This is a Motormouth couple car review of the all-new Infiniti QX60 mid-size, three-row luxury SUV. The QX60 is a big seller for Infiniti, which makes this new 7-passenger SUVan important model in their lineup. Gone is the CVT, Infiniti has moved to a 9-speed automatic transmission with improved torque delivery and response, it shifts quickly and smoothly. The 3.5L V6 engine with 295 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque is carried over from the previous model. Standard AWD in Canada but both FWD and AWD options on all four trims in the US.This Infiniti has improved fuel economy, an upgraded suspension and steering, a quieter cabin, a more comfortable drive, less body roll and standard towing capacity of 3500 pounds. The top two trims can tow 6,000 pounds, which is enough to tow a 22-foot Airstream.The QX60 has a bold front bumper, black grille, unique digital piano key LED headlights and is the first Infiniti to offer two-tone styling with an available all-black roof. The rear features an all-new wrap around glass treatment creating a clean and simplistic design. Our test model is the Sensory trim, one below the top trim. It comes with 20” alloy wheels, LED headlights and taillights, chrome accents, silver roof rails, a motion activated liftgate and a panoramic sunroof. The QX60 offers an inviting and warm cabin with a saddle brown leather interior and a black open pore ash wood trim in our test model. Infiniti says, every detail of the QX60’s interior was well thought out including, the placement of its controls to make it a user-friendly experience. Infiniti embarked on a global two-year study to find the most pleasing materials at touch points and brought those surfaces and textures into this SUV. The zero gravity seats with an available massage feature in the front row are comfortable and plush for long trips and the second row has a standard bench seat, available captain’s chairs. The QX60 offers more passenger space now, the hip to heel room has increased with an extra 1.5” in the second row and almost half an inch in the third for a more natural seating position. Getting into the 3rd row is easy with a one touch second row and you don't have to remove your car seat, the seat pitches and slides forward. There’s 14.5 cubic feet of space behind the 3rd row and you also get 1.91 cubic feet of under floor storage. The QX60 comes with a redesigned infotainment system with a 12.3” touchscreen. The display can also be controlled at the centre console. The base trim offers plenty of standard features if you don’t want to make the stretch to the higher trims including, a panoramic sunroof, power liftgate, leather seats, driver seat memory, power driver and passenger seats, a heated steering wheel, heated front seats, wireless Apple Carplay and wired Android Auto. One up from the base model is the Luxe my “best value” trim, it gets you the 12.3” digital driver display, ProPilot Assist with Navigation and 20” wheels. In the US, you also get ventilated front seas on this trim. The top two trims come with head up display, motion activated liftgate, heated second row seats, ventilated front seats (Canada), a wireless charger and Bose sound system. The top trim has captain’s chairs with a removable centre console and perforated quilted seats with contrast stitching.

If there is an award for the "Most improved automobile of the year," Infiniti QX60 would win it by far...
I am really impressed with it!
Infiniti looks like it’s waking back up from the dead. QX60 appears promising, updated, luxurious, and bulky. The infotainment system is user friendly with its touchscreen. Its interior is spacious and modern with the technology; though the trunk space could be improved like the MDX but that storage space beneath is still good. This vehicle honestly looks like a love child between a Range Rover and a Lexus. We’ll have to wait to see how well this luxury vehicle scores with car reviewers like Edmunds. Wonder how well its engine reliability will be as well. Nonetheless, this is a great step forward for Infinti. Great review as always you two!
Its an old V6 3.5 engine, its reliability is well known
Great, it’ll look excellent when propped up on a lift once a month
I love my infii...shee just rolls..
Nissan/Infiniti is back with a vengeance! The reshuffle of their lineup is making selections among different brands very hard right now. Love it!
I was really impressed with this one!
Looks like Infiniti did a pretty good job (mostly) with the QX 60.. but I am on the taller side (6'2").. I like a taller, higher roofline to improve outward visibility and good cabin room/comfort. The QX still looks like it has an (unfortunately) very low roofline. A lot of new SUV/CUV designs are going for a more boxy, higher roofline designs.. I think the QX may have missed the boat on this... If the Infiniti QX would have raised the roofline on the QX about 2" or 3" (for extra comfort and good visibility), I think this would have been MUCH better.
