It might be five weeks away, but car companies are already starting to tease their concepts for the Frankfurt Motor Show.

First cab off the rank is this – the new Infiniti Q30.

The Japanese brand’s hugely important foray into the compact luxury sector, think of it as a competitor for the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3.

To be built in the UK, it’ll share Mercedes-Benz’s front-wheel-drive architecture and is also the first Infinti to have been influenced from the ground up by the brand’s Director of Performance – F1 superstar Sebastian Vettel.
