No Longer The Luxury Minivan | Infiniti's All-New 2022 QX60

[@tri3pleagent]

Seems like a really good offering from Infiniti. I really like the interior design/layout and materials. Should be a solid competitor.

I like everything about this. I'll probably cross shop Grand Cherokee L & MDX but this is definitely the leader in the clubhouse. Passing on the top trim though because I dont want or need captains chairs.

[@gengstar09]

Infiniti has been taking “Ls” left and right. So happy to see a “W” for once. I hope this car revives the brand.

[@hellkitty1014]

Amazing upgrade over the outgoing model. Yes, the CVT should've never been put in as the only transmission option. But even more, there is a greater separation over the Pathfinder(or at least the Pathfinder roots are better hidden). And the interior is certainly primo. It is high on lux and logically laid out, with a decent amount of interior space. The only thing that are concerns for me is the Highlander-like rear styling and quite frankly, the two gorillas looming in the room: Genesis GV80 and Acura MDX. Did Infiniti do enough to bring it up to par against the competition? We shall see!

[@chiemekaa]

They need a higher performance engine for the Redsport to compete with the Type-S and the 3.5t GV80. I know customers will readily pay the premium.

[@UD747RED]

Great work from Infiniti, great look, much classy to the interior, and detailed review from Alex.

[@gulererd]

Great review. Alex does the most informative and useful reviews for the actual buyers like myself. Manufacturers take note. I've recently purchased a mid-size SUV and I got prepared by watching the latest review videos by Alex. Unfortunately, as of September 2021, if you need a vehicle right this moment you'll have to get what's available at the dealers and not all of them have inventory. If you have time, you can order and wait a few months. At least, that's the situation in NY.

[@MarkRVillano]

Nissan has spent the last decade shooting their Infiniti brand in the foot. Back in the early and mid 2000's I really thought that they were going places, (much like Genesis today). They had a hot little sedan in the G35, along with a very stylish SUV in the FX35, and FX45 which came with a V8. All of their vehicles offered style, performance, and luxury features that belied their sticker prices, (again; much like Genesis today). Since then they seem to have lost their way, driving the final nail into their coffin with those damned CVT's, and I don't know if they will ever get back the customers they have lost because of it. People usually make $60,000 mistakes only once.

[@smack9x]

The reality of the matter is the QX60 with a CVT is their best seller. G35 didn't really offer much luxury it was more like a small rwd Altima. FX35/45 was just a bloated station wagon version of the G35 with a tiny back seat. From a utility perspective it offered nothing, no cargo room because of raked roof design, and no towing capabilities. The CVT FWD replacement for FX35/QX70 has double the amount of sales, usable back seat, cargo room, higher towing capacity, and almost double the fuel efficiency. Their main issue they need to focus on are EV offerings.

[@VNCTHE1]

Don't forget Q45, 340hp beast.

[@bradnoakes5808]

An absolutely great job Infiniti.

[@incediery]

Another winner from the Nissan....the Rogue/Outlander Pathfinder/QX60 are solid entries...this QX60 will run off the lots with those incentives...its a jack of all trades and master of none and that's what sells

I have to say that this product feels fresh and luxurious. I am an owner of a 2021 Acura RDX and I have to say that, before this video, I was hands down going for the MDX for my wife's car (we are planning it soon), but now we will test drive them both. I have to say that, for me personally, the Acura has an edge on aesthetics outside for me (looks more aggressive) and the SH-AWD has always a big deal for me (mine has it so)... But I know my wife may prefer the soft ride and the family friendliness... will see. Thank you, Alex! Your reviews are always of an excellent quality!

[@AFCompany]

Test drive both but go with the MDX. You get more features and it handles and drives better.

[@MrSelvin78]

Even without sh-awd kind of mechanism,just with one drive,all reviewers are praising flat handling of new qx60.All immediately noticed no body roll/less body roll...Never saw reviews talks Mdx"s performance with respect to body roll much..So Qx60 did something extraordinary here

@@MrSelvin78 actually many reviewers have praised the new suspension design of the MDX and how great its handle is (not just the type S btw). But Alex (who is one of the best in my opinion for technical reviews) says that they are both similar w/o SH-AWD. Will see, I am willing to check and test drive them all before purchase :)

[@rohandeshmukh1711]

@ did you end up making a decision between mdx and qx60?

@@rohandeshmukh1711 we ended up taking the MDX for two main reasons: 1. We did liked it a bit better (though I have to say, very impressed with the QX60). It is mostly the style, the MDX was a bit smoother, a bit quicker, feels a bit smaller (and maybe it is)… very nice overall. 2. Availability. In my local dealerships for Infinity, the QX60 has a good waiting period (couple of months actually), while the exact configuration that we want of the MDX was available (aside of more options) immediately. Have to say, when the MDX Type S is available, I will check that for me (this is my wife’s car), because I was very impressed with it!

