It looks very much like the Nissan 2020 VGT

Looking like its the same chassis with drastic differences to styling. Nissan going very sharp and angled Infinity looks more fluid & smooth. What is interesting is it reminds me of the connection between the GT-R and Skyline. The R35 GT-R separated its connection with the Skyline that previous GT-Rs had where the GT-R was a "Performance Package" of the Skyline. The R35 is built on its own chassis specifically designed for it & performance instead of building upon a regular car's chassis. The new Skyline platform became the G35/G37 from Nissan through Infinity
it looks like they went back to old ways but in reversed direction. Instead of building upon the Base Skyline to build the GT-R it appears they have taken the concept for the next GT-R and are using the GT-Rs chassis to build the next Infinity G series concept.
Obviously these are VGT Concepts and not actual future concepts for the GT-R or G Series. However its my opinion that the VGT cars in GT6 mean different things to the different Brands, I believe Nissan has been testing the waters for actual future concepts. I believe Nissan has already announced plans to use the Nissan 2020 VGT designs in the next generation GT-R I wouldn't be surprised if the Infinity VGT continues upon this path for the G series.
Im curious if they will go G series on the Infinity VGT using the VQ engine but RWD vs the GT-R's AWD system. If so what will they do if anything with the Nissan 2020 VGT ERS System. I would be really kool if the ERS system is left in but only powers the rear wheels more like F1 vs the way these systems seem to be going nowadays mostly AWD with torque vectoring.
The 2 shots we have of the Infinity do not reveal the front end, Im interested to see the Infinity twist on the front end , I predict fluid & less aggressive than the Nissan but still edgy.

Since the Infinity G Series is sold in Japan under Nissan as the Skyline, this could also be considered a Future concept for the Skyline.
Glad to see Infinities addition keeping with real world traditions in the VGT concept.
The VGT Lineup are some of my favorite cars to drive in GT6 each one already tuned and great to drive albeit some more than others it gives an idea of how cars should be set up for that real to life feel.
