It later on made its way to the Geneva Motor Show 2014 and sported a Turbocharged V6 engine borrowed from GT-R, it was further modified and tuned to increase performance.

Infiniti extracted 560 horsepower along with 443 pound feet of peak torque. This was still in concept stage and would not make it to the production stage.