Great job on this video. Good quality. Good pace on the review also. Some video just drags. All talk and no show. This video kept the a steady stream of information flowing. Great show and tell video with just the right amount of banter.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you very much, really glad you enjoyed it!
It seems like a great suv. I would pick it over my MDX BUT 2 things that are major negatives for me: 1. Premium fuel (wrong direction here, should be perhaps a hybrid suv). 2. No option to switch the chrome plaguing this SUV to black.
Coming from a Infiniti owner, I compliment a lot the Nissan Pathfinder SL Premium and Platinum trims. New Pathfinder is a great deal and awesome looking SUV as well.
Thanks for sharing Andrea and Zack! Huge improvement over the last generation... Infiniti really needs to ditch the awful fake exhaust styling element.
Thanks for watching, happy you enjoyed it. Oh yes, the fake exhaust pipes need to go, first thing I noticed.
That can be easily solved w/ a can of plasti dip or if you're experienced enough, a vinyl wrap.
Hi Zack and Andrea. You two are great at picking out the subtle ergonomic quirks that buyers would come to resent. Nowadays it seems user interface issues are more important than mechanical specifications when choosing a vehicle. ✌️
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it!
I really enjoy your reviews! Just the right length and you don't go through every little detail, you talk about the stuff we care about. I also like the format of the information provided, and you guys make a really good team!
A good review as always, with a good job of positioning this Inifinty versus the Pathfinder and its head to head competition. The Infiniti is definently more attractive than the MDX. And nice outfit, Andrea.
Thank you so much, really glad you enjoyed it.
This is the best review I've had in a long time. Keep up the god work.
Thank you so much, we really appreciate that!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow best review ever! Accurate info! Not cringe! Not awkward! Love it!
Fully agreeed 🔥
Thank you so much!
@@Motormouth... I'm a big car guy and I really dislike a lot of the car reviewers or there. They either have no clue about the brand or the model or just go on and on on none sense. I really love the shots you take of each car driving away good it looks in front of a house close ups. Really gives you a taste of what it would be to own the car. Your opinions on the car are very realistic and dont add a bunch of fluff
Wow, that's so great to hear, thank you!
@@Ecuador006 Thank you very much!
I love the click noise when you push the piano key buttons.
Great review as usual. I test drive this model and drove the Autograph trim and loved it. What I did not love though is the $15k markup the dealer on it. $10k on the Sensory models. All due to high demand...Insane!
I hate it when they do that, it's not right. If the MSRP is that price, then that's what they should sell it for.
Call around.. the markup is at a dealership level not corporate. I bought mine with no mark up at the NALLY dealership here in Georgia
Dam stealers, may i ask which state it was ?
@@Ecuador006 Texas
That's really crazy and unfortunate, I hope you found a better dealer, these dealer mark ups are insane
Love your reviews. Would enjoy more with the inclusion of your “nightlife” segments. Interior/ambient lighting is of great interest and for me can be a differentiator when other vehicles in the class are competitive.
I’m a huge Nissan/Infiniti hater, but I have to say… I like this one a lot.
Overall Infiniti did a great job on this new QX60, they deserve the credit.
Love you guys! Just get a CX9 Signature… nicer interior, every option etc. considering it was first sold in 2016 it’s still relevant today and compares well with these. When the new CX-90 shows up and if priced right maybe the one to get. Anyway I ordered a CX9 Signature and getting it in Sep 2022. Best value and luxury imo.
What an absolute gay comment
I absolutely adore the QX60. Its design is simply stunning, and its features are impressive. When I was on the lookout for a new SUV last summer to replace my 2020 Durango, the QX60 was among my top three choices. The MDX came in second for me. Sadly, I didn't end up choosing either Infiniti or Acura. Instead, I went with the 2023 Dodge Durango in the orange edition.
The premium fuel requirement is puzzling to me, especially since the new Pathfinder has the same engine. The fuel requirement is a big disappointment for me.
Lol people who complain about gas prices shouldn’t be buying luxury cars to begin with
No need for premium fuel. As you stated, same engine. The ECU will account for the lower octane and make adjustments. I have 2 Infiniti's that "require" premium fuel. I use regular 90% of the time.
