The 2024 QX60 is available at Charlie Clark Infiniti of El Paso, a trusted member of the Charlie Clark automotive family. Visit our dealership to test drive the 2024 QX60 and experience true luxury crafted by Infiniti with the 2024 QX60.

The 2024 Infiniti QX60 Styling

For 2024, Infiniti had a bold vision for the new model year of QX60s. For 2024, the QX60 will make an impression as its efforts glide across city streets and cruises down highways. For styling, Infiniti drew inspiration from origami paper folding with an elegant mesh grill displayed prominently alongside headlights designed to resemble the keys of a modern digital piano. Despite its elegant front styling, drivers looking for a more aggressive style can opt for 20-inch available wheels that give the QX60 a confident stance. Once you open the doors to the QX60, drivers, and passengers are greeted with leather seats that sit high with Infiniti's zero gravity-inspired front seats. The cabin uses fine open-pore wood and is delicately light with ambient light, making driving at night a truly beautiful experience, like dining in a five-star candlelit restaurant. Both the interior and exterior can be customized to any preference for color, material, and cabin features.

Performance for the 2024 Infiniti QX60

The 2024 model year for the QX60 brings more performance, technology, and driver-focused features to the table than ever before. A 3.5-liter V6 engine produces 290 horsepower and 270 foot-pounds of torque, delivered to all four wheels with available all-wheel drive. For drivers who opt for the all-wheel drive version of the QX60, a towing capacity of up to 6000 pounds makes towing boats or trailers a breeze. Despite its power and performance numbers, the QX60 is efficient, giving drivers up to 26 mpg on the highway. Depending on what style of driving drivers will be doing with the QX60, there are five selectable driving modes for the QX60, including:

• Comfort
• Sport
• Snow
• Eco
• Standard

Maintenance is also a breeze with Infiniti Premium Care, which gives owners free oil changes, tire rotations, and state inspections for 30,000 miles or three years.

Driver-Focused Features for the 2024 Model Year

Infiniti has led the industry with its driver-focused features and intelligent driver assistance. The QX60 comes loaded with:

• Intelligent all-wheel drive
• Forward emergency braking
• Pedestrian detection
• Blind spot warning
• Lane Departure warning

Also available is Infiniti's Intelligent Around View Monitoring with moving object detection, which gives you a 360-degree view of your QX60. An intelligent rear-view mirror, road sign recognition, and driver alert make driving the QX60 a much easier and less taxing experience for an SUV with room for seven passengers. Infiniti's available ProPILOT assist supports drivers on long road trips driving down Texas highways. These features and a five-star crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration make the QX60 an easy and safe SUV that feels more like driving a mid-size SUV with full-size features.

• Cost: New or used, both vehicles are within the same market bracket and range about $1000 in difference.

Lexus IS vs. INFINITI Q50 Handling

Due to its larger size and heavier displacement, the INFINITI Q50 has a slightly wider turning radius. In contrast, the more nimble Lexus IS can corner with ease and can fit through tight spots without concern.

Winner: Lexus IS

Lexus IS vs. INFINITI Q50 Extra Features

While both cars share a vast array of standard and optional features, the INFINITI Q50 takes the lead by offering several standard features that the Lexus has optional or not at all. While it varies depending on model year, the newest featured INFINITI Q50 comes armed with these additions:

• 360, Surround View Camera
• Parking Assistance
• Expanded Driver Assistance Features
• 8-Way Power Driver's Seat
• Driver Lumbar Support
• Front Heated Seats
• Second Row Stowable Armrest
• Interior Metal Trim
• Heated Steering Wheel
• Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror

With all things considered, the Lexus IS is a slightly cheaper vehicle, but without the features coming standard, it still struggles to justify its luxury trappings. The INFINITI Q50, on the other hand, delivers on all fronts, and its drawbacks are far outweighed by its impressive standard features.

What do you look for in a luxury sedan while searching in what is an ever-expanding segment of the car market? If you want quality, performance, and comfort, you have discovered two nearly equal rivals in the Acura TLX and INFINITI Q50. Upon first glance, these two behemoths of the luxury sedan segment may seem to bring the same features to the table, but there is a slight deviation from one another in nearly all the gritty details. So, today we here at Charlie Clark will break them down and show you why the INFINITI Q50 slightly edges out the Acura TLX regarding quality and performance.

