The company’s 3.5-liter V6 pairs with a new nine-speed automatic gearbox. Infiniti is preparing to introduce the updated QX60 crossover sometime soon, though the automaker may have little to share when the time comes. The company announced today that the 2022 model would see a 20-percent increase in the crossover’s towing capacity thanks to the new nine-speed automatic gearbox Infiniti teased earlier this month. The updated QX60 will offer up to 6,000 pounds (2,721 kilograms) of towing capacity on select trims. Infiniti says the extra hauling power is possible because of the new nine-speed automatic gearbox, which pairs to the same 3.5-liter V6 of the outgoing model. The 6,000-pound towing models will also receive an uprated transmission cooler, integrated hitch receiver, a dedicated pre-wiring harness, and new stability programming with the trailer in mind. The increased capacity will allow the QX60 to tow things like a 22-foot Airstream trailer. Gallery: 2022 … [Read more...] about Latest 2022 Infiniti QX60 Teaser Reveals Increased Towing Capacity

Grand Prix return to Africa “a priority” for Formula 1
F1 global director of race promotion Chloe Targett-Adams, who deals with event organisers, said that continent is top of the current wish list for new events. Reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton has stressed that Africa is where he would like the sport to go next. Former F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone tried for many years to find a way to return to South Africa, which last hosted a round of the World Championship in 1993, and that desire has continued under Liberty Media’s management. While South Africa remains the most likely venue there has also been interest from other countries, notably Morocco, which hosted a race in 1958. “I completely agree with Lewis, Africa is a continent that we don't race in, and that is just wrong,” Targett-Adams told a Blackbook online seminar. “It's somewhere that we very much want, it's the priority. We've been in talks with possible options for a few years. “And we're hoping that ultimately, we will be able to achieve a race there in the … [Read more...] about Grand Prix return to Africa “a priority” for Formula 1
