Happy Friday everyone! We’d like to once again thanks Keeps for sponsoring this video, please be sure to head to keeps.com/redline to save up to 50% on your first order. The new Infiniti QX60 is such a massive step in the right direction for such a lost brand, but Infiniti needs to hurry and offer an electrified and turbo powertrain option if they don’t want to fall behind again.
FYI the touch screen can take up the entire display ONLY if you’re in the the Apple car play mode. If you’re just in the standard Infiniti application you can push the arrow that’s on the map screen and audio screen and it will take up the entire infotainment screen.
Well, given the Infiniti brands "receding" sales, I don't see them coming a"head" of the competition coming out of Asia. They are more than a "hairs" length in "receding" growth especially with their "thinly grown" lineup. You may think that's a "bald" statement, but If you want to see "hairy regrowth", you should look at Toyotas growing line of thirsty hybrid SUVs with lengthy MPGs!
I agree. Hopefully they're a lot smarter with their money this time around. I'm loyal to the company, but they've been disgraceful the last 3-4 years. They've literally slapped their loyalists in the face with how stupid they've been with their lineup. I love my 2009 FX35, I'm hoping they get back to their sporty roots.
They already are in the process of doing that just like Nissan. The QX80 got a new interior and infotainment & the Q50 & Q60 will be discontinued soon. The QX50 & QX55 have updates on the way in the next year.
@@mfaKyoko_forever That's a good thing as that is one of their best selling SUVs. Now they've got to figure out their position in the market. Are they trying to go back to their sporty roots? Or are they trying to go towards plush like Lexus? What are they trying to achieve with their new image? Time will tell, it might be wise for them to come out with a vision statement so current owners know what to look forward to. I hope they go back to sporty. But I definitely understand if they start going to the more plush side of the market as it seems to sell better. When they got rid of the original names (G, FX, and the original QX), they seemed to have started losing their sense of self and direction. Add in the fact that it took them so long to redesign anything, it wasn't a good look for the company. Praying for a new FX/QX70. Even a new G to replace the Q name for the sedan. Hopefully they don't mess up their second chance at life. Customers like myself will have to walk away to a more established brand like Lexus if they can't figure their direction out. Love my Infiniti, fantastic power and cornering with reliability that matches my husband's RX350. I wish there was a 3rd generation FX I could jump into! 😭
He usually does, at least he usually says when it’s not a comfortable ride or a lot of road/tire noise etc. I take it when he doesn’t complain or mention it that it’s pretty good.
Great video as always! Here are a few helpful addendums: You can expand the map to the full width of the 12" center display. Another neat feature is you can expand your speedo/tach out to the sides (as you showed) and bring up a 3D looking navigation map between them. The reason the camera view was 'stuck' is because you toggled the camera mode. You press the camera button a few more times it cycles through the available views before exiting. That really helps when parking/maneuvering and you want a certain view locked in. Keep in mind while in the 3rd row, the 2nd row seat can slide forward several inches. I had a 6' tall friend sit in the 2nd row while I sat in the 3rd and we both had plenty of room once adjusting that 2nd row seat. We loved test driving the vehicle and have it on the short list for our next purchase.
Seen it in person when I was getting maintenance done at the dealer. Very big improvement! Might not be class leading but it’s a step in the right direction🔥
Loved everything about this review! I’ve owned 3 Infiniti’s and looking to upgrade from a sedan to SUV. We have been eyeing this one for a while as we haven’t liked any other SUVs or any Infiniti has offered in the past. It has been tough to find this car and there’s a major shortage & waitlist for it. This vehicle is absolutely stunning!
For me, the trim to get is the sensory AWD, 62k, has everything I want. I wasn't super impressed with the gv80 although I'll probably test drive one. This is the most exciting 3 row in the segment vs the MDX (bad infotainment), Grand Cherokee L (gets super expensive and seems sluggish), RXL (old and not much trunk space) and gv80 (surprisingly expensive).
@@babybluepig 3 of my family members all got cars in the same era 2010 M35x, G37xS, and a 2009 Murano LE all were absolute bulletproof. We still have the M
The wife and I also had Nissan's 15 years ago - '03 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE (hers) and '05 G35 sedan (mine - stolen/stripped 4 months after I got it, replaced it with my '05 Acura TL which I still have)... Loved those things. Traded her Altima for a '08 Murano when she got pregnant with our 3rd kid, went through two CVT transmissions before it hit 120k miles, once under warranty! Limped it to the dealership in 2016 when the 2nd trans acted up and traded it for a Lincoln MKX which we still have. Haven't looked at Nissan the same since.