Yeah car will detune to the pathfinders mapping, you loose power but save $
Wish the review couple would get their facts straight. I see they aren't really car people and have minimal understanding on how vehicles work these days. I know it's just an opinion but claiming ypu HAVE to use premium fuel is rookie.
the Infiniti uses more premium materials for the engine,
that's why premium is required.
now some might say, but if their based on the same platform,
how can they be different.
when they say based on the same platform, or shared,
it doesn't mean what goes into each vehicle is the same.
there is a reason Infiniti is a recognized premium brand,
it's because the engine, the construction, the interior
all use higher grade materials, and that's why they cost more.
Nissan is a domestic manufacturer, and while they also
own Infiniti, you can't sell a Nissan vehicle for the same
price as Infiniti.
okay so what are you getting, essentially Nissan and Infiniti
share similar platforms, but that only has to do with vehicle size,
and similar performance use.
but the way Infiniti achieves those same numbers, is different,
and that's where you get into premium gas vs regular.
now some might say, Lexus says you can use regular in their cars,
yes but they will also tell you, premium fuel will improve the performance.
Lexus is a premium luxury brand, but what that means to each
brand is different. BMW's slogan is the ultimate driving machine,
those are marketing terms, but what that means is,
they wanna give you the most fun and best handling.
BMW builds most of their cars based on that, so their gonna use
the best parts for the engine, for the brakes, basically all the
things you associate with BMW.
Lexus philosophy, was always about the pursuit of excellence.
so depending on how Lexus goes about it, some of their cars
won't require premium fuel, but some of their cars do require it.
well Infiniti on the other hand, always tried to be more like Acura,
and a little like BMW. most Acura's require premium gas,
and some don't, well Infiniti goes one step further,
most Infiniti's you come across do.
Nissan doesn't use anything high end, it's a domestic car brand,
so the engine is going to be less complicated, and easier to maintain.
but that's the cost of going premium, it's because reliability is not
the center focus. however that don't mean they can't be,
most of the Japanese premium brands are pretty good,
and Lexus is number 1 in reliability, but the German brands is where
it can vary.
"Gone is the CVT" Yep, That's right. It's that easy... Why can't auto manufacturers learn and listen to their customers? For me, CVTs are best left to EVs and Hybrids.. Yes!!! Great review Zach and Andrea, even though this is not the vehicle for me. As always, I'm here for your channel.
Thank you very much, we really appreciate the support. Thanks for watching!
@@Brian-jv8iy plug in/Hybrids are to me the epitome of Bland. Nonscript, vanilla. Although I realize Porsche/Tesla, has made a run of these vanilla wafers into super fast vehicles. I’m the type to enjoy the pleasures of hearing a petrol/gas engine roarrrr!! Whether that be 4/6-turbo, 6 S/C, or a Naturally Aspirated V8. I’m old though so I digress.
I love my 2005 FX45, amazing SUV one of a kind
Fantastic! - Andrea
I have an FX35 that I love!
Is road/wind noise significantly lower in qx60 than the pathfinder, especially when you are driving at highway speed?
Thank you for the video. Those sun roofs do they have option to close? If you don't want sun and light constantly shining on you?
Good review. Can you please review the Infiniti 2023 QX60. How does 2023 QX60 stack against Mazda CX9?
The bumpy suspension is partially attributed to the 20" wheels and lower profile tires. Drive the base with 18" wheels.
I went and looked at one of these…$5000 dealer markup…no thanks..I’ll wait for the chip shortage situation to improve
I hate that! Wish they would just stick with the MSRP pricing
Call around… all dealerships aren’t marking up.. I paid msrp
Dam stealerz ,may i ask which city it was in ?
@@Ecuador006 Georgia but the markup is nationwide for most vehicles
Zack should wright a book on how an average guy was able to marry a supermodel!!
I like the the chrome trim accents at the bottom of the rear bumper. They don’t look like exhaust finishers, rather they look like a continuation of the front chrome plates in the lower front front fascia. They are more subdued on the lesser trim levels. Either way…. I applaud Infiniti for going with this design.
Thanks for sharing!
awesome video review Andrea and Zack!