[@braut34]

I like that you stay on point with the review. I noticed no one talks about if the head rest are comfortable and the adjustments. Those dont look comfortable.

[@BenjoRealm]

Last month, I picked up a new 2022 Nissan Pathfinder which essentially the same car as this one, minus many of the luxury features. I'm very much enjoying it, and if I had the budget for the Infiniti model, I might've gone that route instead. I noticed the transmission quirks that Alex mentions in this video, mostly in the 1st to 2nd gear switch if the acceleration is at a certain rate, but otherwise it's smooth as butter and a huge improvement over any CVT I've driven. I'd never really been a fan of Infiniti's bulbous exterior and dainty interior styling, but this one is quite nice. Thanks for the vid Alex, it was quite informative, and now I'm actually glad I got the Pathfinder over waiting for this one just for the slightly larger storage area alone.

[@khanhnguyendue]

Hopefully not in the upper grille like the GV80 because it looks awful 🙁 And whoever designed the second row in the bmw x7 should take a hard look at how it should work in the QX60… it’s like watching paint dry in the x7 trying to get access to the third row 😒

[@asimahmad1054]

Thank you Alex. Your review on QX60 was super helpful. I cannot tell you how convenient it is to keep the child seat latched one while accessing the third row. True, hardly any manufacturer offers this feature. That was the main factor we chose QX60 over MDX even though I liked the driving dynamics of Acura more.

[@anthonys6657]

My wife and I really enjoyed our previous generation QX60. But we couldn’t wait any longer for the new model, so we bought a Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy. I really like the Hyundai, but I’m sort of eyeballing this new QX60. I miss the very quiet and enjoyable ride from the previous generation QX60. The Hyundai Palisade just doesn’t seem to light that fire for me right now. As my wife says, the Hyundai Palisade is like that person you dated that checked all your boxes, but didn’t quite get you very excited. I feel like this new QX60 could check all the boxes and be very exciting too. Thanks for the great review Alex.

[@garrettw99]

Between Jeep GC L, MDX, GV80, and QX60 I would probably choose the MDX. I care more about driving dynamics and the MDX is better in that regard and is still practical. Second would be the GV80, then QX60, lastly a top trim GC L. “Well done Nissan” is something I’ve never said before without sarcasm.

Gorgeous design (both interior and exterior), good MPGs, lots of features, reasonably spacious, probably very reliable, less expensive than the competition. With this car Infiniti has definitely stepped up their game. Looks better than the Lexus and Acura direct competitors. Man, this is definitely the car to go in this segment. I love this car.

[@thelarry383]

I hate the capacitive touch control trend on the interior

[@paulsantos6237]

Glad we pick the QX60 over the MDX Advance. Although the MDX is nice and the driving dynamics is more noticeable, the QX60 is more comfortable and more spacious inside. The interior materials look and feel better. The infotainment is also more intuitive and user friendly than the one on the MDX. There is also air vents in the 3rd row. QX60 is more quiet to drive. Plus it has the features that you would want like massaging seats and heads-up display thay you will only fine in the TypeS and advance models.

[@asatar2]

I agree, the best MDX deal I got was $200 a month more than the QX60. I needed up getting the QX60 Lux with Vision Package. Similarly equipped MDX is like $250 a month more!

[@frankescobar5802]

The interior on this car is more polished than the MDX. People that buy this kind of truck want comfort more than performance. Infiniti hit a home run with this one. I own 3 Infiniti’s 2018 Q50 red sport, 2020 QX50 and a 2013 QX56. I hope they plan to compete in the sedan space again and looking forward to a complete redesign of the QX80

[@AFCompany]

Acura is a more performance focused luxury brand so their interiors tend to be more sporty. The QX60s interior is beautiful and has more traditional straight lines inside but I still like the MDX interior especially the two toned consoles. I still think I’d buy the MDX, it has adaptive dampers and torque vectoring.

[@paulsantos6237]

We have MDX and QX60 but the QX60 is more comfortable and refined to drive. The 4th gen MDX drives the same as the 3rd Gen

Three things: 1) The QX60 third row feels bigger and more spacious than MDX. Can you confirm combined leg room numbers. 2) The MDX tops out at $62.5 which is lower than the top end MSRP here 3) The base model on the QX60 is missing ProPilot which seriously dents the standard feature argument

[@themmnur]

QX60 was popular for their 3rd row leg room - the only luxury mid size crossover that allowed an adult to fit in the 3rd row. Now it shrank to 28" (by about 3") in 2022; even MDX has more space in the 3rd row - very unfortunate.

