The concept has a very flexible architecture and can even support supercharged electrified powertrains. Furthermore, it also presented its team of designers, led by the company’s executive design director, Karim Habib, the opportunity to give the sedan’s conventional three-box design an uplift by incorporating it with new exterior dimensions, as well as a spacious and comfortable lounge-inspired interior.

It is also confirmed that the upcoming electrified model will have the new form language of INFINITI. The concept draws inspiration from the brand’s Japanese heritage and can be clearly seen in their exhibition area, which was a collaboration with Kengo Kuma, a well-known Japanese architect. The design of the showcase area is a fusion of the latest Qs Inspiration model concept and the design direction of the company’s electrified line up. This will also be showcased on other major auto exhibits in the near future.

According to the senior vice president for Global Design of Nissan Motor Company, Alfonso Albaisa, “As designers, we are constantly inspired by the technology of our engineers and the Japanese design influences which are part of our DNA,” he also added that, “Here in Shanghai, we have not been alone on this journey. I am very honored to have had Kengo Kuma as a ‘sensei,’ helping us evolve and express a new language in our company architecture. In Shanghai, we reveal our Kuma-san-designed INFINITI booth, expressing new visual poetry, harmony, and innovation.”

The reveal of the Qs Inspiration Concept coincides with the announcement of INFINITI that the production of their first-gen electrified models will be in China where it will be made available first hand as well.

Christian Meunier, INFINITI’s Motor Company chairman said that “China has the most growth potential for electric vehicles globally, especially in the premium segment. The age of electrification presents us with an opportunity to renew our credentials as an innovative challenger brand, ready to move quickly and decisively in this growing and exciting area of the market.”

The electrification move of INFINITI will present the company with the opportunity to reinvent its brand globally by offering low-emission vehicles that have the power and performance to provide drivers with exciting driving experience.