Specification Comparison of the Acura TLX vs INFINITI Q50

The INFINITI Q50 is a veteran of the luxury sedan industry compared to the relative newcomer in the Acura TLX. The INFINITI Q50 has more experience and shows when breaking down the engine performance and specifications. The newer INFINITI Q50 sports a 3.0L Twin-Turbo V6, while the Acura is still stuck with its original design and reaches a hard cap with its 2.0L Turbo I4 that fails to have the same pickup and go as the Q50. Furthermore, no matter the model year, the INFINITI Q50 has greater horsepower and a comparable or better engine. When you drive an INFINITI Q50, you can feel the power that is lacking in the TLX. The one saving grace of the TLX is its slightly smaller turning radius, which is countered by its larger size and heavier frame. Finally, what about range? The INFINITI Q50 has slightly lower MPG due to its more potent engine, although it compensates for this by having a much larger gas tank and can go farther than the TLX without having to fill up.

Winner: INFINITI Q50

Interior Comparison of the Acura TLX vs INFINITI Q50

When comparing interiors, some things are an obvious win or loss over one another, although the style will ultimately come down to personal preference. Style-wise, the LTX has the edge thanks to its newer models and sleek elegance. The Q50 has a more classic style as it hasn't seen radical restyling since 2014. However, the interior is more than just aesthetics. The INFINITI Q50 is slightly less wide but longer than the LTX. It offers more headroom and legroom while bringing comparable interior features like USB ports, Apple Car Play, Wireless Charging, and a robust infotainment system.

Winner: Tie, Coming Down To Aesthetics

Acura TLX vs. INFINITI Q50 Conclusion

While both vehicles race neck and neck for the lead position in the luxury car market, the INFINITI Q50 comes ahead by a nose, literally and figuratively. The Acura TLX and Q50 are both comfortable, high-performance, and reliable vehicles with a similar price tag for new and used models. Yet, the LTX fails to deliver the power, and its basic design lacks many features that the INFINITI includes standard. But are you still not convinced? The final nail in the coffin for the LTX is its warranty which encapsulates the slight edge that the Q50 has over every Acura vehicle. While it may seem negligible, the LTX offers a Basic four yr./ 50,000 mi warranty and a six yr/ 70,000 mi powertrain warranty. The Q50 has an identical 6 yr/ 70,000 mi powertrain warranty but once again offers the better value per dollar and more miles driven thanks to its four yr./ 60,000 mi basic warranty.

What have you been searching for in a new or used SUV? If you have been searching for rugged performance and competitive quality, then you may want to consider a Toyota Sequoia or INFINITI QX80. The Toyota Sequoia and INFINITI QX80 are the two most popular SUVs on the market, thanks to their value, luxury, space, and overall versatility. Here we are going to put them head to head, comparing comfort, interior styling, performance, and reliability to see which of these titans of the SUV industry stands above the other.

Toyota Sequoia vs. INFINITI QX80 Performance

What matters more to you in an SUV, horsepower or towing? Because both of these vehicles have those in spades. However, no matter the model year, the INFINITI QX80 has a far superior towing capacity and horsepower when compared to the Toyota Sequoia. Current model year INFINITI QX80 can tow up to 8500 lbs while the Sequoia caps out at more than 1000 pounds less. Further, the INFINITI QX80 has a higher horsepower, albeit with less lead over the Sequoia than with its impressive towing capacity.

Toyota Sequoia vs. INFINITI QX80 Comfort

The Toyota Sequoia and INFINITI QX80 have similar dimensions, although the INFINITI QX80 is slightly larger and provides greater leg room for taller individuals seated in the front and back seats. Furthermore, it is somewhat longer than the Sequoia, which can affect it's turning radius, but also allows for more cargo space and interior comfort. The winner here will ultimately depend upon if you prefer more robust or compact SUVs.

Toyota Sequoia vs. INFINITI QX80 Reliability

Simply put, the INFINITI QX80 has a more complex engine and a more robust suite of technological features, all of which increase the number of failure points in the vehicle. The simple design of the Toyota Sequoia helps it in this regard, as it has a slightly higher reliability score. Although both are still incredibly reliable vehicles and you are unlikely to have any significant issues with an INFINITI QX80.

