Wouldn't mind the wait if they could just give us a deadline like they did with the 2020 GTR. Or at least something concrete in terms of the platform (though the power plant is most definitely going to be the 3.0 which is cool with me).

Infiniti Announces New 3.0-liter V6 Twin-Turbo Engine – the Most Advanced V6 Ever Offered by Infiniti

• New VR-series engine becomes the lightest, most powerful, cleanest and most fuel-efficient V6 engine that Infiniti has ever offered
• Two power outputs available: 400 or 300 horsepower
• Series of technical innovations enhance drivability and performance
• Compact layout features new integrated exhaust manifold
• The 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine family will first be available in the 2016 Infiniti Q50 sports sedan

NASHVILLE (Dec. 15, 2015) – Infiniti's new compact, lightweight 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine is the most advanced V6 engine that the brand has ever offered, striking an ideal balance between drivability, efficiency, and performance.

The 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo is an all-new engine from the new and exclusive VR- series powertrain family, born out of the brand's longstanding heritage of V6 powertrain production. The new engine has been engineered to empower the driver and offer increased power and torque and higher levels of efficiency than any comparable predecessors from the company.

The engine's reduced weight and contained size is credited, in part, to a lighter and more compact cylinder block. The result is greater mechanical efficiency, while a series of new features and in-house innovations secure superior performance.

Selected Infiniti models will be equipped with the all-new 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo from 2016 onwards, with the engine available in two performance levels – 300 or 400 horsepower. Both engines share the same technologies and offer the same unrivalled sensation of potent and immediate power delivery.

The most advanced V6 engine Infiniti has ever offered

The all-new VR-series 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engines deliver a compelling combination of drivability, efficiency, and performance. The VR engines will be used in new Infiniti models that have been engineered to satisfy every Infiniti market worldwide, signaling the growing presence of the brand globally.

The all-new 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine was created through extensive in- house experience of six-cylinder powertrain development and backed up by a strong history of V6 engine production. The VQ-series V6 powertrain family, predecessor to VR, has been a long-established and multi-award winning series of engines that has appeared in Infiniti models since 1994. For fourteen years, from 1995 to 2008, this VQ engine was listed as one of "Ward's 10 Best Engines," an unrivalled achievement.

This no doubt will also be the basic engine layout with some tweaks of course for the R36 before the Hybrid power is added

Looks like it uses an air to water intercooler setup. I bet it won't be long before the aftermarket scraps that in place of a nice front mount

If this isn't in a Z, then I see a Q50 in my future

MC

as obsessed as nissan is with platform/engine sharing for cost considerations I cant see it not being the Z engine

Those intercoolers just look weird haha

MC

first thought is while innovative could be a choke point for higher power applications
