The brand is also preparing two new crossovers.
Infiniti plans to roll out at least three new models before the end of the decade, according to Tiago Castro, vice president of Infiniti Americas. He says the lineup will include two crossovers and a revived sport sedan. The announcement comes at a time when Infiniti’s U.S. sales have slipped to some of the lowest levels among premium automakers — though Castro has already outlined how the brand intends to turn things around.
Back in 2015, Infiniti sold roughly 134,000 vehicles in the United States. By 2024, that number had fallen to about 58,000, and the brand is expected to finish the year closer to 50,000. Today, the U.S. lineup is essentially down to just the QX60 and QX80, with the QX50 family on its way out. Still, Castro insists Infiniti doesn’t need a catalog as broad as BMW’s or Lexus’s, nor should it chase the same sales volumes.
Instead of battling for bigger numbers, Infiniti intends to focus on product quality — raising owner satisfaction and doing more to keep customers within the brand. A well-planned range of five or six models across key segments, he says, is enough to run a profitable business.
Coming in 2026 is the QX65, conceived as a spiritual successor to the iconic FX, though it will ride on the current Rogue platform. In 2028, the lineup will expand with a hybrid all-wheel-drive SUV. Slotted between those launches is a new sedan already being positioned as the successor to the Q50.
Reports of the sedan’s comeback surfaced earlier through industry insiders, who pointed to a similar timeline — the second half of 2027. They claim the model will feature a gasoline V6, rear-wheel drive, and even an available manual transmission.
