2019 Infiniti QX60

2019 Infiniti QX60 Overview

Is the 2019 Infiniti QX60 a Good Used SUV?

Yes, the 2019 QX60 is a good used luxury midsize SUV. It has a strong powertrain, a smooth transmission, decent fuel economy estimates, and a roomy cabin. The QX60 also has below-average five-year ownership costs and a more affordable average purchase price than many of its rivals.

This Infiniti does have some weaknesses, however. Its handling and ride comfort earn mixed reviews, and its cabin is less upscale than some other luxury vehicles. Additionally, while not bad, its safety score is among the lowest in the class.

The 2019 Acura MDX is another relatively affordable seven-passenger luxury SUV. If you don’t need the extra seats, you might also consider the compact 2019 Infiniti QX50 or the subcompact 2019 QX30. On the other hand, you could consider the QX60's full-size sibling, the QX80.

Which Used Infiniti QX60 Trim Is Right for Me?

The 2019 QX60 is available in two trim levels: Pure and Luxe. Both come with a 3.5-liter V6 engine and an automatic transmission. The base trim has enough comfort, tech, and safety features to satisfy most shoppers. The Luxe trim doesn’t add much in the way of standard equipment, but Infiniti did offer it with several optional packages when it was new.

• Infiniti QX60 Pure: The entry-level Pure trim comes with the InTouch infotainment system, an 8-inch display, satellite radio, a six-speaker sound system, a USB port, Bluetooth, heated and power-adjustable front seats, synthetic leather upholstery, tri-zone automatic climate control, proximity keyless entry, a moonroof, a power liftgate, alloy wheels, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, and a rearview camera.
• Infiniti QX60 Luxe: The Infiniti QX60 Luxe adds a 13-speaker Bose stereo, remote start, and a heated steering wheel. The Luxe is the only trim available with ventilated front seats, heated second-row outboard seats, a second- and third-row moonroof, a 15-speaker surround-sound stereo, a navigation system, and a rear-seat entertainment system with dual 8-inch monitors. Genuine leather or Nappa leather upholstery is available as well. Available driver assistance features include front and rear parking sensors, a surround-view parking camera system with moving object detection, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, blind spot intervention, and automatic high-beam headlights. Some of these are part of Infiniti’s ProAssist package.

What Does Infiniti's Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Cover?

Infiniti offers a certified pre-owned program for vehicles six years old or less and with fewer than 70,000 miles. Eligibility is determined by the vehicle’s initial sale date. The Infiniti certified pre-owned warranty has three levels of coverage based on the vehicle’s age and mileage.

Vehicles with less than 15,000 miles receive a six-year/75,000-mile warranty from the original new-car purchase date. Vehicles less than four years old with more than 15,000 miles receive a six-year/unlimited-mileage warranty from the original new-car purchase date. Finally, vehicles more than four years old with more than 15,000 miles receive a two-year/unlimited-mileage warranty good from the CPO purchase date. Infiniti CPO vehicles must pass a 167-point inspection. Infiniti CPO vehicles also receive free maintenance for one year. Additional benefits like towing, roadside assistance, and trip interruption coverage may be available, so read the Infiniti warranty page carefully.

Infiniti has one of the better CPO programs in the industry, according to our analysis. Lexus and Audi are among the very few that are better.

2019 Infiniti QX60 Versus the Competition

Which Is Better: 2019 Infiniti QX60 or 2019 Audi Q7?

The 2019 Audi Q7 is a good luxury midsize SUV. Its richly equipped infotainment system features standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, neither of which are available in the QX60. The Audi also boasts premium cabin materials, and its engaging handling makes it more fun to drive than the Infiniti. It comes standard with a four-cylinder engine, but its available supercharged V6 engine is much stronger than anything in the Infiniti. The QX60 has more cargo space, but in most other areas, the Q7 is the better vehicle.

Which Is Better: 2019 Infiniti QX60 or 2019 Nissan Pathfinder?

