Infiniti announced a new product nomenclature scheme where all sedans and coupes will carry a “Q” prefix while all crossovers and SUVs will carry a “QX” prefix. Instead of numbers indicating engine displacement after the prefix, the two digits would be used to indicate where in the brand’s hierarchy the model falls. The first model to follow this scheme was the Q50. The rest of the line was later transitioned to the new scheme for the 2014 model year.
