The carmaker said the opening of the showroom is the next move in its quest to establish a strong presence in Hong Kong, ‘which bridges the western world and Asia and provides an excellent gateway to China’.

Situated in the heart of Hong Kong's commercial district, the new Infiniti Gallery will showcase the brand’s line-up while the showroom is intended to ‘create an ultra-modern, luxurious and sophisticated environment where visitors can experience Infiniti's renowned customer service and attention’.

The showroom was officially opened by Johan de Nysschen, president of Infiniti Motor Company Ltd, and Donald Yip, CEO of Dah Chong Hong Holdings Limited, Infiniti's local automotive dealership partner in Hong Kong.

The event featured an appearance by Jennifer Tse, the renowned Hong Kong model-actress, as well as Infiniti's Essence concept car. Also on display was the FIA Formula One World Championship Constructors' trophy of the Infiniti Red Bull Racing team.

‘As the only premium automotive manufacturer to be headquartered in Hong Kong, I am very pleased that there is now the first Infiniti showroom, the Infiniti Gallery, right here in our home town, itself a uniquely discerning luxury car market,’ said Mr de Nysschen.

‘The opening of Infiniti Gallery is the latest milestone in our global expansion which now extends to 50 markets worldwide. We look forward to welcoming customers to Infiniti Gallery and enabling them to experience our range of premium performance Infiniti vehicles.’

Mr Yip added: ‘We are honoured to be representing the Infiniti brand in Hong Kong and bringing “inspired performance” to the discerning luxury car customers of Hong Kong.

‘We are confident that Infiniti vehicles, with their definitive styling, performance and craftsmanship will change the way Hong Kong car owners think about premium vehicles.’
