Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge: wider, sturdier, lighter

Infiniti gave in Detroit a special Q50 in store for us, with Red Bull Racing there is completely over written. This is Eau Rouge, from all angles, packed with carbon, and with a ridiculous stop, F12berlinetta-style. Really, Infiniti?
If we are the last faux pas apart, there is a pretty tough Q50-opschepper. It rolls on lightweight forged 21 inchers with perforated Brembo-paste, and is equipped with a bespoke high gloss red versions. Bumpers, side skirts and mirror covers are all in carbon carried out, and the roof is made of lightweight carbon composite.
In the hood thick ventilation holes, and the track width increased by 20 mm compared to the normal Q50. This is the full increase in width. Inside we find metallic-coated fiberglass panels to the centre console and doors, with zwartchromen accents. Also a set of F1-style up / down shifters may not be missing.
Performance
“Well, that must be the big fat world-the specs cause’ I can hear you thinking. Yes, well! Just hangs Infiniti there are no specs. Oh, Infiniti, you tease, you… Be late CEO Johan de Nysschen los that a possible production model a engine in V-shape with supercharging would get:
“If we built this car I would expect it to feature over 500hp and 600lb/ft or torque. Through our various alliance partners we have access to a range of engines featuring this performance capability which, with a fair amount of engineering effort, can be developed to exhibit Infiniti character and accommodated within the Q50 engine bay. The engine we are evaluating for the Q50 Eau Rouge is a big personality, V-cylinder engine with forced induction. I think our engineers have been waiting for a project like this.”
Beautiful. Yet we must, however, set with fapplaatjes of the Infiniti, which is named after the well-known bochtencombinatie at the circuit of Spa-Francorchamps. Betting that we’re Sebastian Vettel frequently when this red monster?