Agreed! The name changes were the single dumbest thing Infiniti did. Built their 20 year heritage with iconic names and threw them in the trash! Who's idea was this? Corporate suicide. Even to this day I can't remember the new naming and confusing strategy. I really hope one day the old names come back.
Love the styling inside and out .... EXCEPT for the hideous fake chrome exhaust tips. Car could use more power, however ... 400hp twin turbo V6 would be fabulous.
@@YEMX89 wrap the fake exhaust in black and don’t be like Acura which is a separate company. You’re not gonna sell many cars if you copy the competition
Couple of things… 1. Infiniti does offer remote start and controls via an app. 2. The gauge screen can show a map, but a nav destination has to be set and in progress. 3. On the center screen, only the map can take up the whole screen… but you have to press the MAP button with the arrows underneath it on the left hand side. 4. The rear center console was designed to fit in the underfloor storage compartment in the cargo area. 5. The 3.0L V6TT is only compatible with RWD platforms. Otherwise I’m sure they would have used it here. 6. No impressions on the ride and handling? 7. The rear of the body of the QX60 is actually narrower than the Pathy, which is why they couldn’t squeeze the extra seat back there. The roofline is actually lower as well. On that note, I think they will offer some kind of upgrade power train at some point, most likely electrified. Also, although I think the interior is stunning and has a decent feature set… I can see where Infiniti has left some room to play above the Autograph model. I look forward to how they build off of this very solid base.

If this is what Infiniti has in store, I’m excited to see what’s next. Considering most Infiniti vehicles are built off the same platforms as their sister brand, Nissan, I’m sure Infiniti has an electrified SUV coming considering Nissan has the new Ariya EV.
I LOVE the looks of this thing. I'm juts worried if Infiniti can hold up considering how low their volume of vehicles are. Hope this will signify a new beginning
I think they can, but only for a few years. They need to remake the small lineup they have, like redesign the q50 and qx50 and qx80. And they should add flagships back, like the q70 and make a flagship out of the qx70
They only have about 3,500 new vehicles available across the country. Less than 200 QX60s and over 10,000 were pre-ordered. This will also bring folks in for the QX50 & QX55 to get many residual sales if they don't need so much space.
Wow!!!!!! That's One Clean & Beautiful Looking SUV From Infiniti. Also I'm Totally Love The Exterior & The Interior, But I Love The Design As Well, Great Review Sofyan.
This and the Genesis GV80 are the 2 best looking. ( THATS MY OPINION ) & if they would put a Variation of the 3.0T V6 from the RedSport hmm. Also the Middle panel in the back that you removed can go in the cargo box in the trunk. Ive seen it on other reviews that people took it out and it fits back in there.
I really like it. While Infiniti has been known for their lack of tech, they have always provided a great handling experience and great sounding engines. Hope this vehicle is their foundation from which they stage their comeback. Great vehicle. With all the competition in this segment I think it comes down to quality materials and dealership experience. I also love the new Genesis vehicles but they seem to suffer in both those areas
I read elsewhere the reason for the narrow third row was because the qx80 has a more pinched waistline than the pathfinder which ate into rear interior space.
Which competitor offers "better 3rd row seating'?. have you tried using the X5/Q7/GV80/MDX/RX450 rear seats?? They are practically unusable.. the only decent 3rd row is Palisade/Telluride.
I sat in all 3 rows in the Palisade I bought, to see if the reviews were correct. That is one reason why I got it. Plus no Tellurides to buy, since they were sold out, before hitting the dealer lots. Palisade is its sister, just more modern looking, with a few more buttons. So I got the Palisade.
Infiniti is back baby!! This is really impressive.... This is sort of the non sporty MDX, which is a awesome thing! But it's look... Is better than the MDX... Inside an out... And the screen is touch screen! Massaging seats, everything I would want! And the price.. Mmm very good
Can't really be too picky with this car. Its more of a luxury SUV over a performance SUV. 6.3 seconds 0-60 in a big ass tank is insanely good considering its a NA V6. Infiniti has always done amazing with exterior styling. Glad to see their interior styling is picking up.
