“The 2016 Infiniti QX60 has room for seven passengers with very little cargo or five passengers with a decent amount of cargo space. It has decent power. It lacks Apple Car Play, but that's not a dealbreaker because it's hard to find a 7-passenger luxury vehicle in this price range.”
INFINITI QX60: Trims, Generations & Buyer's Guide
Last updated August 4, 2026
The INFINITI QX60 is a three-row luxury crossover SUV with seating for six or seven. It is known for a comfort-first cabin, family-friendly flexibility, everyday technology, and useful towing ability.
The QX60 began as the JX35 and adopted its current name for 2014, but its purpose has stayed consistent: it is INFINITI’s family-focused three-row SUV. Across both generations, it has emphasized a quiet ride, welcoming cabin, and practical passenger space over a sporty driving character. The 2022 redesign modernized the formula, while later engine, styling, and technology updates kept the same comfort-first identity.
Strengths
- The quiet, comfort-focused cabin is well suited to long family drives and everyday commuting.
- Three-row seating gives families room for six or seven people in 2027 models.
- It provides more passenger and cargo flexibility than a two-row luxury SUV while remaining easier to place in traffic and parking spaces than the larger QX80.
- The 2027 QX60 can tow up to 6,000 pounds, giving it useful capacity for family trips and recreational gear.
- Family-minded safety and convenience features have been a recurring focus, including standard Rear Door Alert from 2018 and broader standard collision-avoidance technology from 2019.
Who it's for
The QX60 suits families who want three rows and an upscale cabin without moving up to the larger QX80. It makes sense for school runs, road trips, and daily errands, especially when passenger flexibility and occasional towing matter more than sporty performance.
INFINITI QX60 lineup
PURE and LUXE have anchored the trim ladder since 2019: PURE is the straightforward entry point, while LUXE is the middle-ground step up. AUTOGRAPH joined the upper end with the 2022 redesign for shoppers seeking the more upscale version. SENSORY filled another upper-level role from 2022 through 2025, and SPORT replaced it with the 2026 refresh. On 2027 models, SPORT does not bring a higher-output engine; PURE, LUXE, SPORT, and AUTOGRAPH all use the same 268-hp gas engine and AWD, so the decision comes down to trim position and equipment rather than a different powertrain.
INFINITI QX60 generations
From 2014 to 2027, the QX60 spans two generations. The current 2nd Generation arrived for 2022, following the 1st Generation — L50 (2013–2020).
2nd Generation (2022–Present)
A full redesign brought new styling, a more modern cabin, a 9-speed automatic in place of the old continuously variable transmission, and a larger touchscreen. The V6 gave way to a turbo four-cylinder for 2025, followed by refreshed styling and dashboard technology for 2026.

“The vehicle itself is very comfortable and highly functional. But fuel efficiency is not as good as other competitors.”
“Exterior look, color choices, smooth ride, roomy make it a number 1 choice for me.”
“I love the look and sporty style of the infiniti qx60. It's a suv but it has a sleek look unlike most boxy and bulky SUVs. It has better leg room, storage and cargo space than my jeep commander that is huge! My infiniti also has a plethora of included options like remote start, 360 cameras, heated seats and snow, sport and eco modes.”
“Great vehicle. Would recommend. Very roomy interior, comfy seats, maneuvers great, up to date technology. Decent gas mileage.”
