Meet the Infiniti QX90, a luxury sedan that is a more fluid evolution of the Tesla Cybertruck

The Infiniti QX90 2028 is designed to meet urban commute – by allowing you to easily switch between driving and relaxing mode.

Elon Musk claims that Tesla will have Level 5 autonomy by the end of 2021 – quite a bold statement given the extremity of AI and technological input required to achieve this feat. That means we will have a fully self-driving vehicle without any human assistance – virtually eliminating the need to fit a steering wheel inside the car. On the other hand, this concept empowers the person driving the vehicle and gives the rider complete freedom of operating modes.

Designer Johnny Jiang gives preference to human judgment while driving a vehicle – and the Infiniti QX90 2028 concept is a testament to that vision. The car’s design focuses on improving commuting by focusing on five key elements. The de-materialization, customization as per user’s needs, the experience of the driver and fellow riders, technological infusion for better function, and facilities that cater to individual needs – giving you the most comfortable drive possible.

The interiors of this sedan have a lounge-like space with a panoramic glass roof for an ultimate relaxing drive. The rear passenger seats can make a complete 180 degrees turn for an improved view or help socialize. The exteriors have a futuristic vibe going with the sharp design lines and a flowing aesthetic, striking a balance between the front and the rear. It’s this edginess merging with the fluidity that gives this car an evolved Cybertruck vibe.

The semi-autonomous vehicle adapts Level 4.5 autonomy, and it’ll have an AI companion if the driver has an emergency or is unable to drive. In addition, the intelligent cloud-based database enables functions like finding the apt parking space in an expansive parking lot to save time. For the driving experience, AI senses the driver’s emotional state, changing the interior ambiance and music to go into a softer mode.

The ability to choose the level of autonomous drive gives the car unique flexibility. Right from the adrenaline rush of zooming on a highway in manual mode to the autonomous mode for the times when you want to sit back and enjoy the view – this car gives you the best of both worlds.

This INFINITI-inspired car’s fluid design promises a high octane racing experience!

INFINITI Motor Company, a luxury vehicle division of the Japanese automaker Nissan isn’t in the most optimum state right now, but the brand has made vital inroads in the automotive market in the past decades since its first car rolled off the manufacturing lines in 1989. That isn’t stopping creative automotive designers like Daniel Platek from using the brand image to culminate their design iterations for dream-like futuristic supercars. The designer has envisioned this INFINITI QF Inspiration Concept that’s dominated by sleek flowing lines and the sublime charm of a racetrack-worthy four-wheeler.

Daniel has put together the design of this supercar of the future, keeping in mind the brand’s bold design language and the technological advancement of automotive design. Although Daniel doesn’t narrow down on much of the details, the concept car has to be propelled forward using the electric drivetrain sitting under the hood or on the rear boot. The aerodynamic character of the QF Inspiration is evident from its very low-ride height design of just a few inches, making it suited only for racetracks or highways where the tarmac is as clean as a whistle. The balance of the concept from the front to the rear end is enchanting – you’ll actually want to see one go past you in reality.

On the inside, the single-seated driving position further strengthens the racing character, highlighted by the F1-like seating position and the steering wheel taking up the INFINITI logo’s shape. The compact console shows all the vital telemetry, and the white interiors keep things clean visually. Overall, the concept manages to capture the brand’s vivid past and tries to reimagine a supercar that’ll again set it on a path of resurrection!