2nd row captains chairs in these SUV's with, basically, unusable 3rd rows always baffle me. It's like the manufacturers are saying, "Lets minimize 2nd rows, that can possibly be comfortable for 3 people, because I'm sure someone wants to sit in the uncomfortable 3 row with their knees in their chins."
@@MerknilashWell, kids don't stay small forever nor are they the only ones you may haul in your vehicle. Also, people are keeping vehicles a lot longer and kids are always growing. So, if I had 3 kids (teens), I would much rather have a three person 2nd row bench and keep the 3rd row folded for extra storage...
This was amazing, one of the best looking 7 passenger luxury crossovers offered today hands down, Infiniti Killed it. Sexy, spacious, and efficient. But the only thing killing is that exhaust system.
that dual exhaust chrome like cover in the back !!! what the hell !!! they either make it real function or just don't bother !! those silly designers !! doesn't look good ?! ... Luxury should have nothing fake 0 fake accessories .. the only design I respect .. front fake vent shouldn't be there .. fog light or nothing at all !!!
At one point to I had to pause and check the title to make sure that I click on Nissan Pathfinder 2022. He mentioned Pathfinder so much more than QX60, you would have thought that was the subject being reviewed.
I really dig this car and want one but the prices are just too damn high The two tone color is only available in the top of the line trim which is going to cost you around 70k by the time you walk out the door because of all the sealer addons etc
just wanted to add that you can get a full map screen. There is a button on the left side of the main map screen to expand the map screen to full width.
I generally like big cars but I had a prior gen as a loaner many years ago and I hated it. The cvt and the weak engine made the car noisy and ponderous. Road noise was loud and the ride wasn’t particularly great. I was so surprised bc I see so many of these cars in my neighborhood that I had very high expectations. This new gen seems much improved, but based on my prior experience and as a previous owner of a q50, I don’t think I’ll ever get another Infiniti. They’re very cheaply made and not worth the premium. I only got the q50 bc of the incredible lease deal.
@@Wasabi9111 Interesting that you found it noisy. I test drove a couple of qx60's and MDX's back to back and found the MDX noisier, less comfortable, and unusable 3rd row. Mdx definitely had better acceleration and handling.
@@Wasabi9111 Yea bro youre talking about the prior gen so what would it have to do with this brand new vehicle? Just because they share a badge? Apples and oranges my friend
Yeah, for the ride, handling and interior room there's no comparison with the MDX. Plus the MDX can rise up to 9" with the air suspension which is a big deal as I live in ski country.
Jeesh, finally got that CVT removed, and the infotainment finally looks up-to-date! I personally think the CVT performs pretty well, but it’s way too loud.
Nice review Sofyan !!! Loving ❤ the new style of the Qx60 ,but they better keep up with the new dogs in town Genesis !!! Otherwise they gonna be left in the dust. Infiniti has a lot of catch up to do.
I still prefer real exhaust and real climate control buttons on the MDX over fake exhause and fake buttons in the QX60. If a button breaks in the MDX, the other buttons will remain fine and you only fix that one button. But if the capacitive panel in the QX60 breaks, then it's the whole panel that cannot be used until it gets fixed. IMO, the best recent Infiniti interior is the 2022 QX80 refresh
Your comments about the vehicle was very honest and I'm thinking of buying one it looks good I know it's good it's not perfect but it's good thank you so much
Not really reasonably priced considering 90% of this thing is the same as the Pathfinder. The engine is anything but luxurious. Super underpowered for the price. Interior is decent, but still just a Pathfinder in disguise.
It’s actually not more spacious than the MDX, this has 14.5 cubic feet with the third row up and the MDX has 18 cubic feet of space with the third row up. With the third row folded down, the MDX is at 95 cubic feet while the QX60 is at 75.4 cubic feet.
What is the point of digital rear mirrors? It's just extra cost and your brain can pick up on very slight differences in frame rate that just makes it more tiring and less trustworthy than a regular mirror
Definitely a step in the right direction. I hope they didn't screw up their reputation by using that CVT for a couple years. No Infiniti should feature that crappy transmission. Now I'm hopeful that I can stick with the brand. Once they redesign everything else, they should really bring back the G, FX, and EX names. Also, imagine if they went back to a rear wheel drive layout? If they really want to get back to their routes, they should go back to their sporty times. Infiniti was the BMW competitor, I hope they can figure out their market calling.