Toyota Sequoia vs. INFINITI QX80 Interior Features

The Toyota Sequoia and INFINITI QX80 have several features shared across the pair. However, while the Sequoia has an extensive suite of available options, the INFINITI QX80 is standard, making it far better for off-the-shelf performance without nickel and diming you for every optional feature. Some of the best features which come standard in the INFINITI QX80 include the following:

• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Android Auto
• Apple Car Play
• Keyless Entry
• Keyless Ignition

All of the above are standard on the newest Toyota Sequoia models. But the INFINITI QX80 takes all that and adds these features as standard:

• Leather Upholstery
• Built In Navigation System
• Sunroof/Moonroof
• Wireless Smartphone Charging (Unavailable Even As An Option On All Toyota Sequoia Models)
• Heated Seats

Toyota Sequoia vs. INFINITI QX80 Verdict

Overall the INFINITI QX80 is the superior SUV for the discerning buyer. Its better performance, suite of standard features, and large size make for the perfect counter to the Toyota Sequoia, which comes ahead in only a slight lead in price and simplicity. For versatility and comfort, you can't go wrong with a new or used INFINITI QX80.

Have you been looking for a luxury coupe that doesn't break the bank? The Infiniti Q60 and Lexus RC are a red herring, looking and performing at the same level as their contemporaries but without the accompanying price tag. However, which brings better value for money? Let's pit these two against one another to determine what you can expect from Infiniti Q60 or Lexus RC ownership.

Infiniti Q60 Breakdown

With a run of 2017–2022, the Q60 replaced the Infiniti G model series; the Q60 was Infiniti's premier coupe, and its discontinuation leaves only the Q50 to fill its shoes. Yet, with strong sales and high reviews, what did the Q60 get right? First, the Q60 was a great deal better looking than all of the competition during the model years it was produced. With a sleek form, eye-catching curves, and a distinctive silhouette, the Q60 saw little in the way of changes during its 5-year run as it got it right with the first model. Inside, the Q60 features Infiniti's modernized interior that tries its best to maintain a classic feel. Newer models have the distinctive Infitinti hallmark of two infotainment screens, leather seating treatment, autonomous emergency braking systems, and the standard fare of Apple Car Play and Android Auto that you would have come to expect from modern luxury vehicles. Performance in the Q60 is nothing to scoff at, as it delivers on all fronts without compromising. While the Q60 feels a bit weight with its large turning radius, it could be more responsive to a light feather touch when fully engaged, and the Q60 really shines. Every model of the Q60 has a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine standard, with premium models boasting a twin V6 that delivers incredible acceleration and speed. However, this high performance comes at a cost, slightly lowering the efficiency of the Q60, meaning will need to fill up more than the Lexus RC. The Q60 is a luxury vehicle with traditional car pricing with minimal variation seen across the standard models, as it has numerous premium trims to provide a breadth of choices when deciding which is right for you.

Lexus RC Breakdown

The Lexus RC is a bit older than the Q60, as it started production in 2015 and has new models announced going into the future. Like its competition, the RC is a high-class coupe with all the bells and whistles that do not fail to turn heads as it drives down the road with its distinctive, albeit derivative, style. The Lexus RC performs well on the road as its standard models have improved performance and mileage over the Infiniti Q60. However, even with the highest-end trim, the Lexus RC cannot compete with the various iterations of the Q60. Newer models have a 2.0L Turbo in-Line 4 Cylinder, with a 3.5L V6 on AWD and premium models, making it perfectly competent and a joy to drive. The interior is serviceable but is starting to feel dated and in need of an upgrade into the modern era, and there is little good to say about the RC that the Q60 doesn't do the same or better.

INFINITI Q60 vs. Lexus RC – What’s The Verdict?

While both vehicles perform similarly at a base level and have many of the same interior features, the deciding factors are versatility and price. There is where the Q60 takes the victory. With several trim and engine options, along with a standard model that retails for around $2000 less than the same model year of the RC, the Q60 can't be beaten.

When researching luxury SUVs, the two most common automakers you will come across are INFINITI and Lexus. Both brands have brought landmark vehicles with unsurpassable performance, comfort, and design. The most recent full-sized SUVs from each company are the INFINITI QX80 and Lexus GX460, which both aim to target a similar niche in the high-end market. But which is more worth your time and money? Join us as we dive into each to determine which SUV best suits your lifestyle.

