MSRP, where quoted, excludes destination fees and other costs. 2026 Infiniti QX60 The Three-row SUV For Every Occasion 2026 Infiniti QX60 SportFirst introduced in 2012, the QX60 was known as the Infiniti JX in the early days. This three-row SUV has always been the most versatile SUV offered by Infiniti. Entering its second generation in 2022, the QX60 is impressive to look at both inside and out. The cabin is spacious, while offering plenty of luxury features. The extra third row provides the flexibility to carry more passengers at any given moment, should you require it. The QX60 receives a minor refresh to its exterior in 2026; the illuminated Infiniti logo in the middle and the reworked front bumper now gives the SUV more presence on the road. Underneath the hood of the QX60 is a 2.0L VC-Turbo four-cylinder engine that can be found across the entire lineup. While the QX60 has always shared some parts with the more commonplace Nissan Pathfinder, it has always impressed the mass public with its handsome looks and versatility. This is evidenced by the fact that the QX60 comprised more than half of Infiniti's sales in 2024, making it the most popular Infiniti model within the family. Luxury, Refinement, And Then Some 2026 Infiniti QX60 Autograph trim (3)There are four trim levels available for the 2026 QX60, with most of them offering the type of luxury features that would only come with top-tier trims for more mainstream cars. The entry Pure and Luxe are the only two trim levels that come standard with front-wheel drive, while the Sport and Autograph get all-wheel drive as standard. The Sport and Autograph also get a second row captain's chair as standard, providing the best comfort for passengers sitting behind the first row. However, if you are looking for the ultimate luxury experience in your QX60, the Autograph is definitely the trim to go for. To start with, the front seats get heating and have a massage function in this trim. The sound system is also upgraded to a 20-speaker Klipsch Reference Premiere system, providing the best sound quality while moving. A Safety Fortress For You And Your Family IIHS/YouTube Safety is one nobody should compromise on when it comes to road travel. Luckily, the QX60 is equipped with plenty of safety features to keep you and your family safe on the road. It comes standard with forward collision warning and emergency braking. The adaptive cruise control is also standard on the Luxe trim and above. Apart from the safety features, what's more impressive about the QX60 is its safety rating. The 2026 model QX60 is included in the Top Safety Pick category by IIHS in 2026, ranking Good in all categories in the crashworthiness section. 2027 Infiniti QX65 The New Stylish Kid In The Family 2027 Infiniti QX65 (3)If the QX60 is for those looking for versatility and a balance between luxury and family use, the new QX65 is definitely for those who value appearance above everything. To be fair, though, it is basically just a QX60 with a sleeker design and dropped roofline that provides a sporty feel the moment it comes into your sight. Nevertheless, the new crossover within the Infiniti family does offer a totally different vibe compared to its SUV siblings. The QX65 is also meant to fill in the gap left by the outgoing QX55 and also remind us of the original FX model that marked the beginning of Infiniti's step into the luxury crossover segment. However, those who are eager to get their hands on the new kid in the house might have to wait a bit, as Infiniti announced the 2027 QX65 will only hit the dealers in spring of 2026. A Looker Both Inside And Out 2027 Infiniti QX65 Interior 7While the QX65 isn't available just yet, it's worth discussing the key features and trims that will be present if you're interested in this sleek crossover. Unlike its sibling, the QX65 has only three trims for you to choose from, with Luxe, Sport and top-spec Autograph making up the model lineup for 2027MY. The crossover is surprisingly well-equipped across every trim level, with all-wheel drive being standard matter the model you pick. The infotainment system with Google built-in and ProPILOT, which consists of adaptive cruise control and various safety functions, is also standard on the QX65. The Klipsch stereo system can be found in the Sport and Autograph trims, with the Autograph receiving a total of 20 speaker, including some in the headrests. Tricks Underneath The Hood InfinitiWhile there is no V6 or V8 reminiscent of the FX series from the early days, the