So, the new QX60 is better than the new MDX and RX, but it's behind the Genesis GV80. Who would have thought that GV80 would become such a great 3-row luxury crossover. Only issue I have with Genesis - is the price. It's priced quite high..
Vast improvement for INFINITI, and I do really like the interior. However, refinement and ride quality wise it is still at the bottom of the segment with the XT6. The X5, MDX, GLE, XC90 and GV80 are still the dominators of the segment.
The XT6 honestly doesn’t compare with this. I’ve sat in them side by side and quality of the Cadillac leaves a lot to be desired and doesn’t feel like premium vehicle. The MDX is comparable to this but doesn’t feel as comfortable or luxurious in the upper trim, the XC90 is getting old and power train is not refined enough for a vehicle in this category in my opinion.
Yeah, but you aren't paying as much money for it as you are for a GLE or an X5. Price is one thing to keep in mind, especially in the days of the pandemic.
Looks way better than the Acura MDX Interior is very similar to the Aviator and GV80...which means theyre on the right track Needed 22 inch rims though and a more powerful engine for the top trims...hopefully thats on the way
I would rather spend 30-35K and buy a fully loaded 3 row 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander SUV. Use the remaining 30K for Grubhub/Doordash orders so I get delish food delivered to me!
@@braetonwilson4296 Bro...nobody shopping in the luxury segment is gonna settle for a re-skinned Nissan Rogue The Outlander is an *AMAZING* value for its price But I think people looking at luxury cars dont have a budget of 35k max
I must say I’m very impressed, well done Infiniti👏🏻 Oh and by the way, you can enlarge the embedded map by touching the map button with the two outward facing arrows on the left of the screen. Great review as always, Sofyana!
I am still not impressed with Nissan/Infiniti... What happened, I mean I used to be a big fan boy when I was a kid and had posters pictures all over my wall of Nissan/Infiniti cars. The Korean cars are much stylish.
Honestly, I noticed that you are so biased to Honda and Acura, which so unprofessional. I have been following you for the past 2 years, but I just don't like your reviews anymore just because it is so clear that you biased for Acura and Honda.
With respect to the fake exhaust... I would rather see an attractive bumper with no exhaust. But I much prefer an *obviously* fake exhaust like this over the chrome-ringed black plastic that's supposed to look like an exhaust.
Great review! I'm now down to this or the 2023 Palisade. This will be a family vehicle, therefore I like all the features/room of the Palisade which I almost purchase a 2022. I've yet to get inside a new QX60. Any additional insight following the NY Autoshow?
Those are the most embarrassing fake exhaust tips in the history of automotive design. They are so shockingly bad, it's a deal breaker. What was Infiniti thinking???
pleaseeeee xfinity just as it poorer brother Nissan are nothin but a joke. They should pack up and leave and after a few years if and that is a big IF they come up with a innovative product that may shock the world then come back. In the meantime, stay the heck away. At this point yous are embarrassing yourselves
Talk more about the chip shortage and you won't be able to buy this car. And why is everything a subscription deal now?? Huh? Why can't we just buy something anymore
I wonder why everything has to result to being force fed Hyundai Motors products. I actually love what Nissan has done here with the Infiniti QX60, it was a long time coming! It’s time for a Cadillac XT6 refresh and this should stack up nicely against that, Lexus RX-L, and the Acura MDX.
No one is being forced to like Hyundai products,maybe if you weren’t so close minded and biased you would realize that Hyundai has been making excellent vehicles now,it’s part of the auto industry,when Toyota and Honda were relatively new brands in the 80s they got the same respect Hyundai and Kia are getting nowadays, Nissans of today are like the Chevys of the 80s and 90s,90s Chevys were inferior to Honda and Toyota and now in the 2020s Nissan is the inferior automakers compared to newcomers from Hyundai and Kia
@@joskjj3625 Hyundai Motors isn’t the only brand making excellent vehicles in North America now. They aren’t even the *best* at anything here, in fact they get new ideas from everyone else to improve. No real innovation, but everything is compared to them as if they are the standard of cars, and they are far from it. It has nothing to do with close mindedness and I have no reason(s) to be biased.