Thank you so much!
is the premium fuel required/mandatory ?
Hi Andrea & Zack
I'm looking to get a premium SUV and after going through various brands have it down to Lexus RX , infiniti qx60 , BMW X3 and genesis GV70 all 2023 models. Which do you think would be the best pick . I'm leaning towards gv70 but if it a reliable brand ?
Did you mention it needs premium gas? We are currently leasing the 2019 qx60 and it takes regular. Is it that the car runs better on premium?
Infiniti recommends premium fuel for their models for better performance.
Love the brown interior. What an improvement! The fake exhaust tips have to go!! And the gas mileage is nothing to write home about, especially having to use premium fuel. Ouch!!!
Glad you enjoyed the review, thanks for watching! We couldn't agree more with you, those fake exhaust pipes have got to go
Isn’t it premium recommended and not required?
@@djalipumpkin No. Premium fuel only is required in the new QX60. The Infiniti website states that this engine requires a minimum of 91 octane & strongly advises to use nothing else. I noticed in the review that Andrea never mentioned that regular gas can be used. When it can, she usually states the lower horse power and torque, which she didn't do on this review.
@@djalipumpkin Infiniti recommends premium fuel in all their models for better performance.
Premium not premium. Recommend not recommend. I bought this vehicle 4 weeks and it drives amazing with premium fuel, whatever people are saying, I’m not changing to regular gasoline for the sake of performance. Just think it’s a luxury vehicle with luxury price tag, so what’s a 3 or 4 dollars extra at the gas stations fill up.
This was a great video. You guys are amazing! I definitely like infinity. I like Lexus also.
Thank you so much, we really appreciate the kind words.
U also love weed and government checks right. Lol 😆
Do you like acura too ?
How would you rank it compared to the Grand Cherokee L with the V6 (Limited I would say)? Better, similar, worse?
The chrome parts you refer to a fake exhaust finishers in the back bumper are suppose to be skid plates that match the ones in the front bumper. I was looking at a different trim level the other day and they are way less distracting in the mat gray color.
I think it looks terrific just not a fan of the premium gas it needs especially now with what gas cost .
Infiniti recommends premium fuel for all their models for better performance.
I know premium fuel is recommended but who owns one of these and has been running regular 87 fuel....how has it been running on regular instead of premium?
Wich one would you buy q60 or mdx ...?
Both are great, the MDX handles better, drives more like a large sedan. This QX60 drives like an SUV. I prefer the touchscreen in the QX60 so I would go with the Infiniti for overall ease of use.
What a cool review! You answered all my questions! Love the dynamic between the two of you. Idk if your intention is to deliver an informative message in a funny way but you do! That exhaust gots to go. Didn't realize it until you pointed it out 😬 MDX S looks way sharper and meaner. Luxury vs sporty on these two but MDX S turbo at 17mpg city is no bueno right now with the rising gas prices. Real world that could be 14mpg city. Yikes.
Hello there,
Thanks you for sharing!
Are you able to add television in the back of the head rest of the driver, passenger seat for the children?
Much love from
the PencilHeadFamily
💛💛💛
Infiniti is still in business?!
Good review, is there a market for big SUVs like this? Looks much better than the older one, no Cvt 👍🏻.
Game changer: NO CVT, thank goodness.
Similar suspension quality to a Porsche?
It’s gorgeous
Infiniti did a wonderful job!
I really like the QX60, I'd actually look at the 1 lower than top trim, I prefer a second row bench. I'm rarely if ever going to use the third row, so bench is ideal. This just has everything I want.
You two are very fun to watch. Thank you for the review but its MDX for me.
Thank you, really glad you are enjoying our content. MDX will always be a great choice, such a wonderful handling SUV.
Very nice review and comparisons. I'm looking to upgrade from a Nissan Murano. I was not looking for a 3 row SUV (only driving 2 people around most times) but the QX55 disappoints and the QX60 is so much better. That exhaust styling is a detriment though. I'll probably hold out another year to see if that changes, or aftermarket part comes out. Perhaps a drop in price once too. Great car.
