According to a source close to Nissan, we have learned that the next Skyline coupe (Infiniti G37), which could arrive as early as 2012, will inherit a "sizeable" amount of design 'essence' from the, er, Essence. The news isn't exactly much of a surprise, as Infiniti has indicated its Essence concept, which first debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, serves as a bellwether of sorts for the brand's future design direction. Elements of the Essence can already be seen in Infiniti's recently revamped M sedan lineup.
Reportedly measuring roughly 186 x 77 x 52 inches and sitting on a 110-inch long wheelbase, the next G coupe's dimensions appear more practical for the real world than we originally thought when the covers were taken off the Essence for the first time at Geneva.
We also expect Nissan - which is pushing its green credentials hard as it prepares to launch its Leaf electric car - to fit the next G coupe with a hybrid powertrain option. Our source suggests that it is most likely to inherit a version of the 3.5-liter hybrid combination from the current Fuga (Infiniti M35) that develops around 360 total horsepower.
But now that Renault-Nissan has teamed up with Daimler, yet another source informs us that the new collaborative effort is also considering a diesel hybrid designed to further push the mileage and emissions envelope. If a diesel hybrid is indeed developed, we expect it to be for markets outside of the U.S.

hardly doubt that any of those features will make it on to the real car.
Inviniti is not about sharp edges and that is the only sharp edge you see on a drawing, kinda don't make any sense making a trunk like that when the rest of the car is nice and smooth everywhere.
