Inifiniti had help from Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel in designing the FX Sebastian Vettel concept car.

It's a one-off special edition made for Vettel and it's making its debut at Frankfurt.

The FX Sebastian Vettel is based on the FX50, but has a range of cosmetic and mechanical upgrades inspired by Formula One and specified by Vettel.

Vettel's EX has the 5.0-litre V8 engine from the standard car, but it has had a power increase to 414bhp.

The car is 46kg lighter than the standard version, has lower and stiffer suspension and has a bespoke interior.

'The FX Sebastian Vettel is unique and very much Sebastian's car,' said Infiniti corporate vice president. 'But at the same time it is a concept car for Infiniti globally.'
