Infiniti 2012 M® Hybrid
Uncompromised power and efficiency. Introducing the All-New 2012 Infiniti M® Hybrid.*Inspired by nature, we set out to craft a hybrid with the same harmonious coexistence of graceful power and quiet efficiency. Introducing the only vehicle delivering more than 350 hp and 30 mpg *. | |

3.5-L V6 HybridAn Uncompromised V6 Hybrid that Delivers V8 Power. Crafted patiently to deliver signature Infiniti performance, the Infiniti Direct Response Hybrid™ system features a 1-motor, 2-clutch parallel hybrid powertrain with a 7-speed automatic transmission. Precise, high-speed motor control technology lets you experience all 360 horsepower[*], allowing you to take your Infiniti M® Hybrid from 0 to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds. | Acceleration SwellExperience Sustained Exhilaration. Acceleration swell is our vision of power, dedicated to delivering a shape and feel beyond raw numbers. By tuning Infiniti engines to unleash torque that climbs over a broader rev range, the force you feel seems to increase the faster you go – building like the swell of a rising wave. The emotional energy surges in tandem, creating a limitless rush rather than a momentary thrill. |
Battery PowerMore Power, Refined Performance. At the heart of the Infiniti M® Hybrid is the innovative Lithium-Ion battery, providing for very fast switching between charge and discharge, and offering double the power density of older Nickel-Metal Hydride battery technology. This technology enables the M Hybrid to smoothly deliver unexpected performance with surprising efficiency. | Electric-Hydraulic SteeringNatural Steering Connects Driver to Road. Breathtaking switchback paths and the call of the open road can only be answered with precise control. Unlike other hybrids which deliver a detached steering feel from their pure electric power steering systems, the Infiniti M® Hybrid uses a unique hybrid electric power steering system that combines electric and hydraulic components to provide a familiar and natural steering feel. |

3.5-L V6 Hybrid PowertrainLess is more. A V6 Hybrid as Fuel Efficient as a Four-Cylinder.*Designed to be just as efficient as it is powerful, the Infiniti M® Hybrid utilizes a parallel hybrid system that enables the electric motor and gas engine to work simultaneously or individually. The M Hybrid can operate strictly in electric mode while driving at speeds up to 62 mph and coasting at speeds up to 85 mph[*].The Infiniti Direct Response Hybrid™ system ingeniously delivers the performance you demand from a luxury sport sedan while providing the efficiency you expect from an economy car. | Power SteeringIntuitive, Efficient Handling.Steering in the Infiniti M® Hybrid is controlled by a unique system that uses an electric motor to create hydraulic oil pressure, allowing the M Hybrid to maintain the familiar feel of a traditional power steering system while enhancing fuel economy |
Battery DesignHalf the Size, All the Power.A breakthrough not only in power, but efficiency. The Lithium-Ion battery found in the Infiniti M® Hybrid is lighter and more compact than traditional Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, enabling us to maintain M's spacious cabin while delivering more valuable trunk space than the Lexus GS 450h[*] – enough for four sets of golf clubs. | Regenerative BrakingBrakes that Help Keep Your Battery Charged.Within the graceful curves of the Infiniti M® Hybrid, an intelligent system is hard at work. When braking, energy that is normally lost is recaptured by the Regenerative Braking system to charge the Lithium-Ion battery, which helps improve the efficiency of the hybrid powertrain. |
