Infiniti is offering us spicy new details for the Sebastian Vettel FX concept, which will be introduced at the upcoming Frankfurt Auto Show.

The car was created to suit Vettel's style, as..... We'll give you this kind of info below, but we'll actually start with the really hot part: the carmaker hasn't released the exact technical specifications of the vehicle, but has offered us clues that this could hit 300 km/h (186 mph).

"The first-ever Vettel-badged road car, the FX Sebastian Vettel version is the lightest, fastest and most aerodynamic FX yet, reflecting the World Champion's desire for a 300km/h Crossover that he can drive on his home country's derestricted Autobahn," a company statement reads.

All we know about the project's tech side so far is that it is based on the V8-powered FX50S Premium and has received powerplant and suspension tweaks.

The concept also comes with aerodynamic modifications, such as a new front fascia, a carbon fiber front grille and a rear diffuser, which have been implemented with help from Red Bull.

Has the world gone mad? Has Adrian Newey been asked to use his genius for a crossover?

Moving on, we'll tell you that the interior o the car has also been tailored to suit Vettel's taste, receiving multiple individual touches. We'll meet the madness on the Frankfurt floor so get ready to find out all the details.