Not sure I understand this category of 7 seater SUV. Clearly your not putting 5 or even 7 people in these vehicles and going camping. I bet these owners have the back seat laying down most of the time. Forget the Airstream you would need a trailer just to head out to the hockey rink if you had to pick up a couple other kids. Great looking and great review. Not for me I’m out.
Thanks for sharing, glad you enjoyed the review though.
Thanks for a great review as always, Zack and Andrea!
Question- I took this for a test drive and found it to stutter a little coming from a full stop around town.
Also on the highway, when at 70mph and needing to go around someone, there was a full 1 second delay after pressing the gas pedal before the power kicked in. Did you experience anything like that? I almost wonder if my tester wasn’t tuned or warmed up. It still had some wrapping from the factory.
What about the Genesis GV80? Isn't that an overall better vehicle?
I've always liked the front end and grill of Infiniti; but the back half and side view reminds me of Lincoln Aviator or Corsair. Not sure why luxury brands run on premium? The extra cost per gallon doesn't give you the same return in power and mpgs compared to the same engine tuned to run on regular gas in lower trims?
Awsome video! Infiniti has a winner on its hand, I still would pick the MDX tho!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Man I love this. I always wanted to get into Infiniti but just couldn’t because of the interio being so outdated for so long but now seeing this and wanting to get into a bigger car this might be good.
Nice CAR I have QX60 2017
Seemingly much-improved QX 60 Topnotch info caption & video review
Thank you so much!
I still prefer the MDX, despite the awkward trackpad. But this was a great video to confirm what I thought.
Cheers for this. :)
wow...can't believe how much is looks like the current Toyota highlander from the front and side....that's a good thing I think
Yes, definitely some similarities with the slim headlights.
Hi Guys,
I do like the look of this model from the outside.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! - Andrea
any suggestion on improving that fake chrome exhaust? i am thinking of just spray painting it the same color as the bumper
Plasti dip or wrap it I wouldn’t spray paint it that’s just me
Hi guys. Just found (and subscribed) to your channel. Really like the style or your reviews and the way the info is presented. Granted, I haven't seen too many reviews so far, but would love to hear your opinions on NVH while driving the cars. I'm getting too old for a harsh, loud car and my small town doesn't have too many options to test drive cars only to be turned off from road/wind noise. Keep up the great work!!
Welcome aboard!
Amazing, thanks for subscribing!
QX55 need this interior design ASAP ,like right now 😂
YES! I would like to see that because I think the exterior is quite beautiful
Hey Zach, looks like you lost some weight good for you! Nice review as well
What would be your choice between the qx60 and the xt6…. From a driving and comfort experience?
QX60. Both vehicles are quiet but there is slightly less NVH from the VQ powertrain in the Infiniti versus the Cadillac 3.6 liter motor. Ride quality is softer in the QX60 but keep in mind the handling will be a little less sharp when compared against the Caddy.
Real nice vehicle... love the exterior styling (except for the fake exhaust tips) and love the interior. The big disappointment is the engine... they should have used their 330hp 3.7L engine that they had on their M37/Q70... beautiful engine... I have a 11 year old M37x (since new) and I still love that engine even after 300,000 km.
With the new 9-speed, power is not a problem.
The new 9-speed is fantastic!
One thing worth noting is that engine is for RWD configuration. The Qx60 is a FWD configuration so they used this VQ35DE motor instead.
Can't put a longitudinal engine in a front wheel drive platform
Y they didn't add led fog lights
Ininiti experiment with CVT is done? The power trains in older models were great...FX and QX series sound great...then some head scratching years. Every maker seems to go through a phrase...even my beloved BMW has laid an egg or 2. They will fix it or the market will fix it for them. Always love your reviews your research makes it easier for us.
Thank you very much, glad you are enjoying the reviews.
A little late but quick question, This or the Audi Q7 ?
So did Andrea love cars before Zach? Or did he introduce you into the world of cars?
A bit of both! Always had an interest in cars but more so since we met. Definitely a car family in our house.
So is that a new QX4?
I have been waiting for this! I am trying to decide between this and the MDX! I can't decide!!
We are putting out a comparison between the two on Tuesday, stay tuned. Hope it helps you decide - Andrea
Me too. Im on this dilema.
Hard to choose!
@@KITTcsg Oh good, the comparison should help then.
