Our Opinion - 2025 Infiniti QX60 Review

The 2025 Infiniti QX60 is stylish and comfortable enough to compete with less expensive cars like the Acura MDX and the Buick Enclave, but it needs to be more high-end to go up against the BMW X5 or the Genesis GV80. Even though it looks a lot like the Nissan Pathfinder on the outside, this three-row mid-size crossover shows off Infiniti’s sleek design. The car has a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 268 horsepower. An all-wheel drive is an option, but the front-wheel drive is normal. The higher-end Nissan trims have more comfort and features than the lower-end ones, but the more expensive ones have things like massaging seats and quilted leather seating. The bigger 20-inch wheels make the ride rougher, and the handling could be better, but the Infiniti’s quiet and laid-back personality might appeal to you if you don’t care about having fun while driving and live in an area with few bumps. Another important thing that makes the QX60 appealing is that it costs a lot less than European SUVs in the same class.

The smaller QX50’s 3.5-liter V-6 engine with 268 horsepower has been replaced by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the QX60. The crossover has a continuously variable transmission, while the QX60 still has its nine-speed automatic engine. The Luxe level, which is in the middle, also has a Black Edition choice that comes with black 20-inch wheels, black roof rails, and black exterior emblems. You can paint the outside Harbor Gray, Majestic White, or Mineral Black. The inside has unique door sill guard plates and a black headliner.

Pros

  • A peaceful journey.
  • The most stylish SUV that Infiniti makes.
  • Getting to the third row is easy.

Cons

  • A turbo engine’s reputation is not good.
  • Clear exchange of parts with Nissan.
  • With grit, you can see in 360°.

The 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the QX60 makes 268 horsepower and is paired with an automatic transmission with nine speeds. Front-wheel drive is normal on the QX60, but all-wheel drive can be added as an option. The 3.5-liter V-6 engine in the 2022 QX60 made us very happy during our first test drive. The chassis kept the body in check while turning, and the nine-speed automatic gearbox made shifting a breeze. The ride is stiffer than we thought it would be for such a comfortable cruiser, especially with the extra 20-inch wheels.

A lot of cutting-edge technology is available as choices, and some driver-assistance systems come as standard. One of these features is adaptive cruise control, which slows down the car before it turns on the road by using information from the QX60’s built-in navigation system. Visit the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) webpages to learn more about the QX60’s crash test scores. Some important safety factors are:

  • Basic emergency brakes and forward collision warning that are done automatically.
  • Normal lane departure alarm with help for lane keeping.
  • You can get adaptive speed control.

The QX60 has three rows of seats inside that can fit up to seven people. However, the second-row captain’s chairs in the top-of-the-line Autograph model limit the number of seats to six. The luxurious cabin is effectively furnished with high-quality materials all over and extra soundproofing methods to make you feel more at ease from the outside world. As an extra, Infiniti has heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, and a massage function. The front seats also come with eight-way power adjustments and heat. Furthermore, better trim levels come with a three-zone system that includes an air purifier in addition to the standard temperature control for two zones.

The EPA says that the QX60 with front-wheel drive gets 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. The all-wheel-drive version gets 22 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. These numbers are a few more miles per gallon than the old V-6 model’s. When we get a chance, we’ll test the QX60 on our 75 mph highway fuel economy route. We’ll add the results to this story.

It has a 12.3-inch tablet infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that can be used wirelessly. You can choose not to have either a 10.8-inch head-up display or a 12.3-inch digital gauge display. Also, all QX60s have WiFi built right in. There is also a high-end Bose stereo setup with 17 speakers for sale.

Because it’s the only car in this generation, we could only test the 2023 QX60 with the V-6 engine. At 60 mph, it took 6.2 seconds, which was good. The 2025 with the turbo four-cylinder might be slower, but we’ll have to test a QX60 to be sure.

The most weight that the QX60 can pull is 6,000 pounds. While this is about the same as the Genesis GV80’s highest capacity, it is less than the Mercedes-Benz GLE350 and BMW X5’s.

We suggest the Sensory trim model. As standard, it has a 17-speaker Bose sound system, wireless charging for smartphones, an air cleaner, heated seats in the second row, a motion-activated power liftgate, and front seats that massage you. Only some people want all-wheel drive, but front-wheel drive is common and should be enough for most buyers.
