New 2022 Infiniti QX55 Review // Is this enough for Infiniti?

#InfinitiQX55
#QX55
#CoupleCarReview
This is a Motormouth couple car review of the new Infiniti QX55 SUV. This compact crossover is what Infiniti calls a coupe, taking the existing QX50 and making a sportier looking design. Even though this new QX55 compact luxury utility has a sportier look, it still offers a lot of headroom, legroom and cargo capacity. This new QX55 SUV has a 2L turbo-charged 4 cylinder engine matched with a CVT and standard AWD with 268 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The only main competitor with more horsepower goes to the RDX with 272, but same amount of torque. QX55 design is inspired by the Infiniti FX model, which launched in 2003. This QX55 Shares the same platform, interior, powertrain and suspension with the QX50 SUV. Infiniti did not take the opportunity to update the transmission from a CVT to a conventional automatic or the in-dash infotainment system that looks rather dated compared to the current batch of premium compact SUVs. The main competitors to this new QX55 coupe SUV are the Mercedes GLC Coupe, BMW X4 and the Range Rover Evoque.

Is this enough to get you excited about Infiniti?

[@carfan7725]

No unfortunately not. I don't think a luxury brand should have a CVT.

[@cree8k]

After owning a 2016 Honda CRV, I'll pass on any car that has a CVT!

[@carbitch9498]

No

[@DctorSkillz1]

I'm sad they discontinued the QX30. For those that didn't know, it was a bargain GLA.

[@TML34]

How long before we see a recall on the vc engine? Nah, this is unnecessary tech. Just use a battery if you want better power and economy.

[@seikocitizenwatches]

The best looking and the most stylish Crossover Coupe on the market, far better than any other brands I have seen so far. Infiniti has nailed it in this segment.

Zack is so right, CVT is the stopping block, love everything except the CVT, no thanks😔

I have the 21 Altima VC-Turbo and I love it! It’s very smooth and very quick

The CVT in this segment is quite the failure. The CVT for Nissan is a tough sell, and an even tougher sell for a luxury SUV.

[@ItsChrisWorld]

Nissan/infinity’s dedication to their CVT was their downfall.

[@nolij7765]

Especially once it came out as unreliable. They should've gone back to a traditional auto and then tried reintroducing the CVT in a model after working the kinks out to get people to trust their CVTs again. It doesn't really matter to most people if their current CVTs are better than their old unreliable ones. People associate Nissan CVTs with junk. They needed to make a clean break from their terrible CVT.

Was their down fall??? It IS their downfall!

Love to see you guys again. Beautiful spring dress Andrea....Lucky man Zack....A few tears ago I was invited to the North American premiere of the NEW QX50 during the annual January Montreal International Car show by Infiniti Canada and my dealer Spinelli in the West Island. Those of you who know me on FB are familiar with my modified Red 2012 Infiniti G37xS Coupe...Anyway, I was impressed but I was also sad to see that this vehicle had IMHO 4 major issues: 1. The biggest, the CVT transmission...it seems almost like Nissan and Infiniti are trying to prevent the boat from sinking while they're clinging on to their life vests! 2. No power folding external mirrors...If you park in a downtown parking lot or on the street you know what I'm talking about. 3. Price or should I say out of the dealer invoice....It's high compared to the competition. 4. Carry over from the Q50/60 crappy infotainment system; it's laggy, slow, and sometimes it stalls. I'm not sure Infiniti besides the looks of this SUV improved much on the new QX55...So far I'm not seeing anything new other than the new rear. I do however like the new Nissan Pathfinder....a lot. I think that you could add the BMW X2 too. Sorry Infiniti, I'm keeping my 2018 BMW X1....

[@richardt2052]

Totally agree, there should be NO CVT in the premium luxury space!

[@7477238]

Great styling on this SUV both inside and out. Infiniti has always done the ride/handling combo very well which is why it's beyond me they used a CVT especially when great off the shelf 8, 9 and 10 speed units are available. The new 10 speed in the Honda/Acura vehicle lineup is brilliant. CVTs have their place in basic sub-compact or compact vehicles like the Nissan Kicks, Qashqai, Ford EcoSport and Hyundai Venue but not in something trying to be premium.

[@andreaspencer9813]

Yes, we agree!

Thank you glad you enjoyed it!

[@kmckenzie2461]

Wow! I love it. I love the look of the rear end and it would sell me on this like it did on both of our 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse SEL Touring’s with S-AWC. Oh and that front grill and front end looks amazing. I love these coupe type CUV-SUV styled vehicles. I also like dual screens even though some say it does seem a lil old school its what I like and I really like it here. I like the 2 screens vs 1 large one as it makes the dash and console styling so neat. As far as the CVT goes after owning CVT’s in all 5 of our Mitsubishi’s I could never go back to a regular automatic, dual clutch automatic or manual. A CVT is so smooth for everyday driving and works so much better on the interstate and climbing mountains and hills. I have owned 2 manuals, 6 regular automatics, and 5 CVT’s and I will take a CVT any day over the others and that is just my preference as it gives me what I am looking for in a vehicle. I like this red but with the red and black and interior. Wow!