INFINITI QX80 vs. Lexus GX460: Engine Power And Performance

The first and most glaring difference between the QX80 and the GX460 is the engine and what kind of performance you can expect from either vehicle. The QX80 has a larger standard engine, with most models being a V8 that can deliver up to 400 horsepower with newer vehicles. Contrary, the GX460 is a bit weaker. Still sporting a V8, even the newest GX460 struggles to reach over 300 horsepower, limiting its towing capacity and lowering its overall performance. While you may believe that the QX80 would have considerably lower mileage due to its more robust performance, that is far from the truth. Both vehicles have nearly identical gas mileage on most models, generally ranging between 15-19 MPG.

Size And Interior Comfort

While the outside aesthetic of a vehicle is beautiful in the eye of the beholder, you will likely be spending most of your time inside your SUV. Regarding interior legroom, cargo space, and technological features, the INFINITI QX80 blows the Lexus GX460 out of the water. The QX80 is longer, taller, and broader than the competition, with newer models offering the following interior specifications:

• Exterior Length: 2 inches
• Exterior Body Width: 9 inches
• Exterior Body Height: 8 inches
• Cargo Volume: 95.1 cubic feet
• Front Legroom: 6 inches
• Rear Legroom: 41 inches
• Third-Row Legroom: 8 inches

The only space where the Lexus GX460 wins out is with legroom in the third row, where it sacrifices the comfort of those in the front to compensate for its smaller size. Technology features are standard on both vehicles and include things such as Apple Car Play, highly rated driver assistance features, and bright infotainment screens that put everything within the space of your fingertips. The most significant difference between the interiors is that the Lexus 460 opts for a smaller, more contemporary style. In contrast, the INFINITI QX 80 has a classic charm fused with its wide displays and eye-catching curves.

Suppose you have been searching for a full-sized SUV with a robust set of features, adventurous spirit, and luxury style. In that case, you may have discovered that the Nissan Armada and INFINITI QX80 are mechanically similar in more ways than they differ. However, that level of similarity can make it hard to choose which one you should consider for your next purchase. Here we will break down both of these titans of the SUV market, get into the history and specs of each, and give you a definitive answer on the better option.

INFINITI QX80 vs. Nissan Armada, What Are The Similarities?

Both vehicles share the full-sized SUV designation and have a long history of reliability and safety. Some of the other similarities between the INFINITI QX80 and the Nissan Armada include the following:

• Identical Towing Capacity: Most model years, whether you buy preowned or new, can tow the same amount with a maximum of up to 8,500 lbs.
• Engine Power: New models of INFINITI WQX80 and Nissan Armada have 5.6-liter 32-valve V-8 Engine5.6-liter 32-valve V-8 400 horsepower @ 5,800 RPM
• Gas Mileage: Due to each model year having a similar size, weight, and engine, both vehicles have mileage that deviates by about one mpg with a maximum of 14/20 (city/highway) on the INFINITI QX80.

Nissan Armada Breakdown, Pros And Cons

The Nissan Armada started production in 2003, with an updated second-generation model entering the market ins 2017. Both generations are full-sized SUVs, with the newer models sporting a slightly larger, more luxurious interior. The Armada is an offroad capable and very competent for its size, offered in rear-wheel or four-wheel drive variants, although the rear-wheel option will struggle when leaving the beaten path.

Pros:

• A comfortable interior that seats eight and provides a quiet, pseudo-luxury ride with plenty of room for everyone or all your cargo.
• Great infotainment options on all models, with premium trims able to compete with more expensive vehicles that focus on extravagance.

Cons:

• Power at a price is the central theme of large SUVs, and the low MPG can drain your wallet after driving.
• Very average safety features that provide the standard fare of driver assistance features.
• Lower quality than average warranty.

INFINITI QX80 Breakdown, Pros And Cons

The INFINITY QX80 is a luxury-focused SUV that started in 2013 and is the replacement for the older Infiniti QX56, which initially shared a base with the Nissan Armada. When you drive a QX80, you may notice it has a massive interior, an excellent and straightforward infotainment system, and top-of-the-line towing capacity.