The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is essentially the nonluxury version of the Infiniti. Both vehicles have 3.5-liter V6 engines, smooth-operating transmissions, and comparable mpg ratings. The Infiniti has nicer cabin materials and more available safety features, but the Nissan has a bit more cargo space behind every row. It’s likely to be more affordable too. Choosing between these two crossovers comes down to your budget and preferences.

2019 QX60 Performance

How Does the 2019 Infiniti QX60 Drive?

The Infiniti gets mixed reviews for its driving and handling demeanor. Some critics find the suspension to be soft and the ride pillowy but note that the QX60’s heavy body roll and significant understeer can make the vehicle cumbersome to drive. Others say that it handles well and takes turns with poise but note that the ride can feel jittery.

Quiet and powerful, this vehicle's V6 engine provides plenty of punch for most driving situations. Power is readily on tap, both to launch the SUV from a stop and for those quick bursts needed to pass other cars on the highway. The continuously variable automatic transmission works smoothly and doesn't create the loud droning noise that's often associated with CVTs.

• Engine: 3.5-liter V6 with 295 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque
• Drivetrain: standard front-wheel drive; available all-wheel drive
• Transmission: continuously variable automatic (CVT)

Does the 2019 Infiniti QX60 Get Good Gas Mileage?

This luxury crossover SUV gets an EPA-estimated 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. Models with all-wheel drive lose 1 mpg from both figures. Overall, fuel economy is a hair above average for the class.

2019 Infiniti QX60 Towing Capacity

The QX60 can tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.

2019 QX60 Interior

How Many People Does the 2019 QX60 Seat?

The 2019 QX60 is a three-row crossover SUV that seats seven people. The front seats are firm, but not uncomfortably so, and they do a good job keeping occupants in place. The second row slides forward and back to allow for easy access to the third row, and there’s enough space for adults to sit comfortably in both back rows, at least for shorter trips.

Some soft-touch, wood, and leather surfaces enhance this Infiniti’s cabin, but the few trim pieces taken from the 2019 Nissan Pathfinder keep it from feeling as upscale as some rivals.

Standard seating features:

• Eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat
• Six-way power-adjustable front passenger seat
• 60/40-split-folding second-row seats
• 50/50-split-folding third-row seats
• Synthetic leather upholstery

Available seating features:

• Genuine leather upholstery
• Ventilated front seats
• Heated second-row outboard seats
• Heated steering wheel

How Many Child Car Seats Fit in the 2019 Infiniti QX60?

This SUV has two complete sets of LATCH car-seat connectors for the second-row outboard seats and an upper tether for the second-row middle seat. Each third-row seat gets a single tether.

2019 Infiniti QX60 Features

There are plenty of physical controls for the infotainment system, but some of the buttons and knobs are oddly placed or hard for the driver to reach. On the plus side, the available touch screen is easy to use. Smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is unavailable.

• Standard infotainment features: InTouch infotainment system with an 8-inch display, two USB ports, Bluetooth, a six-speaker stereo, and satellite radio
• Available infotainment features: a navigation system, an 8-inch touch screen, a rear-seat entertainment system with two 8-inch screens, a 120-volt household-style power outlet, and a Bose audio system with 13 or 15 speakers
• Additional standard features: push-button start, proximity keyless entry, tri-zone automatic climate control, and a front-row moonroof
• Other available features: remote start and a moonroof over the second and third rows

2019 Infiniti QX60 Dimensions

Infiniti QX60 Cargo Space

The QX60 has 16 cubic feet of space behind the third row, 40.5 cubic feet behind the second row, and a total of 76.2 cubic feet with both rows folded down. Space behind the second and third rows is impressive for a luxury midsize SUV, but the total figure is average among three-row luxury crossovers. Models with the panoramic moonroof lose a little bit of space.

A power liftgate comes standard, and a hands-free, motion-activated liftgate is available.