I would spray paint the chrome "exhaust" pieces in flat black.
great review and a nice improvement. PS i love camping too. could you put roof racks on the QX60 and a small cargo container.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it! I don't see why you couldn't put rook racks on the QX60. - Andrea
Luv the new style in and out but disappointed that the tech still lags the competition.
The acura does not qualify for the tax incentive in the United States...the xfinity does.
I might never have purchased a QX in the past, but I absolutely loved renting them for a week here and there. Besides, nobody rents the Acura MDXs. This new one is by far an improvement of the last QX, no comparison. I love what it looks like (save those ridiculous fake exhaust tips), I like the size and the interior design is so much nicer. The Acura’s over styled and complicated interior is it’s major weak point. So between the two... I’d go with the Infiniti. I think they’ve nailed it. But I’d test drive both (ideally a week) to really find out. Are you listening Enterprise/Budget/Avis rent-a-car? Thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing, glad you enjoyed the review too.
That’s another issue with Nissan/Infiniti. They flood their vehicles in the car rental marketplace which negatively impacts the resale value of their vehicles.
Will they put this new transmission on the qx55?! I don’t really need 3 rows and qx55 is a looker
Oh I hope so, it has a beautiful exterior, but the CVT has to go.
Finally a new infotainment system. It's about time Infiniti! How is this new infotainment system? And does this mean that we're going to see this new system in other newer products from Infiniti? Are there any fake outside plastic air ducts? Shame on you Infiniti for those fake exhaust tips. How good is the HUD (Head's up display)? i don't like quilted seats and door trim because I find it looks too much like a coffin...sorry. I do agree with you guys on this. I have a 2012 G37xS Coupe (Red) that I purchased new and then added a lot of performance mods and interior Carbon Fiber Trim; It's never seen any winters and is fun to drive. Our winter vehicle as you may remember guys is a 2018 Full optioned BMW X1 also with aftermarket wheels and tires for summer and performance parts with extras that we added to the interior. It has the executive package which surprisingly wasn't available in the US and has thicker glass and adjustable dampers and park assist and ICC (intelligent Cruise Control and adjustable rear seats. I think we will keep this until the EVs come out and are competitive in price. I think BMW invented the SUV with the X5. The Climate controls in the QX60 uses haptic feedback like smartphones. From what I can see the BMW infotainment system is still superior. As you know Bimmers have 8 buttons on the dash that are programmable presets. I use the first button as my 40 favorite stations which include Sirius XM, AM and FM. The Infotainment wheel controls everything without lag and I also save my home address on another button. I use another button as a speed dial list. The advantage of having a home address saved in the button is that you can find your way home from anywhere quickly without going through the whole navigation menu. The media screen in the Bimmer is really quite good too. The navigation combined with the display in the dash and HUD is really good and I haven't seen much better yet and certainly from your video here Infiniti still had a way to go. I have an Android phone and I'm not a fan of the intrusiveness of Android Auto. I find it slows your phone and nav down and I can't comment on Apple Car Play. Great review you guys and as usual your production quality is A1. You guys are lucky you're not in Montreal...the weather here is awful. So cold that car batteries are freezing! I hope that Infiniti brings out a new sports car with a completely new platform, the current platform has been around since 2008!
Beautiful inside and out, except for the steering wheel that doesn’t belong in the Pathfinder, much less in an Infiniti. The chrome tips in the back have to go. Overall, though, Infiniti has done a good job.
Overall, Infiniti did a great job on this one!
@@andreaspencer9813 Absolutely!
Funny how sometimes something minor can be a dealbreaker. For me, it’s the chrome pieces on bottom of rear bumper. Looks like something you buy at Walmart and put on with liquid nails.
And why does a naturally aspirated v6 require premium fuel?
Thanks for watching! Infiniti recommends premium fuel for their vehicles because they are tuned for performance. They feel you will get the most out of this vehicle power-wise with premium fuel.
The refresh is nice. But if I am to be honest it has lost personality. I own a 2016 QX60 and I love the fact that you wont mix it up with other cars. This one has similar window as the GMC arcadia on the sides in the rear... The front is awesome, but the side is plain to say the least.
