Infiniti has refreshed the QX60 for 2026, adding a Sport trim, a revamped front design, and additional standard features. The 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine with a flexible compression ratio stays the same. The new QX60 should be available this summer, but Infiniti has yet to announce its price. The smaller QX60 SUV from Infiniti is trying to get some of the luxury of the bigger QX80 SUV. The three-row mid-size luxury SUV will get a facelift in 2026. It will get a new audio system, more standard equipment, a new Sport trim level, and other cosmetic changes that are meant to make it look like the updated QX80 from 2025. Along with that, it gets a new hands-free highway driver-assistance system to compete with other cars that do the same thing. The large Infiniti emblem is now illuminated as standard, and the bumper, front fascia, and grille have undergone subtle updates. The brightwork on the old QX60 has been changed to dark-chrome trim. The base trim level used to have 18-inch wheels, but now it comes with 20-inch wheels as standard. The wheels also have new designs. The only changes to the QX60’s back end are a new Infiniti script, some new badges, and the removal of the fake exhaust outlets from the bottom fascia. This beautiful shade of Deep Emerald green is brand new. Two new options for trim and upholstery include a stone gray color palette and open-pore wood accented with metal inlays. On the inside, a digital gauge cluster is now standard. There are Klipsch sound systems. The Autobiography’s Klipsch Reference Premiere has 20 speakers, making it the most powerful setup. The less powerful version has only 16. The second setting also has audio zones that can be changed, so the driver can hear, say, a Bluetooth call while the music in the rest of the car is still playing. The QX60’s engine has not changed; it is still a 2.0-liter inline-four turbocharged with 268 horsepower. For the 2025 model year, it is set to replace the 3.5-liter V-6 engine. During our tests, this engine let the 2025 QX60 reach 60 mph in 7.5 seconds. Infiniti says that the variable-compression-ratio engine has been improved to make it smoother, quieter, and less likely to vibrate. The 2026 Sport trim level doesn’t make the car run better in any way. The package only changes the way the car looks. It comes with a new grille, 20-inch wheels, and a blue-and-black-themed interior. It looks like the Black Edition QX60 from last year, which had blacked-out trim and a splitter-style lip on the front bumper. The Autograph is placed above the Sport, which is in the middle of the Pure and Luxe trims. We don’t think prices will change much from the current model, which starts at $51,550 and goes up to $67,500 for an Autograph. However, they may go up a little.
