I bought a 2022 QX60 luxe six months ago. I love my QX60. I tested drive MDX as well. However, QX60 is more family oriented. It has 360 camera on Luxe which make parking so easy. If the primary driver is a female, I recommend QX60.

I have the MDX A-Spec and I have gotten use to the trackpad. Where ever you place your finger on the pad. It will appear on the screen in the same location as the pad. Oh I also think the MDX looks better. It handles extremely well. In America the top MDX is called the MDX Type S Advanced

[@TheBreakfastLover]

yeah, what many car reviewers fail to recognize is owners develop muscle memory using Acura's trackpad. Once you get past the 1-week or so learning curve, it's actually less distracting to use than a touch screen.

[@Mikel0318]

I agree. I just picked up an Aspec last week, and the lack of a touch screen was a big factor for me at first, but after about 40 minutes of testing and watching a couple youtube videos, I felt that the system is very intuitive. However, I do wish they offered a touchscreen in addition to the TTP interface especially when using Android Auto. Again, not everyone will have the same degree of familiarity when it comes to technology....hence the argument of Apple (simplicity) vs Android (customization) crowds.

[@MikeYurbasovich]

​@@Mikel0318the technology portion of a vehicle isn't much of a consideration for a buyer like myself. The less, the better. A nice stereo system, interior quality, reliability, performance, looks, road noise are way more important than touch pads.

[@Mikel0318]

@Mike many of today's cars will for better or worse continue to include more and more technology. The difference will be in the implementation. That said, everyone will have their own take and preferences.

[@blackwhirlwind1245]

I would be okay with Acura’s True Touch Pad for the most part, but when you use Apple CarPlay, it’s completely different, CarPlay is designed for people to use touch screen in their car’s’ infotainment screen, but Acura doesn’t offer touch screen for Apple CarPlay is really annoying, if Acura just moves screens forward allows touch screen for CarPlay and Android auto, but keep touch pad for Acura system, I would be 100% okay with it.

The MDX is my favourite looking SUV on the market, would love to own a used one in a few years

[@bigd7386]

The QX60's presence really can't be captured on camera. The first time I saw one on the road in the exact color/spec you have in this video and I literally said "Damn" outloud. I wouldn't say 100k, but it definitely looks expensive. I also think they both have very nice interiors, but the MDX has WAY too much piano black plastic and looks too busy overall. The QX60 looks simple but still luxurious.

Sam, another great review to compliment what is already one of the best automotive channels on the internet. Two very interesting competitors. Yes price is a real discussion point here, but factor in the superior powertrain of the MDX Type S, the Brembo brakes, SH-AWD with torque vectoring, Air Ride Suspension, 21" Wheels, 25 Speaker ELS Sound System, Front seat Massagers, this gap starts to make more sense. Get inside and drive the two back to back, from a sporty drive and engaging stand point the MDX is the clear winner, from a flat out usability and luxurious surrounding the Infiniti does a great job for the money. Thanks again for a great review.

[@SamCarLegion]

Thank you Chris

[@ks-vq5er]

QX60 way better for sure. They did a great job with this QX60

[@s.patterson5698]

Both are good vehicles. If you are looking for something with a more luxurious exterior, then the QX60 is for you (except for that front grille that just doesn't compliment the overall design. They should rotate it upside down, where the grille base is narrower than the top. Visually, it would complete the really great Range Rover-esque look it has) If you are looking for something more sporty, then the MDX is it. Not only is the exterior sporty looking, but when you sit behind the wheel, it's like you are in a cockpit. THAT was what sold me. My wife and I left our house to go buy a QX60, but on the way, we stopped by the Acura dealership just to compare before we bought the QX60. When we sat behind the wheel, my wife and I looked at each other, and we instantly knew that that pretty Range Rover-esque look of the QX60 wouldn't end up in our driveway. Additionally, while both vehicles are roughly the same size, in test driving them, the MDX felt more like a sedan, not necessarily in ride softness but more so in handling, which was especially important to my wife. She was already worried about the size of the QX60, and then the MDX when she saw it from the outside. But when she drove it, she felt totally comfortable. We are now 6 week old MDX owners. Like, I said, both are nice, but sometimes it just boils down to what fits your personality and drive style. Finally, the touchpad is a total non issue. Ergonomically, it is perfectly located and a breeze to use. I don't get the hate people have, but to each his own...might be a left brain right brain kind of thing. However, I do agree that Acura SHOULD have also made it a touchscreen. From a business standpoint, it only makes sense. They are stubbornly bucking against the trend where people assume that anything touchscreen simply means its better. Acura doesn't understand that people tend to follow the crowd, and it simply becomes a snowball effect...a prominent reviewer says he doesn't like the touchpad and like a subliminal message people adopt that narrative without giving the touchpad a serious chance. This is not a fight Acura will win. They will cave...the snowball is gathering mass...but personally, I LOVE my touchpad. 😀

[@lane5686]

Thank you for this in-depth comparison. Infiniti products have poorer resale value than Acura and Lexus. Not to mention that Nissan is infamous for cvt engines, which was why a lot of QX60 models were recalled on their launch.

