Nissan’s first Hybrid system will make its debut in the Infinity M35 Hybrid, along with the Infinity Performance Line G Coupe.

Nissan has also announced that its first-in-house Hybrid system, which was shown in the Nissan Fuga Hybrid at last year’s Tokyo Motor Show, will also power the 2012 Infinity M35 Hybrid.

The new Hybrid system, which is expected to make its debut at this fall’s LA Auto Show, uses an Atkinson-cycle version of Nissan claims “the power of a V8, with the fuel economy of a 4-cylinder”. However, no power output, or performance details have been released.

In Japan, the Hybrid-powered Nissan-Fuga will go on sale this fall, while the Infinity M Hybrid won’t be available until next year.

Infinity also plans to unveil the new 2011 IPL G Coupe at the LA Auto Show.

In the new Infinity Performance Line, the G Coupé will be the first model, which is powered by a 348-hp version of the 3.7 litre V6, and features a sport-tuned suspension, special wheels, and unique IPL interior and exterior treatments.
