The G37 was Infiniti’s performance-oriented G-series successor to the G35, and it marked the brand’s move to a larger-displacement V6 family across its compact luxury lineup. For the 2009 model year, the nameplate arrived as a coupe and was then extended to the award-winning sport sedan and a convertible, giving the badge a rare three-body-style presence in one generation. Infiniti positioned it as a driver-focused luxury car with rear-wheel-drive roots, available all-wheel drive on certain versions, and a strong emphasis on handling, design, and everyday usability rather than outright track specialization.
In Infiniti’s own history pages, the G37 is remembered as a model that helped define the brand’s sport-sedan image and broadened its enthusiast appeal. The coupe’s arrival gave the nameplate a more dramatic, performance-car character, while the sedan became the best-known version and served as a benchmark for Infiniti’s mid-size luxury offerings. The convertible added a more lifestyle-oriented interpretation without abandoning the model’s performance identity.
The nameplate was discontinued after the 2013 model year, when Infiniti transitioned its sedan range to the Q50 and its coupe lineage toward the Q60. Because the G37 was a single continuous production run with no later revival, it stands as a one-generation nameplate that bridged Infiniti’s G-series era and the company’s later Q naming strategy.
