Self-shifting Volvos now more efficient, the Infiniti range is being renamed and the cost of ticking options on a Bentley Mulsanne. Volvo has introduced a raft of efficiency-boosting measures for its automatic models. The changes bring the Geartronic-equipped S80 and V70, as well as D3 and D4 variants of the S60 and V60, under 130g/km. The XC60 SUV also benefits from reduced CO2 and better fuel consumption. The new naming scheme for Infiniti – saloons/coupes becoming Q and SUVs QX – was largely dictated by the future expansion of its range, including the new front-wheel-drive compact model. The EX and FX SUVs will be the QX50 and QX70 respectively, whilst the G-series cars become the Q60. The average invoice price of a Bentley Mulsanne saloon is 300,000. This means that a typical Mulsanne buyer spends the price of a base Range Rover - 70k – on bespoke trims, wood, leather and luxury add-ons.
