he last time we had an Infiniti M in a comparison test — a 303-horsepower, seven-speed M35 S — it finished eighth… out of eight cars. Or, as the seven other luxury brands are happy to point out, dead last. For the 2011 model year, though, Infiniti has put to bed the last-place second-gen M and pulled out from under the covers a third gen that is more stylish, more powerful, more fuel-efficient, and more technologically advanced.
As you can tell, it’s got more of just about everything, a fact that will no doubt make it a formidable participant in the next shootout. But until we can amass another luxe-sedan showdown, let’s examine whether the 2011 M truly has the goods to be great.
The brand name M has been used on several mid-sized models from Infiniti. Some of the models include M35 sedan, M30 coupe and M45 sedan versions.
s with the GS, the new M offers V-6, V-8, and V-6/hybrid power, engine options that stack up nicely against the E's V-6, V-8, and upcoming BlueTEC diesel.
