New Infiniti QX60: Luxury SUV for $51,000 or Just Another Overpriced Crossover?
Get ready, car lovers! Infiniti has just dropped its new QX60, a luxury SUV starting at a staggering $51,000! Yes, you read that right — over fifty grand for a vehicle that looks like it just got a mild facelift.
Design: Small Changes, Big Price
At first glance, the QX60 looks like it’s only been slightly refreshed. The new three-row crossover features a redesigned grille with an illuminated Infiniti emblem, daytime LED lights shaped like digital buttons, and a new front bumper with a simpler design. New wheels, a changed lower door section to give a longer, more horizontal look, and a more aerodynamic rear bumper. But is that really worth $51,000?
Interior: Tech That Might Impress
Inside, there’s a new 12.3-inch infotainment system with built-in Google services — Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Play Store. Buyers can opt for a premium Klipsch audio system and ProPilot Assist 2.1, a semi-autonomous driving aid. Upgraded cameras and new TailorFit upholstery are standard. Sounds great, but does it justify the price?
Performance: An Underwhelming Engine
Under the hood is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing a decent amount of horsepower and torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Buyers can choose front-wheel or all-wheel drive. For an SUV costing over $50,000, you might expect something stronger or at least a hybrid option, but nope — just a standard engine.
Price: Is Infiniti Overpriced?
The starting price of $51,000 for the base QX60 Pure model with LED lights, power tailgate, and 20-inch wheels sounds like Infiniti is targeting those who want luxury but don’t want to pay a premium for real innovation or performance. In a world where competitors offer hybrid and electric options, Infiniti seems stuck in the past.
Conclusion: Luxury or Just Another Expensive Crossover?
The Infiniti QX60 is certainly a nice-looking and tech-savvy SUV, but at over $50,000, you’d expect more than a mild facelift and a standard engine. Is this truly luxury or just another overpriced crossover trying to sell a brand name? You decide.
So, what do you think? Would you drop $51,000 on this Infiniti or go for something else? Drop a comment and let your voice be heard — maybe you know a better deal!
