For the price and reliability rating, I pick the Infinity.

[@IFPanama]

I agree, and also it is a beautiful car 😍

[@hashim_iraq]

@@IFPanama how is that a beautiful car?? it's the ugliest suv ever made.

[@MrR2185]

That FX was vastly outgunned in this race. It was the only naturally aspirated vehicle there. I think Nissan should give the FX some of that GTR magic, like how the Cayenne has a base V6 and V8, all the way to the V8 bi-turbo GTS version. Oh, what a monster that Infiniti would become...

[@hunghuge7717]

Wouldn't need to do a lot to it. GTR engine and box swap then tyres and suspension adjustments to suit. Only downside is you have to wait a while for boost in a GTR. I don't know how well that would translate into a big SUV.

[@hexagonosaurus5848]

After watching this video, I bought a X6M over the weekend. I was initially going with the RR but it just can't compete. The X6M is a completely different beast when comparing to other SUVs here. There is so much technology that makes it a driver's car. Loving it.

Yes there were some stuff that went wrong: 1. aux turbo coolant pump: bought from fcp euro for $140 and took me about 4hrs to install 2. Waterpump: will cost about $1000 to get it installed as I can't do it myself I've put an exhaust on it and have a Dinan tune so now it's making over 600hp. I paid less than $20k CAD for this. I am very happy with it, hope you guys all look into one. They are truly bargains.

[@Johncarson9113]

Wait until the Infiniti FX IPL engine comes out, then it will place second with out doubt. The BMW X6 I think will always take the lead in this segment in terms of the legendary M performance but the Infiniti is all stock, it is simply a larger engine offering while the other competitors are actual High performance engines. Just the fact that an FX50 could keep up with the others is very impressive to me. The IPL engine will definitely make the FX a Major threat!!

[@Eidrian111]

I still think it's funny they stuck the FX50 in there. It's the cheapest by far and has 100hp/tq less than the slowest of the other 3, obviously on a 'race' of this length it would not do well against the other contenders. this is sort of a biased race if you ask me. Plus, they have the porker drive it!

That was my thought exactly, The FX takes 5.2 to 60, compared to the range rovers 6 seconds. The ending numbers dont even make sense .75 seconds = a whole 8mph ? wtf! not to mention the FX50 is faster all around, it seems Europeans just dont want to accept nissan/infiniti yet, even though they are nicer and more reliable than pretty much all german cars.

The cost is significantly more. They usually try and base these around a certain price range. The Cayenne turbo S is easily the fastest though. The same goes for the Panamera and the m5 comparisons. They always do the gts instead of the turbo which would blow their doors off. They are just much much more expensive.

[@Johncarson9113]

@MrMBMW93 Try to remember this is a Eurpean comparison not a US comparison. The Infiniti FX just came out 2 years ago in the UK so it only made sense at the time to introduce and put it up against its German rivals. The FX50 however I agree appropriately competes with the V8 rivals like the X5, Cayenne and Range Rover. Good thing is Mercedes and Infiniti are now partners, the soon to come IPL FX, G, M, will recieve Mercedes AMG engines and Mercedes will get Infiniti's hybrid technology.
