Infiniti has joined the downsizing trend, swapping the QX60’s V6 for a turbocharged four-cylinder for the new model year. The 2025 QX60 adopts the same variable-compression 2.0-liter engine as its smaller siblings, the QX50 and QX55. Despite the smaller displacement, this turbo four punches out 268 hp and 286 lb-ft of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic. That’s a drop in horsepower compared to the outgoing V6’s 295 hp, but peak torque is higher. On the other hand, efficiency, at least on paper, has improved compared to the V6 model. FWD models are rated at 22 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined (versus the V6’s 21 mpg, 26 mpg, and 23 mpg, respectively), while AWD models are good for 22 mpg city, 27 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined (versus the V6’s 20 mpg, 25 mpg, and 22 mpg, respectively).
In times gone by, bathing a new car in
chrome accents from the factory was all the rage. Things have swung the other
way in more recent times and now, it’s all about making new cars look
aggressive and stealthy with black elements. The 2025 Infiniti QX60 is the
latest vehicle to be offered with such black touches, thanks to the launch of
the new Black Edition Package. Additionally, other updates have been made to
the rest of the range. This special version of the QX60 comes standard with a
set of distinctive black 20-inch wheels and rocks a set of gloss black roof
rails. The black elements extend across the grille surround and badges, while
the badge at the front is now illuminated, adding an extra sense of luxury to
the SUV.
Regardless of whether buyers opt for the
Black Edition Package, all 2025 QX60 models will come with a new key fob
featuring approach unlock and walkaway locking functions. Additionally, QX60
Luxe variants will come standard with a 17-speaker sound system. Plenty more
technology is packed into the QX60. For example, all models come standard with
a 12.3-inch infotainment screen featuring Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and
SiriusXM radio. Infiniti has also equipped the SUV with an Around View Monitor
with Moving Object Detection, a Smart Rear View Mirror, Traffic Sign
Recognition, and ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link support for single-lane highway
driving.
Other key safety systems include Forward
Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Predictive Forward Collision
Warning, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking, Lane Departure
Warning, and High Beam Assist. Prices for the new model start at US$ 50,200 for
the entry-level Pure (a US$ 550 increase of the base 2024MY V6 model) and increase
to US$ 56,800 for the Luxe, or an extra US$ 1,900 with the Black Edition Package.
Sitting above the Luxe is the QX60 Sensory, priced from US$ 59,100, while sitting
at the top of the range is the US$ 66,150 QX60 Autograph.