[@mat13174]

[@precisionmotors]

MDX Needs 6 Feet's away before the Trunk Closes. Other than that Amazing Review, I would buy MDX over Infinity any day. They are too slow to adopt to new technology and don't stand behind their Product like Honda and Toyota.

[@brianb4501]

Interesting, you say that I find Acura/Honda behind when it comes to tech/infotainment. I.e. They took forever to adapt a keyless ignition in the mdx.

[@Mikel0318]

I was shopping both of these also, but ended up with the MDX Aspec. Ultimately, these two SUVs will cater to different crowds. In terms of driving dynamics, Acura is hands down much more refined and agile/fun to drive. While Infiniti is more soft and comfortable. Overall Interior, I would give a slight nudge to Infiniti for better luxury amenities with the exception of the touch console as well as better usable 3rd row space. However, I went with a red interior, which Infiniti can't come close to for someone looking for a "luxury sport" aesthetic. As far as technology, I was in the same boat as many before I actually sat in and purchased the MDX. I did not like the TTP, and almost put off my purchase completely until I tried it for myself. The system is very intuitive until it comes to using the TTP with Android Auto in which it functions more like a traditional mouse. It didn't take long for me to figure it out and I do very much prefer it now over the touch screen when not using Android Auto. For the exterior, I tried to like the Infiniti, but it comes off as a "mom-mobile". Whereas the MDX really took off. Every time I see one on the road, I always have to turn my head to get a 2nd glance. In short, get what you like and what works for your life style. Many of these reviews will be very subjective to the individual reviewer. My best word of advice is to go on multiple test drives. Sit in the cars and ask questions. There really isn't a better way to get a sense of which one is right for you.

[@Jaykoolzboy]

Similar situation, but ended with Acura MDX A Spec because of ELS 3D Studio, Bose on the Infiniti is good , but ELS is just on another level.

[@s.patterson5698]

Totally agree with you. You were spot on in your comments. We shopped both and also ended up withe MDX. My wife was concerned about getting a big SUV, but when she drove the MDX it felt like a sedan in the way it nimbly handled curves, simply more driver oriented. While shopping online, we initially we leaned toward the more luxurious look of the QX60, but when we got behind the wheel of both vehicles, it was clear which fitted us best.

[@Sayrenad]

Same here. QX60 has a soccer mom look and feel or for older folks like 55+. For a young couple with small kids, the MDX will be really fun. I ended up buying the Acura.

[@chiemekaa]

If you want the driving dynamics, go for the MDX. If you want the comfort and more pliant ride, go for the QX60. I'm just glad Infiniti changed the color of that garish chrome diffuser thingy to a darkened gray. Acura needs to update the UI in the MDX with something similar to what they already have in the Accord and at this price point, they should both have ventilated 2nd row seats. As it stands, I prefer the QX60 just on the UI interaction which is a deal breaker for me in the MDX with its position touchpad.

[@thekingandi1705]

I looked at both (Advanced, not Type-S) and chose the QX60. The Acura was somewhat bland to me. In several ways, it just felt cheaper (in materials), and it rode more stiff and firm that didn't work for the luxury ride we were looking for. The Infiniti just felt right for us, but everyone is looking for something different. Can't go wrong with either!

This leaves the tailgate in standby mode until the user walks away (Approx. 6 feet from the rear of the vehicle) and activates the tailgate to close handsfree. If the green light is not activated nothing is engaged. Side note, if you have the remote key in your pocket along side of a cellular phone, the frequency becomes hampered due the two sharing the same space. acurahelp.ca/video.php?m=MDX-aspec&v=HandsFreeTailgate

QX60 is gorgeous, way luxurious than MDX

Qx60 has the same transmission found in the previous MDX, which has hurt the reputation of the MDX nameplate. MDX has an identity with the pentagon grill. As for the QX60, I see the QX60 in the mirror a few times and it resembles a Highlander

[@chrisholmes344]

QX 60's new ZF 9 Speed has way too much delay and lag. Very slow to engage from reverse to drive, along with rolling stops on a right hand turn, the transmission has a difficult time down shifting fast enough for the take off. Works, just super slow and frustrating. MDX's new 10 Speed is much more responsive.

[@joecool9739]

Infiniti has been using that grill design for 10 years though

[@lowKut]

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 earlier this summer to replace my 2020 Durango, the QX60 was among my top three choices. The MDX came in second for me.

I looked at both MDX Type S and Infiniti QX60 2023.

MDX has a much masculine sporting looks. Reason why I decided on the MDX. QX60 is a Mom's mobile.

[@northshorelax]

I don’t see that. Mine looks more like a range rover and hers looks like a lower car. The inside of qx60 is also much nicer. The seats are terrible in mdx. She needs to put padding all of her seats.

[@stronglikedan]

In the end the Infiniti is just another Nissan, while the MDX is just another Honda. I'll trust my safety to Honda over Nissan any day.

