Pros: Genuinely upscale trimmings and features; simple, easy-to-use controls; availability of Hybrid model; surprisingly good handling; impressive passenger and cargo versatility
Cons: Middling acceleration; some desirable options are available only in expensive option packages; plus-size wheels take a toll on ride quality
CG Says: The 2016 Infiniti QX60 gets revised interior and exterior styling. Steering and suspension have also been modified. A new safety feature is autonomous emergency braking that avoids or mitigates both forward and rear collisions. Urbane cabin appointments with simple (for the class anyway) controls, a serene driving experience, and availability of a Hybrid version are QX60 highlights. Less impressive is the QX’s handling and ride quality when equipped with the optional 20-inch wheels. Base prices are competitive, and though Infiniti requires the purchase of costly option packages in order to get some desired features, considering all the content, it’s not unreasonable.
