While the Q50, Q60, Q70, and whatnot have been out for some time now, the naming still boggles me.

If I can recall, the past naming system went with:

Model Style, and the the engine displacement.

Such as:
G37 (G, 3.7L V6)
M56 (M, 5.6L V8)

When the Q50's name first broke loose to the public, I thought we were getting another Q full-size sedan with a 5.0L V8.

Turns out it was the successor to the G37.

Can someone explain the new naming system?
 
I just checked its website for all their current models. Wow, almost all of them begin with Q. I'm assuming it stands for Quality
Infiniti Quality 50
Infiniti Quality 60
Infiniti Quality 70....
