectation and no doubt bosses will be pleased if they exceed their targets. Spec is extremely generous, as is safety gear. Reliability shouldn’t be a problem and there are old-fashioned big-car thrills by the bucketload, but it’s difficult to recommend an enormous, thirsty saloon at a time when cash is tighter than tight and downsizing is the order of the day. Though Infiniti’s range doesn’t officially go on sale in the UK until spring, it’s difficult to see the G37’s residuals outshining those of BMW and Mercedes. If, however, an average of 26.9mpg doesn’t bother you and you’re after something a little different from the usual European suspects, then G37 could be for you.
