Infiniti got on the newsreel to announce that they’ll be bringing some updated Q70 sedans and QX80 SUVs to the New York Auto Show later this week, featuring revisions equating to mid-cycle refreshes.

Following Infiniti’s recent nomenclature makeover, the Infiniti Q70 was formerly the M performance sedan while the QX80 was once the QX56.

The Q70 will still be offered with a Nissan-sourced 3.7L V6 good for 330hp while an optional 5.6L 420hp V8 is also optional, channeling power to either the rear or all-four wheels.

The QX80 will still be equipped with the brand’s 5.6L V8, the same found in the lesser Nissan Titan and Armada trucks.