new turbo four-cylinder under the hood isn't just any ordinary block. The VC-Turbo is the world's first production variable compression ratio engine that achieves high efficiency and horsepower output at the same time. A VC-Turbo engine utilizes a multi-link system in place of a traditional connection rod to rotate the crankshaft, which makes it possible to vary the compression ratio on demand. With power and efficiency on its side, the VC-Turbo can produce similar horsepower and more torque when compared to a V6 engine with a larger displacement. While the 268 horsepower isn't going to allow the QX65 to win a drag race, it does provide a more efficient way of powering this crossover compared to the past. And if that wasn't enough for you, the Red Sport variant is on its way, should you request more performance. 2026 Infiniti QX80 Ultimate Luxury, Ultimate Space 2026-INFINITI-QX80A flagship model with ultimate presence and refinement, the QX80 is possibly the best SUV offered by Infiniti on the market currently. Having received a completely new design last year, the QX80 now has the handsome look to complement its luxury vibe, ensuring it can go head-to-head with some of the biggest names in the full-size SUV segment. Being the halo of the brand, the QX80 is obviously filled with various features and tech to keep you and your passengers comfortable throughout the journey. However, the biggest selling point of the QX80 lies within its interior space, with a third row that's spacious enough even for adults. The powertrain stays the same throughout the entire lineup, being a 3.5 L twin-turbo V6 that's adequate for a vehicle this size. Premium Space, Premium Spec 2026 INFINITI QX80 SPORT-14The lineup of the QX80 stays similar to the QX60 mentioned above, consisting of four trim levels. The base Pure and Luxe trims come standard with rear-wheel drive, while all-wheel drive can be added as an option. Plenty of premium features come standard on the QX80, including heated first- and second-row seating, tri-zone climate control, and ProPILOT assist that provides adaptive cruise control and a handful of safety tech. The newly introduced Sport trim provides good value for its price, receiving a 24-speaker Klipsch sound system and massage front seats like the ones you get from the top-spec Autograph. While the Sport and Autograph trims at the top end will cost you over six digits to purchase, the QX80 is still fairly competitive compared with its American and European opponents, offering a better cost-performance ratio in the segment."Infiniti needed a stellar product to turn its fortunes around, and although it's not perfect, the QX80 feels like that car. It's stylish, comfortable, spacious, and full of luxury features."- Jared Rosenholtz, Editor-At-Large, CarBuzz Space For Everyone 2026 Infiniti QX80 rear seatsAs mentioned earlier, the interior space is one of the primary strengths of the QX80, but just how capable is the interior space of the QX80? We are here to answer that question. To start with, there are two types of seating configuration: the Pure and Luxe trim get the eight-seat configuration, while the second-row captain's chairs in the Sport and Autograph trim lower that figure to seven. The rear legroom is the same across all trim levels, with the second row ofering 39.2 inches and the third-row legroom coming in at 32.9 inches. Despite not being the best in its class, the QX80 still manages to beat its Japanese riva, the Lexus LX, in both second- and third-row legroom. The Next Chapter For Infiniti Nissan Skyline V38 Teaser (2)-1As the world is moving into electrification for the next generation, you may expect the next step for Infiniti will be a handful of hybrid and electric models. While the company has teased us multiple times about an electric concept vehicle, there are no concrete plans in the short-term that would see an electric Infiniti coming to the US. However, we might have a good chance of seeing a new Infiniti sedan in the near future. As Nissan announced the introduction of a new Skyline model recently, it has also confirmed that the model will be coming to the US wearing an Infiniti badge. A new sedan will fill in the gap that has been empty since the departure of Q50 in 2024. The segment of luxury sport sedans has arguably also been the best part of Infiniti's heritage, and now with the return of Skyline to the US as an Infiniti, we might just be witnessing another new chapter in the story of the best Infiniti cars.Source: Infiniti, Nissan, Lexus
