The Infiniti Essence was created to celebrate the Japanese luxury car manufacturer’s 20th birthday. It is powered by a twin-turbo V6 petrol engine and a powerful electric motor to give a power output of around 600bhp.
It drives the rear wheels through Infiniti’s seven-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission.
When not taking part in the hillclimb, the Essence will be on display in the festival’s FoS-TECH pavilion.