[@jbblock7691]

I love your videos and I always appreciate you both very much, thank you ! I said this in another channel and I'll say it again about Infinity because I hope they're listening...I try never to say anything negative on the internet but I do sometimes feel like Infinity is deliberately trying to go out of business with design and budgeting decisions?! The upper instrument panel and dash in that 2022 Qx55 look identical to what was around in the year 2000....when I graduated high school. That dual screen setup wouldn't have even been cool back in 2000 especially considering they look like they're from completely different suppliers, it's even worse when you see it in person. Is it just me? Also why does it have to have "Infinity"spelled out, a foot and a half long across the back hatch in addition to a giant Infinity badge right below the exposed rear windshield wiper which clearly should have been engineered underneath the spoiler?! The motor and CVT sound like a vacuum cleaner with a fluctuating current. This car is expensive and would take a lot of someone's hard-earned money especially as shown at nearly 60k!?! I highly recommend anyone look at the competition.

I drive an FX45 and love it. Its not for everyone but for its era it was ahead of its time. It has handling and performance that rivals cars of today. Mine is the last gen of FX45...and was a 1 owner trade in with low miles for its age...its in fantastic condition. I like the QX55 but also think this is a bridge model. I think CVTs are getting better and fuel efficiency is more important than it was just days ago. Infiniti will sort out where that drive train goes...but I dont think it will be ..away. Thanks for your review.

[@DM-xt3rl]

Infiniti/Nissan has really fallen off........They just refuse to update the internals on their vehicles namely the interiors and transmission........I really like the exterior styling of this vehicle but the interior styling, tech and the CVT is an absolute no go. The FX35 was a great vehicle with looks that were ahead of its time but the fit and finish of the vehicle were not up to par back then either. The new QX70 better be a home run.........

What I like about this car is that it does not have a German engine. They are highly unreliable and I want a luxury SUV without the maintenance cost and issues of German cars. I am not a huge fan of the CVT but it’s not a deal breaker for me bc the exterior styling is EXCELLENT and the interior feels luxurious enough which is what I am wanting in a luxury crossover. I do agree that they should have went with an automatic transmission. I like the feeling in the steering wheel when it’s automatic transmission. Also, I have been waiting for SO LONG for a SEXY and aggressive-looking car that doesn’t look like a soccer mom car and isn’t German and is in my budget. The RDX and NX don’t do it for me personally. Very nice looking but just not what I have been waiting for. The Genesis GV70 is also on my radar. The QX55 definitely is on my list now for next vehicle purchase 😆

On the top QX55 Sensory trim you also get ProPILOT Assist (semi-autonomous driving), heated and cooled seats, and semi-aniline leather (a step up from leather)! The CVT also seems to be to be better tuned than the current QX50. Can't wait to see more of these on the road!

[@FrankyRedEyes]

Other brands didn't integrate variable compression engines due to longevity concerns. As a customer, VCR is a risky bit of tech I'm not willing to invest in as I keep my cars longer than the warranty period.

The problem is not just a CVT, it’s THE CVT. That particular CVT is really really bad and in some cars it just kept on breaking down again and again. Reliability is virtually nonexistent. And also this car shares the FWD platform with the MB GLA/GLB class. Not really up to the competition as many others in this price range has a longitudinal engine setup on a RWD/AWD platform.

While the outside looks amazing, the interior needs a massive overhaul and they need to get rid of the CVT.

[@kellingtonlink956]

As impressive as this is. Zack’s use of the word ‘Premium’ is appropriate. I don’t consider cars at less than $50,000 CAN ($60 for SUVs) to be classified as ‘Luxury’ cars. A Brand should not, by default, receive a luxury status throughout it’s lineup. The 3-series, C-class, A4’s and ES’s ... are certainly upscale/premium; but faux leather, heated/cooled seats, HUDs and a German (Japanese) Premium badges are just ‘not quite’ Luxury vehicles. They are simply .... achievable, disposable and generic. True Luxury feels special (like my past 7-series) every time you look at it , drive it or arrive. I like all Brands; but the Badge alone shouldn’t dictate a luxury status - unless your Badge says Rolls Royce, Aston Martin or Bentley. Despite these points; I do very much like this new Infiniti, quite a lot, for an upscale premium model. Great review. Sorry for the rant. Thanks for the video.
