Infiniti confirms convertible plans

Infiniti has confirmed it will add the G37 Convertible to its model line-up next summer.

The brand, Nissan's upmarket offshoot, will launch in Britain next spring.

The G37 Convertible is powered by a 316bhp, 3.7-litre V6 petrol engine, and has a three-piece retractable hard-top roof.

Buyers will be able to choose between the standard six-speed manual gearbox or an optional seven-speed automatic gearbox with a paddle-shift system.

Full details of the car will be announced at the Los Angeles motor show next month.
