"Infiniti and Red Bull have found amazing success in their Formula One partnership. In an exercise to bring that success to their consumer cars, the Q50 Eau Rouge was created as a concept. Named after one of the most challenging corners in modern racing, the Eau Rouge concept vehicle represents the luxury Infiniti customers are used to, infused with the raw aggression of Red Bull Racing. The Q50 sports a functional, downforce-enhancing carbon fiber front splitter and rear bumper with integrated diffuser. All around are 10-millimeter wider fenders to accommodate a larger contact patch. Throughout the Eau Rouge you will find bespoke carbon fiber and aluminum bits that contribute to its looks and performance. Underneath the hood is the proof that this Q50 isn’t just a head turner. Powering this super-sedan is the 3.8-liter V6 from the Nissan GT-R, with two mammoth turbos helping it achieve massive horsepower numbers. All-wheel drive helps put that power to the ground. Those other high-end performance sedan-makers can consider this a warning shot because, should the Eau Rouge go into production, the competition will be running for cover."—Official description[1]
The 2014 Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge - abbreviated as "Infiniti Q50" - is an all-wheel drive concept sport sedan by Infiniti.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 5 as part of the Infiniti Car Pack, which debuted in the 2014 August Content Update[2], and as standard in all subsequent main series titles except Forza Horizon 2 and Forza Horizon 5.
Synopsis[]
Intended to showcase Infiniti's plans for competing against sports saloons to the likeness of the BMW M5, the Q50 Eau Rouge was co-developed with Formula One team Red Bull Racing.
It is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that is also used by the Nissan GT-R supercar.
Performance[]
The Q50 combines above average straight-line performance along with strong handling characteristics. It launches from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in under 4 seconds with no wheelspin and can top out speeds higher than 210 mph (338 km/h).
It also rarely loses grip in corners due to the AWD drivetrain, but tends to kick its rear out if pushed too hard.
