Среднеразмерный премиум-класс: противостояние "made in Japan". Infiniti vs Lexus

До открытия Детройтского автосалона осталось менее двух недель - но уже сейчас известно, что на стендах Infiniti и Lexus развернется нешуточная борьба за покупателя.

 

Если точнее, на Североамериканское автошоу намечен дебют новой Infiniti Q50 и Lexus IS - т.е. моделей, которые будут конкурировать с Audi A4, BMW 3-series и 4-series и Mercedes C-Class.
Чего же ждать от новой волны японского среднеразмерного премиума?
Начнем с Infiniti.
Если индекс Q50 привел Вас в замешательство, напомним: согласно новой индексации брэнда, с 2013 года все седаны, купе и кабриолеты будут обозначаться буквой Q и цифровым индексом, а кроссоверы и внедорожники - буквами QX с цифровой приставкой. Так, семейство моделей, которое придет на смену Infiniti серии G, называется Q50-Q60 - в зависимости от типа кузова.
Глава Infiniti Йохан де Нисшен в начале осени открыто говорил о том, что на внешность и оформление интерьера седана Infiniti Q50 повлиял стайлинг концепта Infiniti Emerg_e Sports Car (заглавная иллюстрация и фото ниже), который показали в прошлом году в Женеве. Да и Широ Накамура, отвечающий за внешность марки, тогда же сообщил, что внешне преемник серии G будет намного более спортивным и динамичным.


Что касается техники, то поскольку машина будет соперничать с "большой немецкой тройкой", создавали ее в соответствии с теми требованиями, которые предъявляют европейцы к автомобилям этого класса. Управляемость, например, доводили до ума на Нюрбургринге. По предварительным данным, автомобиль будет обладать увеличенной колесной базой, но вот увеличатся ли его общие габариты? Посмотрим. 
Купе и кабриолет Infiniti Q60 будут противостоять новой BMW 4-series, т.е. японцы и немцы почти одновременно выпускают на рынок двухдверные модели под индивидуальным обозначением.

И очень хотелось бы верить, что как Q50, так и Q60 будут выполнены в стиле концепта Emerg_e Sports Car. Хотя тизер, показанный Infiniti, напоминает скорее о LE Concept, показанном в прошлом году на мотор-шоу в Нью-Йорке. Судите сами: ниже - оптика Infiniti Q50...

 

...а это - фары Infiniti LE Concept:

 

Сам концепт и его интерьер выглядят вот так:

Согласитесь: по сравнению с внешностью интерьер смотрится намного выгоднее.

А что же новый Lexus IS?
Автомобиль приходит на смену второму поколению IS, которое выпускается с августа 2005 года. Для того, чтобы представить, какой будет внешность новичка, стоит вспомнить довольно агрессивный внешне концепт Lexus LF-CC, показанный минувшей осень на Парижском автосалоне.

Собственно, дизайн-менеджер Lexus Такеши Танабе и не думает прятаться за дипломатичными фразами: "мы должны бросить им вызов" - так он говорит о конкурентах. Хотя, правильнее все-таки было бы сказать, что в Lexus собираются достойно ответить на вызов, брошенный BMW 3-series - нынешним "номером 1" в среднеразмерном премиум-классе.
Интерьер нового
Lexus IS будет выдержан в стиле, который задал хэтчбек СТ200h (что, кстати, подтверждает и концептуальный LF-CC - сравните стилевую направленность оформления салонов):


Наконец, учитывая тенденцию выделения двухдверных модификаций в самостоятельное семейство, в Lexus подумывают и над тем, чтобы запустить в производство купе на базе нового IS, которое будет конкурировать с BMW 4-series и Infiniti Q60. Само собой, название у этой модели будет уже не IS...   
Напомним: Lexus IS образца 2005 года оснащен 4-цилиндровыми дизельными и V-образными 6-цилиндровыми атмосферными бензиновыми моторами, привод - или на заднюю ось или на все четыре колеса. Топ-версия - это Lexus IS F (на фото ниже), под капотом у которого расположен бензиновый атмосферный V8 объемом 5 литров и мощностью 417 л.с.

В этой связи стоит отметить, что Q50 и новый IS представляют отдельный интерес с точки зрения гаммы силовых установок, поскольку подход тут абсолютно разный.
Новая среднеразмерная Infiniti будет оснащаться только 4-цилиндровыми бензиновыми и дизельными двигателями. Таким образом, можно говорить сразу о двух моментах:
- люксовое подразделение Nissan не изменило свои планы и проводит политику даунсайзинга своих моторов (в сентябре'2012 стало известно, что Infiniti отказывается от разработки новых V8 и в дальнейшем планирует полностью заменить их высокомощными V6)  
- Infiniti Q50 получает моторы, созданные в рамках договоренности между Daimler и Renault-Nissan, достигнутой весной 2010 года. По предварительным данным, одним из следующих шагов по сокращению издержек внутри альянса Daimler-Renault-Nissan станут поставки двигателей AMG для модели Q70 (она придет на смену Infiniti серии М, на которую, кстати, сейчас ставят 5.6-литровый V8, развивающий 420 л.с. и 565Нм).

Что же в таком случае собираются предложить парни из Lexus для нового IS?
На данный момент известно, что машину планируют оснащать бензиновыми моторами объемом 2.5 литра - причем, 4-цилиндровый вариант будет гибридным, а вот V6 - традиционным атмосферным.
Больше говорить о моторах пока не будем - до официального дебюта осталось не так много, так что подождем. Предположим лишь, что учитывая раздумья Lexus над версией купе, новый IS лишится версии F - скорее всего, топ-моделью будет все-таки двухдверная машина под новым названием.


Продажи Infiniti Q50 в начнуться осенью (о точных сроках появления машины в Европе можно будет говорить после дебюта), примерно на тот же период намечен и рыночный старт нового Lexus IS.  

Таким образом, японцы бросаются вдогонку за баварской "трешкой", шестое поколение которой дебютировало в конце 2011 года - и по идее появятся в европейских шоу-румах аккурат к дебюту четвертого поколения Mercedes C-Class, премьера которого должна состояться на Женевском автосалоне'2014 (нынешний C-Class выпускается с начала 2007 года и уже прошел обновление).

Остается дождаться новостей от "властелинов колец" из Ингольштадта, ведь
актуальная А4 поколения В8 дебютировала во Франкфурте осенью-2007, так что смена поколений тоже не за горами. Это значит, что Audi включится в новый раунд борьбы, уже взвесив, какие из качеств, предложенных среднеразмерными BMW, Infiniti и Lexus наиболее востребованы покупателем.