I though the MDX has more options as standard equipment than the QX60. This doesn’t come standard with the digital gauge cluster while the MDX has that as well as more than an 8 way power seat adjustment. The QX60 may have other options standard but I wouldn’t say they have more compared to the MDX. Also, the MDX is cheaper than the QX60 loaded unless you’re referring to the upcoming MDX Type S. The most you can get it with destination is still over $3K cheaper than this loaded.

Alex - What 3 row SUV or Van would you recommend for maximum interior space, AWD, a fair amount of ground clearance, and reasonable gas mileage. I do NOT tow and I don't plan on any serious off road use. I don't need a low range 4x4. The KIA Telluride seems like a good fit or maybe I should go crazy and lift a 2018 Toyota Sienna a few inches.

[@ugoe5268]

It is tuned differently

[@3rdGUMObro]

@@ugoe5268 I want to believe that. But Acura retuned it for 2018 as well and it still was very weird at light throttle medium speeds. Very very good in sport mode in the mountains. Exasperating at 35-50 mph around town. I just don't trust it and would sooner have another MDX I think.

[@BigHeadClan]

@@3rdGUMObro No reason to cross it off the list until a test drive IMO, tuning can make the driving experience wildly different and the V6 from Nissan usually makes a bit more midrange the Honda's. Also I think Honda used the first generation ZF-9 this is the 2nd gen, Honda was also planning to replace the unit with the 10-speed if I'm not mistaken so who really knows how much effort was put in?

[@hoglaw09]

Excellent and very detailed review, as usual. Thanks again Alex! I'm a fan, and am cross shopping this between the Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit and Acura MDX Advance. When cross shopping between those two SUV's there are trade offs (massaging seats, 12 inch driver/media display, power rear seats, HUD, etc.), however with the Infiniti, there are no compromises needed. So Very excited about that. A few things I don't like about the Infiniti (again, when compared to the Jeep and Acura) is it's the only one of the three without an advanced suspension (compared to the double wishbone of the Acura and air springs in the Jeep). Also, there are a few design elements I can do without (the flat black wheel well trim, the boring and basic steering wheel taken straight from the Pathfinder, and the chrome trim on the front and rear of the SUV), but that's it. It's otherwise a great looking car with a ton of features.

[@bg693]

For a few thousand more the MDX type s is the best deal.

[@MIZUNOMP60]

Nice review Alex, being waiting for this one! It's a head turner and glad to hear the new nine speed transmission has been tuned nicely. At 64k fully loaded my only real issue is I would have expected this to have a little stronger acceleration, say 6.5 to 60 or so. On paper it's interior specs are actually very comparable to the 3-row Kia Sorrento but the Kia with it's 2.5 Turbo and 310ft torque I suspect will feel quicker and pull harder than the Infiniti. It's very nicely appointed and "sexy" looking but it's a lot to ask in the Autobiography trim price point for Nissan Pathfinder acceleration!

[@bfish9700]

I'd venture to guess shoppers in this class care more about fuel economy than acceleration (me among them). The sorento is also appreciably smaller than this, especially if you look at the trunk with the 3rd row folded (sorento is 189in long, this is 198.2). This is longer than both the palisade & telluride.

[@smack9x]

These are nothing but minivans in disguise. No one is taking these to the track and they all have similar 0-60 times. Are you really cross shopping a fully loaded QX60 with a Kia Sorrento? The Kia Sorrento is only a 3 row on paper. The 3rd row in not usable by human beings.

[@markmiller3279]

@@bfish9700 I suspect the Palisade and Tslluride are roomier, though. They are exceptionally well packaged. They all have a third row big enough for growing kids, unlike the Sorento, which would be OK for young kids in the back two rows, but no good for longer trips with so little cargo space unless the third row is folded. Sort of like the RX-L.

[@MIZUNOMP60]

@@bfish9700 I test drove the new Sorento with the 2.5 Turbo and it's acceleration is strong for it's class. It also returns 24mpg with the 2.5T and 310ft torque. Good performance numbers for acceleration (sub 7 seconds to 60) and fuel efficiency. On paper it actually is very comparable in usable size even though the QX 60 is 8" longer. For headroom it's a wash except the Kia has two more inches in the middle row. Leg room is also better in the Kia's second row by 4". The other rows are within an inch of each other. Hip room in the Infiniti third row is 3" better the other rows are about the same. All three rows down both are about 75 cubic feet of storage. Second and third row they are within two to three cubic feet storage of each other. So passenger space and cargo volume are in fact vert similar. The Kia has stronger acceleration, similar fuel economy, and space in a smaller package and a stronger warranty. Yes the Infiniti is a looker, has nicer materials and more prestige as a premium vehicle. But both loaded there is a 20k price difference, is the Infiniti a good value at 64K compared to the Kia at 44K? If you're marketing a vehicle as luxury, shoppers expect luxurious style, strong performance and quality first. Performance is important to many shoppers and expected when you hit over 60k vehicles and are compared to the very powerful and luxurious BMW X5 for example. I don't own a Sorento or plan to buy one, I just wonder is the premium Infiniti that much better than the mainstream Sorento in top trims at a 20 grand price difference!

