Infiniti M35h Wards Top 10 Engine of 2012
2011-12-12
Infiniti luxury brand raises the bar with a hybrid-electric vehicle that is equal parts luxury flagship, sport sedan, fuel sipper and technology showpiece.
The Infiniti Direct Response Hybrid system in the M35h replaces the torque converter in the 7-speed automatic transmission with a single 50-kW (67 hp) electric motor linked to a powerful lithium-ion battery pack that allows frequent decoupling of the engine so the vehicle can run in electric mode at speeds above 70 mph (113 km/h) and easily achieve 30 mpg (7.8 L/100 km), based on WardsAuto testing.
Although pricey, the M35h trumps German luxury hybrid sedans that cost much more.