@@mybro727 I didn’t say that Hyundai motor group was the only automaker making good products did I, please read next time it’s not that hard,what I’m saying is that Hyundai and Kia are in the same league as Toyota now
@@mybro727 I don’t see anything special about Nissan,they have the same quality and reliability as a 1990s Chevy economy car and are a far cry from what they used to be,only innovative thing Nissan did in the modern era was having a ceo single handily nearly destroy an automotive giant,not even the Detroit automakers can do that

With luxury cars and especially SUV’s you should focus a lot more on cabin noise and ride quality/comfort.. maybe get a decibel measuring device?
He usually does, at least he usually says when it’s not a comfortable ride or a lot of road/tire noise etc. I take it when he doesn’t complain or mention it that it’s pretty good.
It’s called a sound level meter :-) calling it a dB measuring device would be like calling a ruler an inch measuring device :-) dB are the units.

@@eliasmejia7862 I think you are wrong Infiniti killed both the Q50 and Q60. No more 2023 for both
@@DiaperSNiFFER the q50 and 60 did get discontinued but you are wrong they do have a sedan in the works not a q50 but a new sedan

Wow!!!!!! That's One Clean & Beautiful Looking SUV From Infiniti. Also I'm Totally Love The Exterior & The Interior, But I Love The Design As Well, Great Review Sofyan.
From exterior to interior this SUV is 😍😍😍
This and the Genesis GV80 are the 2 best looking. ( THATS MY OPINION )
& if they would put a Variation of the 3.0T V6 from the RedSport hmm.
Also the Middle panel in the back that you removed can go in the cargo box in the trunk. Ive seen it on other reviews that people took it out and it fits back in there.
Infiniti does offer automatic start through the app! I use mine all the time, and I have 2017.
I really like it. While Infiniti has been known for their lack of tech, they have always provided a great handling experience and great sounding engines. Hope this vehicle is their foundation from which they stage their comeback. Great vehicle. With all the competition in this segment I think it comes down to quality materials and dealership experience.
I also love the new Genesis vehicles but they seem to suffer in both those areas
People just can't be original to save their lives. Autograph vs Autobiography
I am 5.9 and can sit in all three rows comfortably... That is why the seats slide folks!
I read elsewhere the reason for the narrow third row was because the qx80 has a more pinched waistline than the pathfinder which ate into rear interior space.
Which competitor offers "better 3rd row seating'?. have you tried using the X5/Q7/GV80/MDX/RX450 rear seats?? They are practically unusable.. the only decent 3rd row is Palisade/Telluride.
I sat in all 3 rows in the Palisade I bought, to see if the reviews were correct. That is one reason why I got it. Plus no Tellurides to buy, since they were sold out, before hitting the dealer lots. Palisade is its sister, just more modern looking, with a few more buttons. So I got the Palisade.
The decent 3rd row can be find in Subrau accents.
I just got one. It does get noticed, gets compliments and is very roomy for the size. It is thirsty though.
Infiniti is back baby!!
This is really impressive.... This is sort of the non sporty MDX, which is a awesome thing!
But it's look... Is better than the MDX... Inside an out... And the screen is touch screen!
Massaging seats, everything I would want! And the price.. Mmm very good
You are easily impressed. You can get more bang for your buck elsewhere.
Can't really be too picky with this car. Its more of a luxury SUV over a performance SUV. 6.3 seconds 0-60 in a big ass tank is insanely good considering its a NA V6. Infiniti has always done amazing with exterior styling. Glad to see their interior styling is picking up.
I think the fake chrome exhaust looking shit has to go. It's not a nice looking trend
Chrome fake tips look good 😂 how much did Infiniti pay you guys
2nd row captains chairs in these SUV's with, basically, unusable 3rd rows always baffle me. It's like the manufacturers are saying, "Lets minimize 2nd rows, that can possibly be comfortable for 3 people, because I'm sure someone wants to sit in the uncomfortable 3 row with their knees in their chins."
It’s for kids or storage
@@MerknilashWell, kids don't stay small forever nor are they the only ones you may haul in your vehicle. Also, people are keeping vehicles a lot longer and kids are always growing. So, if I had 3 kids (teens), I would much rather have a three person 2nd row bench and keep the 3rd row folded for extra storage...