Forgot about Infiniti to be honest. This is a nice ride with some nice features (not the exhaust pipe fiasco) but I’d probably go with the MDX if I had to choose one
Thanks for sharing and watching!
Why not x5 ?
@@Ecuador006 if I had to choose between the Nissan and the mdx
I like this.
Infiniti did a great job on this one!
How much
Lexus RX wins with grill space 😜
All the vehicles look’s great however I will choose the RXL!
How bout acura mdx ?
@@Ecuador006 That will also be my top choice, very striking vehicle😍
Too bad the steering wheel and shift knob/area looks exactly like Nissans.
Now that's a review. Good job. Bye bye jatco cvts. Hope the decision saves Nissan. Tinfoil for the exhausts, hope others don't copy it. That's worth big $.
Thank you! Really glad you liked it. Yes, a premium brand should not have a CVT, thank goodness it's gone.
Great review. It is really a great comparison to Pathfinder. Whether the QX60 truly worth the premium over Pathfinder is the dealer service. Although there is some Infiniti dealer exists inside Nissan dealer floor, its the stand alone Infiniti dealer that will provide much better service than those of a Nissan. Premium service like loaner car provides for simple service like oil change, will definitely be the reason QX60 > Pathfinder. I have known a good friend who chose a Q3 over Tiguan because of Audi premium service, also their superior reliability. That's despite the showrooms are next door to each others. Guess if you are from Vancouver, you should know which dealer group I talked about.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it and thanks for all the feedback.
I realize there is a disparity in the class of vehicle but how does this compare to the GLB by Mercedes??
Yes, this is a lot bigger, the GLB 3rd row is only used in a pinch. It's quite small, this 3rd row is definitely bigger. Beautiful interior in the GLB though.
Hopefully this total refresh will save Nissan/Infiniti. They’ve lost so many customers to their competitors over years due to their reluctance not to make a total refresh (inside and outside) with many of their aging models. And they finally got rid of the troublesome Jatco CVT transmission!
It's a good 9-speed automatic transmission, Infiniti did a great job with this one. It's just too bad as you said, they waited much too long. Hopefully, this QX60 will be a good seller for them, I will certainly recommend it.
Is Infiniti going to survive as a brand? My local dealer Morrey Infiniti in burnaby is now a Volvo dealership, and they shifted what inventory they had left to their adjacent Nissan franchise and stuck a sign on the side of the building like an afterthought 😕
Interesting, I hope the brand survives, they certainly did a great job with this new QX60. I also love the exterior of the QX55 but that CVT has to go.
I like it. I even like the chrome bits on the front and rear. I think they add some visual differences and interest. I just don't look at them as fake exhaust outlets. I really like the interior a lot better than the Pathfinder. I just don't like the high price. It's not that amazing to command the price differential in my opinion. I also like the FWD option here in the U.S.
It's not bad for a Nissan but I probably get the GV80 instead or maybe the acura NDX
no night life shots??
Infinity is the top Japanese lux brand !! 🇯🇵
ordered Autograph. You get top trim for very reasonable price
That is an amazing design! Nothing even close to that on the market. Really nothing. You have nice looking SUVs, but really nothing even close to this BEAUTIFUL SUV.
Infiniti did a great job! 👍
That front looks very similar to Hyundai Palisade
looks better than the mdx imho, but not the chrome exhaust cover.... mdx is the best awd system among all the luxury Japanese vehicles. not understand why infiniti chose not to use the 3.0T engine.
I picked up my QX60 Autograph a few days ago.. love it. Had to wait 5 months. I don't think MDX is any comparison to this. The third row in MDX is unusable. QX60 is a huge bargain pricing compared to US.
Wow, congratulations! I really enjoyed the QX60 a lot. It's interesting you say the MDX 3rd row seat is unusable because it actually has more space in the 3rd row than the QX60. Maybe it was more about comfort level than space? I agree with you about the pricing, such great value in both Canada and the US, very well priced. I also heard there was a bit of a wait for the QX60, sounds like you had the same issue having to wait 5 months.
@@andreaspencer9813 In the US, the Autograph model is US$64k (C$81.6k), in Canada it is only C$68k - great value. So after conversion, these are huge bargains in Canada.
