The 2015 model-year vehicles are getting refreshes for the 2015 model-year. The Q70 (formerly the M models) will see the most dramatic updates with a fresh front and rear body style and a new long-wheelbase model. The Q70 will be available with either a 3.79L V-6 generating 330 horsepower or a 5.6L V-8 providing 420 hp. The full-size sedan also adds five inches of legroom.
The QX80 (formerly the QX) will have revised exterior and interior trim. Infiniti is also introducing a new high-end QX80 Limited model with appointments such as soft-touch leather seating, open-pore wood trim, and dark-accent trim on the exterior.
