People\'s Opinion
N/A / 5
Infiniti QX60:
The Infiniti QX60, called the Infiniti JX until the 2014 model year, is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by Infiniti, the luxury vehicle division of Japanese automaker Nissan. It is underpinned by an elongated Nissan Murano platform also used by the Nissan Pathfinder.

I (L50) Overview:
Infiniti QX60 (I (L50)). With 336 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. At around 2024 kg, it’s on the heavier side. All‑wheel drive provides excellent grip, ideal for off‑road use. A sport utility vehicle offering higher ground clearance and versatile cargo space. With seating for 7, it’s perfect for larger families.
Performance Verdict
Similar to the FWD variant, the 3.5L V6 offers smooth and adequate power. The addition of Intelligent All-Wheel Drive enhances traction and stability, particularly in adverse weather conditions, without significantly impacting straight-line performance.
Fuel Economy
Fuel economy is marginally lower than the FWD model due to the added weight and drivetrain losses of the AWD system, but remains competitive for a luxury AWD V6 SUV. Expect slightly higher consumption figures.