"No fog lights! I'm surprised to see there's no fog lights!"
Is equivalent to:
"No CD-ROM deck, I'm surprised to see there's no place for CD-ROMs!"
You not going to see that in any brand anymore
Copy your CD to the computer. Then download to a USB device. Bingo.
This was amazing, one of the best looking 7 passenger luxury crossovers offered today hands down, Infiniti Killed it. Sexy, spacious, and efficient. But the only thing killing is that exhaust system.
that dual exhaust chrome like cover in the back !!! what the hell !!! they either make it real function or just don't bother !! those silly designers !! doesn't look good ?! ... Luxury should have nothing fake 0 fake accessories .. the only design I respect .. front fake vent shouldn't be there .. fog light or nothing at all !!!
At one point to I had to pause and check the title to make sure that I click on Nissan Pathfinder 2022. He mentioned Pathfinder so much more than QX60, you would have thought that was the subject being reviewed.
This intro was everything. You ate that Sofiyan!❤️🔥
I thought the factory GPS map can be displayed on drivers instrument cluster and the map can be expanded with map button.
it can he just doesn't know about it
I really dig this car and want one but the prices are just too damn high
The two tone color is only available in the top of the line trim which is going to cost you around 70k by the time you walk out the door because of all the sealer addons etc
I mean if you knock them off you can probably get it closer to MSRP
just wanted to add that you can get a full map screen. There is a button on the left side of the main map screen to expand the map screen to full width.
Although it’s a major upgrade from the previous generation i still wouldn’t pick it over the competitor’s
I generally like big cars but I had a prior gen as a loaner many years ago and I hated it. The cvt and the weak engine made the car noisy and ponderous. Road noise was loud and the ride wasn’t particularly great. I was so surprised bc I see so many of these cars in my neighborhood that I had very high expectations. This new gen seems much improved, but based on my prior experience and as a previous owner of a q50, I don’t think I’ll ever get another Infiniti. They’re very cheaply made and not worth the premium. I only got the q50 bc of the incredible lease deal.
Agreed. To much competition in the three row segment... Genesis, Lincoln, etc.
@@Wasabi9111 Interesting that you found it noisy. I test drove a couple of qx60's and MDX's back to back and found the MDX noisier, less comfortable, and unusable 3rd row. Mdx definitely had better acceleration and handling.
@@Wasabi9111 currently own a 2018 infiniti and will never buy another infiniti again. cant wait to get rid of it
@@Wasabi9111
Yea bro youre talking about the prior gen so what would it have to do with this brand new vehicle?
Just because they share a badge?
Apples and oranges my friend
👍🏽 solid work. I’d like to see a mild hybrid in this ride.
I bought the 2023 Sensory QX60. Plenty of power for me. Enjoying the luxury features and I feel the stying is superior to the completion.
Wow I have a G37s, but I'm liking this. It's a shame they didn't put the 3.7 in it or the 3.0. I seen 3.7 modified up to about 350 whp
Can't go wrong with buying this, but I still would pick the MDX!!!!
1000% the MDX
Hell no
Yeah, for the ride, handling and interior room there's no comparison with the MDX. Plus the MDX can rise up to 9" with the air suspension which is a big deal as I live in ski country.
Sofyan has to be the only person on Earth who has complained that a bottom door light isn’t LED.
I love this design so much I’m thinking about getting one!
About time Infiniti..
I agree they need to allow you to use full screen apple CarPlay. Ridiculous that your forced to that 2/3 screen.
Jeesh, finally got that CVT removed, and the infotainment finally looks up-to-date! I personally think the CVT performs pretty well, but it’s way too loud.
Nice review Sofyan !!! Loving ❤ the new style of the Qx60 ,but they better keep up with the new dogs in town Genesis !!! Otherwise they gonna be left in the dust. Infiniti has a lot of catch up to do.
I still prefer real exhaust and real climate control buttons on the MDX over fake exhause and fake buttons in the QX60. If a button breaks in the MDX, the other buttons will remain fine and you only fix that one button. But if the capacitive panel in the QX60 breaks, then it's the whole panel that cannot be used until it gets fixed. IMO, the best recent Infiniti interior is the 2022 QX80 refresh
Hmmmmm this one or the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland 2 row with the V8 hemi???? Decisions…Decisions
So glad Infiniti is trying again
Your comments about the vehicle was very honest and I'm thinking of buying one it looks good I know it's good it's not perfect but it's good thank you so much
Really nice! And reasonably priced. Def more spacious than the MDX. It's a Pathfinder in lipstick, but there's nothing really wrong with that.