[@MIZUNOMP60]

@@smack9x Nothing wrong with cross shopping! Both vehicles specs and performance are in fact very similar on paper. The Infiniti is more of a looker for sure but that's even subjective. Passenger space, cargo space, available features all very similar. I think the Infiniti has a nicer interior especially the leather dash. If I were looking at the QX60 in the Autobiography trim for 64K I would expect stronger performance than its Pathfinder cousin. This is getting close to BMW X5 money which has an awesome 335HP V6 Turbo. Many shoppers do in fact appreciate the strong engine performance even if it's used as a family vehicle or "Minivan". The BWM X7 has the same V6 or a V8 option, are people buying these because they're "minivans and don't care about performance? They buy them for the prestige, the luxury and the performance!

[@davids1816]

It's a pathfinder with contrast stiching, pleather dash, and a stereo upgrade. No more. No less. If that's worth an extra 10,000 then by all means jump in. But there are far far far better options for drivers and cheaper options if the pretty pleather isn't a game changer. I suspect those who buy will love them.

I really like this new QX60, especially with this Saddle Brown leather interior with the diamond or pond ripple quilting as Infiniti calls it. I just wish this Autograph trim was available with a bench in the second row instead of limiting you to just having Captain's chairs in the second row. When you don't need the third row up for a 5th passenger or can't have a seat up for cargo space, what are you supposed to do? That limits your seating & cargo configuration options. So then you're stuck to sticking with the Sensory trim which is 1 trim below this one & doesn't give you the diamond/ pond ripple quilting on the leather 🤦🏽‍♂️🙄. That means you either have to stick to the QX50 Sensory or Autograph trim, or stick to the Sensory trim of the QX60. If you need to regularly carry 5 people in the QX60 Autograph, that's not an option unless you keep one of the third row seats up which cuts down your cargo capacity by half

Would loved have bought this but out of my price range. Looks nicer then my 2021 cx9 Sig.

I have same car, I think we are doing fine. ☺️

“Fun” not a word I would use to describe any 3 row suv.

[@ELGlueckert]

So the Hellcat Durango isn't a fun 3 row SUV?

[@VNCTHE1]

@@ELGlueckert Nope, high center of gravity and a lot of weight...You're still driving a mini bus, not a sports car. That stupid thing gets 9mpg and has fiat-chrysler reliability, this is supposed to be a "family vehicle"...$90k+...you can keep that turd pile.

[@ELGlueckert]

@@VNCTHE1 doesn't mean it's not fun. 0-60 in less than 4 seconds is rather good for a 3 row SUV, who said fun had to be fuel efficient or handle well or be reliable?

When will you be releasing the full scores for this vehicle?

Can you please share a post as to when one should buy an electric, a hybrid and Fossil fuel vehicle?

[@OB1974]

This is an excellent overview and review of the QX60. We own the 2016 QX60 and had the original JX35. Both were excellent cars and trouble free. I just saw the new model locally and it is amazing. Your video clearly covers the elements I want to know about as my wife and I will be considering this new model. This is a game changer for Infiniti.

I love this much more than the new MDX, more luxury SUV

What is the difference between QX60-QX80

[@akeemlawrence9750]

INFINITI is finding its way home!!

[@CocoaBob]

So eventually the new QX60 catches up the previous MDX 😅 And the transmission ZF9, seriously, is it still problematic now? If not, why Honda abandoned it from all the key products. Is it still safe for us to purchase 2nd hand Honda products with ZF9?

[@damilolaakanni]

The problem with that ZF9, in Honda's case at least, was their software tuning. I don't know if other manufacturers had the same issue.

[@markmiller3279]

I don't think it is a reliability problem. It was just known for slow, sometimes rough, shifts that weren't great for a luxury vehicle. Infiniti (and, I suspect, ZF) have worked on that issue and it's not so bad now.

[@MrShanester77]

It appears Infinity has taken a significant amount of styling from a Buick Enclave, both from the American and Chinese markets.

[@mccylk4441]

CVT or 9 speed ZF, which one is worse; I coulnd't decide.

[@TunaTheLionBigBird]

Cvt

[@markmiller3279]

CVT, by far. This 9-speed may not be as smooth and quick as the legendary ZF 8-speed, but it's reliability should be fine, and better software has improved it.

Looks very much like Lincoln Aviator 2022
