Filed under: Sedan , BMW , Hyundai , Infiniti , Luxury 2011 Infiniti M – Click above for high-res image gallery The Infiniti M37 , Hyundai Genesis V8 and the BMW 5 Series were tested in the latest issue of Consumer Reports , and the results were fairly predictable. All three vehicles received ratings of “Excellent,” though each vehicle’s road to the top came from a different direction. The newly redesigned M37 remains CR’s top-rated midsize luxury sedan for its combination of performance, luxury and comfort. CR chief David Champion credits the M for combining “agile handling, a taut yet comfortable ride, and a beautifully-finished interior.” Solid praise, indeed

Filed under: Mercedes-Benz , Nissan , Renault 2011 Infiniti M56S – Click above for high-res image gallery Renault – Nissan and Daimler recently announced a strategic alliance that promised technology and facility sharing that could result in the saving of over $1 billion per year. We’ll have to wait a while before we can see any parts or factory sharing, but that isn’t stopping the rumormill from running rampant. The latest tease comes courtesy of Japanese enthusiast rag Best Car , which claims that the Infiniti M and G will share a common platform architecture with the Mercedes E-Class . The move would make sense from a money-saving perspective, as Infiniti could save hundreds of millions of dollars in development costs.

Report: Next Infiniti M and G to share platform with Mercedes-Benz E Class?
Filed under: Infiniti , Rumormill , Design/Style , Luxury These kind of conversations go on all the time. An automaker will consider variations on the theme of a particular model, and the rabid media will occasionally pick up a snippet of that chatter and blow it way out of proportion. We can’t say whether rumors of a two-door M coupe are reality or just spitballing, though many would argue that such a model is a necessity for success.
