Infiniti Q30 concept aims for the global sweet spot between sedans and SUVs

If you took the trend lines in sales from the world's car buyers and project them forward several years, you'd safely assume that sedans and small SUVs will dominate from Beijing to Brooklyn. If you're a product planner at Infiniti charged with winning owners of BMWs and Audis who don't know your cars exist, you might take those trends and try to merge them into a single model, something that's taller than a sedan and sleeker than a SUV.

Which is exactly what Infiniti plans to do, as shown by the Q30 concept unveiled at the Frankfurt auto show.
