Rumors: Teaser—Infiniti Emerg-E

The 2012 Geneva Motor Show will be the place where we will finally see, in its entirety, the much teased Infiniti electric sports car concept, which we now know will be called the Emerg-E. With a mid-mounted electric powertain and sports car underpinnings, Infiniti is looking to blend sporting pretentions with “green” intentions. Like the Fisker Karma, the Emerg-E will be bringing high-tech automotive technology into an entirely different market—and likely a different tax bracket as well—than where the majority of electrified vehicles current sit.

Several teaser shots of the Emerg-E have been released over the past few months revealing design elements that seemed to have been inspired by Infiniti’s Essence GT concept vehicle, which was first shown at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. More shots of the Emerg E can be viewed on Carscoop.