Looks way better inside and out though
Looks more distinguished than the boring MDX
Not really reasonably priced considering 90% of this thing is the same as the Pathfinder. The engine is anything but luxurious. Super underpowered for the price. Interior is decent, but still just a Pathfinder in disguise.
It may not have the power but the interior blows the MDX out of the water.
@@davis6123 yep. If you need a people mover get this over MDX.
It’s actually not more spacious than the MDX, this has 14.5 cubic feet with the third row up and the MDX has 18 cubic feet of space with the third row up. With the third row folded down, the MDX is at 95 cubic feet while the QX60 is at 75.4 cubic feet.
What is the point of digital rear mirrors? It's just extra cost and your brain can pick up on very slight differences in frame rate that just makes it more tiring and less trustworthy than a regular mirror
Looks great. I hope this car is the beginning of a turn for the better for Infiniti.
Definitely a step in the right direction. I hope they didn't screw up their reputation by using that CVT for a couple years. No Infiniti should feature that crappy transmission. Now I'm hopeful that I can stick with the brand. Once they redesign everything else, they should really bring back the G, FX, and EX names. Also, imagine if they went back to a rear wheel drive layout? If they really want to get back to their routes, they should go back to their sporty times. Infiniti was the BMW competitor, I hope they can figure out their market calling.
You cant forget the m as well qx60 should be jx qx80 qx
So, the new QX60 is better than the new MDX and RX, but it's behind the Genesis GV80. Who would have thought that GV80 would become such a great 3-row luxury crossover. Only issue I have with Genesis - is the price. It's priced quite high..
No it’s behind the MDX and gv80 but way ahead of the RX
YaY no more CVT now for the lower end models to get it
GPS map on instrument cluster is a feature you should be able to turn on in settings, I have a Platinum Rogue that does have the feature
I can’t wait to get this in 6 years for $20k
Yeppp
Pathfinder is more rugged looking where the Infiniti is more sleek which is fitting for each.
Vast improvement for INFINITI, and I do really like the interior. However, refinement and ride quality wise it is still at the bottom of the segment with the XT6. The X5, MDX, GLE, XC90 and GV80 are still the dominators of the segment.
Yeah I just saw a GV80 today in black & Hyundai did a great job that truck looked really nice
The MDX isnt even up there with the X5 or GLE though 😂
The XT6 honestly doesn’t compare with this. I’ve sat in them side by side and quality of the Cadillac leaves a lot to be desired and doesn’t feel like premium vehicle. The MDX is comparable to this but doesn’t feel as comfortable or luxurious in the upper trim, the XC90 is getting old and power train is not refined enough for a vehicle in this category in my opinion.
Yeah, but you aren't paying as much money for it as you are for a GLE or an X5. Price is one thing to keep in mind, especially in the days of the pandemic.
@@colinwillis3392 Very true
actually no gv80 is smaller than the qx60.
Looks way better than the Acura MDX
Interior is very similar to the Aviator and GV80...which means theyre on the right track
Needed 22 inch rims though and a more powerful engine for the top trims...hopefully thats on the way
I would rather spend 30-35K and buy a fully loaded 3 row 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander SUV. Use the remaining 30K for Grubhub/Doordash orders so I get delish food delivered to me!
@@braetonwilson4296
Bro...nobody shopping in the luxury segment is gonna settle for a re-skinned Nissan Rogue
The Outlander is an *AMAZING* value for its price
But I think people looking at luxury cars dont have a budget of 35k max
disagree. MDX interior looks much better. No comparison on the power and interior room either.
I must say I’m very impressed, well done Infiniti👏🏻 Oh and by the way, you can enlarge the embedded map by touching the map button with the two outward facing arrows on the left of the screen. Great review as always, Sofyana!
Infiniti needs to bring a full EV or bring back an old name plate to bring attention to the brand again!
Looks really classy. Reminds me a little of the new Buick Envision from the front.
I am still not impressed with Nissan/Infiniti... What happened, I mean I used to be a big fan boy when I was a kid and had posters pictures all over my wall of Nissan/Infiniti cars.
