Infiniti is not really the sort of brand you really associate with motorsport, but Nissan's luxury arm is increasingly paddling in the shallows of the motorsport pool. The latest dip-of-toe is into rallying, where a G37 S coupe will be the 'Work Car Zero' (essentially a course car) for the Rallies Championship of Spain.
Infiniti has in the past supplied (or at least labelled) engines for the Indy Racing League back in the 90s, and also sponsors the Red bull F1 team, but rallying is new territory.
Now, a cruis-ey GT might not seem like the ideal choice for a rally course car, but the model supplied to the Royal Spanish Motorsport Federation is the six-speed manual, and offers 320hp, a decent 266lb ft of torque and a standard limited-slip diff, so it's perhaps more apt to such a role than you might expect.
The Infiniti Car Zero also has a few modifications to help it in its rallying role, including a roll cage, Bilstein dampers, uprated brake pads, Sparco racing seats and harnesses, an on-board fire extinguisher system and Michelin Pilot SuperSport tyres. Oh, and some extra headlights and a rather natty paint job.
