At this year's Geneva Motor Show, Infiniti will be showing off an all-new range-extended sports car concept they've now named EMERG-E.
The press release is thin with information saying only, "The INFINITI EMERG-E will be the first car from the brand to have not only a range-extender drivetrain offering vivid performance with zero emissions capability but also one mounted in a mid-ship package for optimal handling."
The market for a mid-engined range-extended Infiniti seems small to me. I could be wrong, but let's just go ahead and assume that the EMERG-E will not make it out of the concept stage. We'll bring you more next month from Geneva.

The front looks like a Z4 and the back reminds me of a Cayman. I'm looking forward to seeing this car. I see a future comparison test Cadillac ELR vs Infiniti EMERG E. Awful name by the way.

Range extender JX please.
Nobody buys sports cars. 500 sales a year. What a waste of development money.
Unless this thing has 4 doors...

"vivid" performance...must be a VERY euphemistic way of saying it will perform ok (for a sports car; good for a range extender)