Pros:

• Luxury Interior: Standard models include genuine leather upholstery and available wood trim, and a beautifully designed, albeit dated, interior.
• Above-Average Safety Features:
  • Surround-view parking camera system
  • Front and rear parking sensors
  • Rearview mirror with an integrated camera display
  • Blind-spot monitoring
  • Rear cross-traffic alert
  • Lane-departure warning
  • Lane-keep assist
  • Forward collision warning
  • Forward automatic emergency braking
  • Pedestrian detection
  • Adaptive cruise control
  • Automatic high-beam headlights
• Great warranty that beats out the competition, keeping your vehicle on the road longer without costing you extra.

Cons:

• Gas-guzzling V8 is relatively inefficient for the modern era.
• In need of an aesthetic redesign, as the luxury interior, while nice, seems like it was made ten years ago.

If you have been searching the sea of luxury SUVs, you may have found several comparisons between the Infiniti QX60 and the Audi Q7. Powerful, with fair pricing, and several new model trim options, there are many similarities between these two vehicles. However, which is better for you? How will the new generation of SUVs compare in a luxury market? Here we examine two of the most popular and put them head-to-head.

INFINITI QX60 Breakdown

The New Infiniti QX60 comes armed with a 295 hp 3.5L V6 Engine that delivers on and off-road capabilities. Some of the highlights of the QX 60 include the following:

• Larger Size And Cargo Space: The QX60 has always leaned more toward the larger size and provides excellent headroom, making it more popular for families or taller people. Seating seven and technology all the way into the back brings a comfortable ride, while the back rows can be flipped down to provide more cargo space than the competition.
• Performance: The incredible horsepower makes the QX60 feel better to drive, and the tight turning radius gives an astonishing level of handling, while other SUVs feel more like a boat than a car.
• Safety: The 2023 QX60 has an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top-Safety Pick + designation. This designation means it meets all top safety qualifications for technology, passenger safety, and low-light pedestrian protection.

Audi Q7 Breakdown

The Audi Q7 sports a quick 2.0L I4 Turbo engine that provides 261 hp. While the Audi brand brings many of the expected luxury options, the Q7 shines in the following:

• Visually Striking: One thing Audi does well on all their cars is present them with a sleek silhouette and modern interior. The Q7 takes an updated approach, integrating several driver features into the vibrant 12.3-inch infotainment screen and cockpit-inspired dash.
• Impressive Driver Assistance: Features for driver assistance in the Q7 include: Remote Parking Assistance, 360-View for traffic and pedestrian safety, and adaptive cruise control with lane guidance to help on long trips.

INFINITI QX60 vs. Audi Q7 Pricing

Pricing on the Infiniti QX60 and the Audi Q7 are both luxury prices, with new models starting at $49,200 and $59,200, respectively. In comparison, the Q7 has a couple of extra features, but the hefty additional cost for what amounts to little more than bells and whistles may make the Audi Q7 a tough purchase to justify. The trend of the QX60 being considerably less expensive carries through similar used models as well.

INFINITI QX60 vs. Audi Q7 Performance

The Audi Q7 is adequate but falls short in engine horsepower and handling performance. Further, the newest generation of QX60 sports a better-than-average fuel economy with an EPA estimated City: 19 MPG Hwy: 25 MPG, which just slightly beats the Audi Q7.

INFINITI QX60 vs. Audi Q7 Verdict

While you can't really go wrong with either of these two competitors, the Infiniti QX60 is our pick. It has a considerably lower price tag than the Audi Q7. Not to mention the QX60 feels roomier and comes with a more powerful engine than standard models while keeping the luxury feel.

Here we will break them down and explore the differences between these two vehicles to answer which is best for you. Which will you prefer, the Infiniti's luxury and power or the Lexus's lower price? Read on and discover.

Infiniti QX60 Breakdown

The second generation QX60 is a big seven-seater SUV with a sleek aesthetic inside and out. The newest 2023 QX60 has a modest 295 hp @ 6400 rpm, 3.5L V6 Engine.

Where the Infiniti QX60 shines:

• Comfort: The QX60 has far greater leg and headroom for the front seat, making it perfect for anyone, no matter how tall. Furthermore, the larger size of the QX60 allows for ample cargo space and expanded seating of up to seven.
• Improved Handling: The QX60 has a much tighter turning radius and corners better than the RX350.
• Safety: with standard Rear Automatic Braking, Forward Emergency Braking with pedestrian detection, Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and High Beam Assist, the QX60 is one of the safest family SUVs on the market.

