If Infiniti Made a Hybrid 592 HP GT-R: The Essence

By Ben Schaffer

The Real JDM

No this is not a GT-R with a hybrid engine…but it might be the closest thing we’ll see to it.

Check out the Infiniti Essence, which as Autoblog reports, is “powered by a twin-turbo, direct-injection 3.7-liter V6 and a new electric drive design dubbed “3D Motor”, the Essence yields a combined 592 brake horsepower (434 via internal-combustion, 158 brake horsepower via the lithium-ion backed disc-shaped electric motor).

I think this is a pretty great concept car! I felt it was worth of sharing with you all. It feels to me like a morph of a R35 GT-R and an Aston Martin.
