There have been rumors that Nissan, Infiniti’s parent company is working on a new entry-level Infiniti coupe that would compete the new BMW 1-Series.

Shiro Nakamura, global design director for Nissan Motor Co., claims that there is demand for a coupe smaller than the G37 outside the US, but the automaker is still studying the segment and the new coupe could be at least three years away.

It is rumored that Infiniti is going to unveil a small Infiniti coupe at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show to gauge public’s reactions. If the car is given the green light expect it to feature rear-wheel-drive and power could come from a 2.5L V6.
