I agree with you Joe about the flat black plastic wheel arches. I think they would look so much better if they were painted to match the body color just like it was on the previous generation. My guess is they did this to make the QX60 look more rugged & like it can handle some mild off-roading

I have the car. Tuxedo white. Third row has a lot of space if you have the second row not slid all the way to the back which is a convenience for second row passenger. Could use a few improvements but liked it better than the MDX. Also has an air purifier Raiti forgot to mention.

There are so many vehicles in the midsize luxury SUV segment, u have to divide them into 2. On one side u have the 2 row models.

BMW X5 Genesis GV80 Lexus Rx 3 row models: Cadillac XT6 Audi Q7 Infiniti QX60 Acura MDX Lincoln Aviator Lexus RX-L(4th generation)

I would have chosen the QX60 based on the look alone, The naturally aspirated V6 puts me over the top.

[@josephpayton5414]

The seats are gorgeous, though I’m sorry imo everything else about the MDX is better. And since I like sport, I’m going type S. Tech is equal on the 2 and for 65k no LED interior lighting? Black plastic around the fenders and bumpers? My aunt has a 2020 qx60 it has Painted bumpers and fenders. That’s minor though

[@cyberpun2552]

You pick an Mdx because of LED Interior? The are both the same price fully equipped, the qx60 is more powerful Faster in a quarter mile, has more towing capacity, more luxurious interior

[@josephpayton5414]

@@cyberpun2552 I picked the MDX type S specifically because I know they are about equal if u go for the MDX advanced. The MDX type S if I’m not mistaken does add some more power than a regular MDX and I like the styling better. This has to much mommy car into it. Or should I say it does look bland for my taste. Type S has a better presence to it imo and I have seen these in person and I still think that MDX is the better looking one.

[@brianlee9233]

The last gen QX60 was pretty much a Hit or Miss kind of vehicle, Infiniti really upped their game and did the right thing by getting rid of the CVT in the QX60 and the corporate cousin, the Nissan Pathfinder. Hopefully the new Altima doesn't have the CVT for much longer.

[@RaitisRides]

Very good way to look at it Brian.

[@lane5686]

Between the two, the MDX beats the QX60 in engine reliability and higher resale value after 5 years. The MDX should accelerate faster since it’s lighter in weight; it drives like a big sedan. The QX60 is heavier and bulkier so it would tow more and could handle rough weather better. It also costs less than the MDX so affordability is at play here. As for cabin, the QX60 lacks ambient lighting and isn’t as quiet as the MDX, but it is roomier and the infotainment system is touchscreen unlike the MDX. Everything else is subjective so it really depends on the individual’s preferences. Again, great video GOAT!

[@tonyspitfire06]

This is a VQ engine this engine is going to last you some time aka Nissan 3.5 liter V6