Where the Infiniti QX60 Falls Short

• Price: The QX60 is slightly more pricey, owing to its larger size and more luxury branding.
• Efficiency: The Infiniti struggles to maintain over 26 MPG and will need more stops at the gas station.

INFINITI QX60 vs. Lexus RX350 Similarities

The Infiniti QX60 and the Lexus RX350 boast similar engine performance and identical base towing capacities. Although, the QX60 has an optional trim that expands the towing range. With equal horsepower and powertrain, they race in the same circles, and neither has a significant edge.

Lexus RX350 Breakdown

The newest Lexus RX350 has a 2.4L Turbo Inline-4, 275 hp @ 6000 rpm, baseline engine that performs just as well as the QX60 on base models. It sports a slimmer profile, a tighter budget, and a stylish and modern interior. Although, the Engine is no slouch either.

Where the Lexus RX350 shines:

• Price: The RX350 is cheaper than the larger crossover models and is one of the lowest price luxury models on the market. Although, used Lexus RX350s may cost more on average against similar year and mileage vehicles.
• Safety: With a reputation for five-star ratings, the Lexus RX350 has all the modern safety equipment we have come to expect, along with an expanded suite of driver awareness software to help prevent an accident.

Where the Lexus RX350 Falls Short:

• Size: The Lexus RX350 is on the smaller side of crossover SUV vehicles and suffers from a bit of an identity crisis between crossover and compact.
• Handling: The RX350 has a larger turning radius, despite its smaller size, and makes it harder to get in and out of tight spaces, which is a must for any city driving.

INFINITI QX60 vs. Lexus RX350 Verdict

Despite offering fierce competition and a similar style, the Lexus RX350 fails to live up to the luxury standard of the Infiniti QX60.

INFINITI QX55 vs. Lexus RX350: Baseline And Optional Pricing

Whether the improved handling and engine of the top model Lexus may sway your opinion, the QX55 requires a relatively lower investment in new and pre-owned models. The Infiniti QX55 represents the best value, and new models are priced at a modest $50,021 - $61,190, while the Lexus RX350 comes in at $52,299 - $65,200. Most of this disparity comes from the available models, as the QX55 only has three while the Lexus has five, including the F SPORT model.

Warranties on the QX55 and RX350 are similar, with the Infiniti offering 10,000 more miles on its four-year / 60,000 miles base warranty.

Winner: Slight Edge To Infiniti QX55- For a lower base price and ease of purchasing without a confusing number of trims.

INFINITI QX55 vs. Lexus RX350: Handling And Engine Performance

The Infiniti QX55 has a 268-hp, 2.0-liter, 4 Cylinder Engine on its base 2023 models and is slightly less 'powerful' than the Lexus RX350. The Lexus RX350 has a 295-hp, 3.5-liter, V6 Cylinder Engine that can tow up to 3,500 lbs with slightly low torque. What the Infiniti lacks in power, it makes up with a much tighter turning radius for better cornering and improved handling. Regarding efficiency, the duo are tied and have a similar fuel economy.

Winner: Slight Edge To Lexus RX350- For a larger engine that can deliver more power, despite the sacrifice to handling.

INFINITI QX55 vs. Lexus RX350: Interior And Features

The Infiniti and Lexus share similar interior features, and both include the following:

• Apple CarPlay
• Android Auto
• Keyless Entry
• Keyless Ignition
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Heated Seats
• Leather Upholstery
• Heated Steering Wheel

The Lexus falls short because it is quite a bit smaller than the Infiniti QX55 outside of the front row. Passengers in the back of an RX350 may find the interior cramped, while Infiniti QX55 owners can carry considerably more cargo in their crossover.

Safety Equipment is also similar across the board, with four and five-star awards each of the last few model years. The 2023 QX55 and RX350 have the following standard features:

• Forward Collision Warning
• Pedestrian Detection
• Lane Departure Warning
• Lane Keeping Assist
• Blind Spot Monitoring
• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert

Winner: Slight Edge To Infiniti QX55- For similar features in a larger package.

INFINITI QX55 vs. Lexus RX350: Final Verdict

While the Lexus RX350 has a slight edge in the luxury market, the Infiniti QX55 can perform well above what its lower price point may otherwise indicate. Large, competent, and comfortable, the Infiniti QX55 is an unquestionable force in the crossover market.
