Infiniti has revealed the pricing for the upcoming M Hybrid. The first luxury sedan hybrid from the Japanese automaker will hit U.S. dealerships on March 16th with an MSRP of $53,700. As we reported earlier this month, the luxury hybrid’s fuel economy is rated at a very impressive 32 mpg (highway) and 27 mpg (street), which is impressive considering there are over 350 horses under the hood.

The non-hybrid Infiniti M has a starting M.S.R.P. of $47,700 USD for the Infiniti M37 RWD.

Infiniti announced official EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) fuel economy figures of 32 mpg (highway) for the 2012 Infiniti M35h.
The first ever luxury hybrid vehicle from the Japanese automaker offers 350hp (3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine, which paired with the 50 kW electric motor) and 27 mpg (city) for a combined fuel rate of 29 mpg. Ranking it 10 mpg below the popular Ford Fusion/Milan hybrid but given the M35h’s power it seems to be a fair trade off.
The soon to be released sedan also features the all-new Infiniti Direct Response Hybrid system, which is an advanced one-motor, two-clutch parallel hybrid design that utilizes precise, high-speed motor control technology enabled by the powerful Lithium-ion battery, allowing power to be delivered directly to the vehicle’s 7-speed automatic transmission.
It goes on sale in the U.S. in spring 2011.
