INFINITI JX: Trims, Generations & Buyer's Guide
Last updated August 4, 2026
The INFINITI JX is a premium three-row SUV built for family duty, with seating for seven and an emphasis on comfort, easy third-row access, and safety-minded technology. It debuted for 2013 and was later renamed the QX60.
Introduced for 2013, the JX put family usefulness ahead of a sporty image and later continued under the QX60 name. Its defining idea was to make three-row luxury easy to use every day. A quiet cabin, upscale materials, and thoughtful access to the third row were central to its appeal.
Strengths
- Its seven-passenger layout gives families a genuinely useful third row.
- The sliding second row was designed to preserve third-row access even with a child seat installed.
- The cabin emphasizes quietness, upscale materials, and day-to-day comfort.
- A generous list of standard comfort and convenience features keeps the lone trim from feeling stripped down.
- Safety-minded driver-assistance technology provides useful support on vehicles that have it.
Who it's for
The JX best fits families who need three usable rows but want a quieter, more upscale experience than a basic family SUV provides. It is especially practical for parents who regularly carry children, relatives, or friends and want easier access to the back row.
INFINITI JX lineup
The JX35 is the JX’s only trim, so there is no base-to-luxury ladder to sort through. It represents the complete JX formula: a well-equipped seven-seat family SUV powered by a gas V6. Used shoppers should compare condition, service history, and the driver-assistance equipment present on each vehicle rather than look for a higher trim badge.