[@OhgodImtoosexy]

And Lexus is just Toyota; Audi is just VW; Genesis is just Hyundai; etc. What's your point? 🥴

[@pjdocva9884]

@@OhgodImtoosexy he can’t afford an Acura that’s why he’s just sticking with a Honda

[@odnamorvr3053]

While I will say Honda has proven itself to be more reliable than Nissan over the years, I will go on to say Infiniti has proven itself to be more reliable than Acura over the years.

There is a huge gap from Audi to VW but Lexus to Toyota, Acura to Honda the gap keeps shrinking. To me it doesn’t justify to pay the premium for it. I can happily pay for an Audi though if i m in for a luxury brand. Even Mercedes has Maybach as a higher ultimate luxury brand.

[@reggieburris]

You obviously favored the Infiniti. You didn’t give the MDX walk away function time to work. You didn’t walk away but you stay too close to the vehicle plus you kept pushing it. Acura looks better and has a way better reputation for quality. I’m skewed for Acura as it seems you obliviously was for Infiniti.

[@odnamorvr3053]

This isn't even a question. The Infiniti QX60 is the better car all around.

[@richardmyles8237]

acura mdx #1 seller 3 row seat SUV. It also like its Lexus rival have superior reliability. I own the MDX A Spec and it turns heads wherever i go. Its gorgeous and has an aggressive presence.

[@rickymultani65]

Infinity is trash 🗑 MDX MUCH BETTER CAR i head both off this car MDX 2018 and Infinity Qx60 2018 Infinity head so many problems only in 70k miles i sold Infinity i still have the MDX with 160k running still perfectly no problems at all

[@SamCarLegion]

This is the new infiniti don’t get confused

[@rickymultani65]

@Sam CarLegion i drive 40k tp 60k yearly i know what is good on road to reliability is only honda acura and Toyota lexus

[@odnamorvr3053]

Your comment is pointless. You are speaking about a 2018 Infiniti QX60 which is totally different from this redesigned updated QX60

Qx60 Forever!!

[@HeisaBenzMan]

Why do you, and other reviewers, continually mention Honda when showing the Acura MDX? Yet you never mentioned Nissan when showing the Infiniti QX60. It shares a lot with and is the bones of the Nissan Pathfinder. When you constantly mention Honda it detracts from the perceived value and luxury experience of the Acura product. Don't be so biased in your reviews. Oh and if you don't know how to activate the walk away tailgate then figure it out before doing your review. You left out so much including the superior AWD, SHAWD, of the Acura. Acura all day any day is a better performing, better looking, better designed and better resale value vehicle

[@cubanpete1290]

I am just starting to put all the Acura hate being transfered to Acura.

[@philipemekaorjiako5342]

I think this guy favors the infinity a bit too much 😂

[@rgocandel]

MDX is the king of the road, dominating the highways with its sleek design and unparalleled performance. With its superior handling and advanced technology, the MDX will make you feel like you're flying down the road with ease. And when it comes to reliability, the MDX leaves Nissan in the dust. You can trust that the MDX will get you where you need to go without a hitch, while Nissan may leave you stranded on the side of the road. So, if you're looking for a ride that's both cool and reliable, there's no better choice than the MDX.

[@bassy09]

Yeah, OK...My 2011 G37 coupe has never ever left me stranded in the 170K (and counting) miles I've had it.

[@alengreen589]

yes they are 3 Row luxury SUV´s but they can´t compete with the American and European 3 Row luxury SUV´s. They are only good in their own Japanese luxury class.

[@cw4623]

Infiniti all the way. The MDX is severely lacking-- esp in driving comfort and ease.

[@UncleTonyshotsauce]

Acura have a better reliability

[@shoesters6298]

Mdx FTW

[@JasonLee-xg5ki]

say no to Nissan

[@navi947]

This infiniti best acura

[@danielordonez322]

Genesis gv80 vs these two ?

[@SamCarLegion]

GV80s 3rd row is absolutely useless

[@stanislavbelkin4179]

Biggest complain to Acura is the price tag. How the hell is that possible to have same price on MDX type S as for BMW X3 M40i? How? With all respect to Acura ,it is Japanese car and it can not be as expensive as German rivalry, what is the point of taking Acura when BMW X3 M40i and X5 40i will cost you about same or slightly more money?

[@lalocastro7879]

With that read infiniti just get the new pathfinder

[@codymcnary3607]

The Acura with all its Tech Dates itself! I am a Minimalist for a reason and I doubt that both of these DISPOSABLE Cameras on Wheels will be at any Car show or Cars and Coffee 20 years from now; However at least Infiniti is trying to make a more Proper Luxury Car, Rear well Drive and more traditional than the “Front Wheel Drive” Brand, ACURA! Not everyone wants to drive a wanna be Tesla, or Smart Phone on Wheels with the Pussification Features that make modern Vehicles “Appliances”!!!!!!!!!

[@Cornbread-gi6kt]

Well, not really a fair comparison.

[@kevanneclarke3363]

U have to walk away from the car for it to close

[@badmandontdance]

Infiniti interior to my opinion looks bulky and the same throughout the years. Acura has changed and prefer the acura just because they are trying to evolve. Infiniti still stuck in the past.

Need to do more homework. Not hard to get in.
