Infiniti Tries to Scare Us with New Q50 Sedan's Angry Looking Headlamps

|

After sharing the news about its new badging theme that will see all 2014 models gaining a 'Q' in their name, Infiniti has presented an official teaser video of the first car to adopt this naming strategy, the Q50.

And what exactly is the Q50, we hear some of you ask? Well, it’s the car that will replace the current G series sedan and which will be formally introduced in a world premiere at January's 2013 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.

The short video clip opens and closes with a glimpse of the BMW 3-Series-rivaling sedan's rather menacing looking headlamps that appear to feature an LED accent wave (or eyebrow strip, take your pick) running the entire length of its top end.

Looks more aggressive that what we've seen so far of the upcoming IS however the menacing headlights may turn some off (I agree with the Optimus Prime comparison). I hope Infiniti can pull a winning lineup together as its sorely missing models in the large sedan category and the new (silly) naming strategy/model forecast dashes hopes of a Q45 replacement.

Some people must frighten easy. This looks attractive enough. I'll be happy to see the LED fad subside, though...
