Infiniti naming its range-extended electric sports car concept EMERG-E

Infiniti has named the advanced range-extended electric sports car concept it will unveil at the 82nd Geneva Motor Show EMERG-E.

The Infiniti EMERG-E will be the first car from the brand to have not only a range-extender drivetrain, but also one mounted in a mid-ship package for optimal handling. The mid-ship layout enables optimal weight distribution, at the same time facilitating a change in vocabulary for Infiniti’s design language.

Infiniti says its goal with the vehicle is to combine extreme, low emission open-road performance with zero emission operation in urban situations.