The Korean cars are much stylish.
Yeah I'd choose the Genesis GV80 or even the Lincoln Aviator over this in a heartbeat.
Honestly, I noticed that you are so biased to Honda and Acura, which so unprofessional. I have been following you for the past 2 years, but I just don't like your reviews anymore just because it is so clear that you biased for Acura and Honda.
You can expand the GPS map.. There is a button on the lower left of the map screen to expand the map
Its gorgeous 😍💙
Those 'exhaust' tips ruined the rear end, and why are they not hiding the rear wiper under the top of the rear glass?
The map will go full-screen, you have to click a certain option. I did it on a test drive.
Infiniti needs to work on their full size sedan 💯💯
Is the horn at least louder than the Pathfinder?
With respect to the fake exhaust... I would rather see an attractive bumper with no exhaust. But I much prefer an *obviously* fake exhaust like this over the chrome-ringed black plastic that's supposed to look like an exhaust.
You don't hand to leave the center console in the garage. In the trunk, the storage compartment has a specific space to place it in.
Great review! I'm now down to this or the 2023 Palisade. This will be a family vehicle, therefore I like all the features/room of the Palisade which I almost purchase a 2022. I've yet to get inside a new QX60. Any additional insight following the NY Autoshow?
Great video as always, guys! Please review the Toyota Highlander XSE, next!
I have heard of issues with the head system and leaky sunroof.
Both my current cars have V6 engines and I prefer that over a turbo, I want my next car to be a V6 hybrid no turbos
Great job on the review, infiniti should really update the infotainment software so we can get full screen CarPlay.
Finally Infiniti got this right. Just add a new engine option from the Z would be awesome. Needs 400 hp
Those are the most embarrassing fake exhaust tips in the history of automotive design.
They are so shockingly bad, it's a deal breaker. What was Infiniti thinking???
Man I love the interior and the drive quality very smooth
pleaseeeee xfinity just as it poorer brother Nissan are nothin but a joke. They should pack up and leave and after a few years if and that is a big IF they come up with a innovative product that may shock the world then come back. In the meantime, stay the heck away. At this point yous are embarrassing yourselves
The Fake Quad Exaust in the rear should've been real or the real chrome design exhaust covers with no exhaust inside it.
Back to their true roots!
Gorgeous!
You can remote start from the app.
Talk more about the chip shortage and you won't be able to buy this car. And why is everything a subscription deal now?? Huh? Why can't we just buy something anymore
We own this vehicle and it is absolutely fabulous. No complaints over here.
‘22 MDX for me, anytime anyday! but its nice to have choices😊
Looks nice & luxurious
I wonder why everything has to result to being force fed Hyundai Motors products. I actually love what Nissan has done here with the Infiniti QX60, it was a long time coming! It’s time for a Cadillac XT6 refresh and this should stack up nicely against that, Lexus RX-L, and the Acura MDX.
No one is being forced to like Hyundai products,maybe if you weren’t so close minded and biased you would realize that Hyundai has been making excellent vehicles now,it’s part of the auto industry,when Toyota and Honda were relatively new brands in the 80s they got the same respect Hyundai and Kia are getting nowadays, Nissans of today are like the Chevys of the 80s and 90s,90s Chevys were inferior to Honda and Toyota and now in the 2020s Nissan is the inferior automakers compared to newcomers from Hyundai and Kia
@@joskjj3625 Hyundai Motors isn’t the only brand making excellent vehicles in North America now. They aren’t even the *best* at anything here, in fact they get new ideas from everyone else to improve. No real innovation, but everything is compared to them as if they are the standard of cars, and they are far from it. It has nothing to do with close mindedness and I have no reason(s) to be biased.
@@mybro727 I didn’t say that Hyundai motor group was the only automaker making good products did I, please read next time it’s not that hard,what I’m saying is that Hyundai and Kia are in the same league as Toyota now
@@mybro727 I don’t see anything special about Nissan,they have the same quality and reliability as a 1990s Chevy economy car and are a far cry from what they used to be,only innovative thing Nissan did in the modern era was having a ceo single handily nearly destroy an automotive giant,not even the Detroit automakers can do that
@@joskjj3625 You believe Hyundai is of the same league as Toyota. Great! What’s your point, do you have one?
