For 2023, Infiniti continues to offer one of the most robust and comprehensive line-ups of crossovers and SUVs available on the luxury market. Offering a number of body styles, engine types and drive types, there’s something for everyone when it comes to Infiniti utility for ’23.
2023 Infiniti QX50 and QX55
Technically what we see here are two different models, but they do share many of the same components even though they do look significantly different, especially when seen in profile. The QX50 is one of the bestselling models Infiniti offers thanks to its advanced styling – namely the aggressive front grille, the headlight lenses and the wheels – as well as well-equipped interior finished in the finest quality materials. It gets the more “wagon”-like profile of the two, meaning slightly more rear seat room and more cargo space. Both the QX50 and QX55 come powered by a 2.0-litre turbo good for 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, sent to all four wheels through a continuously carriable automatic transmission (CVT). In addition to being turbocharged, the engine also gets variable-compression tech so it drives like a turbo gas engine, but has the efficiency more akin to a diesel engine. The QX50 is available in three trims for 2023: Pure AWD, Sport AWD and Sensory AWD.
For its part, the QX55 is the more athletic-looking of the two vehicles thanks to its aggressively sloping rear deck, which provides a more coupe-like look overall. It comes available in three trims as well: Luxe AWD, Essential AWD and Sensory AWD and like the QX50, it comes available only with AWD although – also like the QX50 – it’s a front-biased AWD system. That means power is directed to the front wheels unless they are slipping, at which point power can be sent rearwards for traction when you need it and you’ll get better fuel economy when you don’t.
2023 Infiniti QX60
From sporty two-row crossovers we move to the more grand touring-esque three-row QX60. Available only as a three-row model and with AWD, the QX60 nevertheless gets the same fantastic styling that’s just the right amount of luxurious and aggressive, anchored by a five-point grille up front and LED headlights. Inside, we find top-drawer leather seating as standard (four trims are available: Pure AWD, Luxe AWD, Sensory AWD and Autograph AWD), standard panoramic moonroof, standard wireless charging and standard heated front- and second-row seats. The top-tier Autograph spec, meanwhile, provides semi-aniline leather, contrast-colour roof, 2nd-row captains chairs and more.
No matter the trim, power comes courtesy of a 3.5-litre naturally-aspirated V6 good for 295 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, with a fast-shifting ZF 9-speed automatic. It also gets AWD as standard although it gets a fast-acting single-clutch AWD system for quicker power shuffling between the axles. As a result, it gets a more rear-wheel-drive feel than the QX50.
2023 Infiniti QX80
For the flagship model, we turn to the QX80, a body-on-frame truck-based SUV that is the only vehicle in the group with a two-speed transfer case for the best ground-covering (well, ground-crushing, anyway) attitude of the group. It is also the only vehicle here to come powered by a gutsy V8 powerplant (across all four trims: Luxe 7-Passenger 4WD, Luxe 8-Passenger 4WD, ProACTIVE 7-passenger 4WD and ProACTIVE 8-passenger 4WD) good for 400 hp and 413 pound-feet of torque. That’s all sent to the four wheels via a seven-speed automatic with manual mode, for even more control while off-roading. It can also tow up to 8,500 pounds – you really have quite the all-rounder with the QX80.
And let’s not forget that it remains part of a luxury line-up, meaning standard leather seating, 12.3” infotainment display, built-in Amazon Alexa and alloy wheels.
In the competitive world of midsize SUVs, the 2023 Nissan Pathfinder and 2023 Honda Pilot have a lot to offer. However, when we put them head-to-head, the Nissan Pathfinder stands out in three key areas: better value, superior towing capacity, and improved fuel economy. Let's take a closer look...
