Infiniti QX60 review

It’s quite nice to sit in the cabin of the QX60. For drivers who like buttons, the good news is there is no lack of physical inputs. Between the steering wheel and the center console is about every function you could ask for, which is great for those of us with touchscreen fatigue, though the trade-off is it’s very busy.

Still, it’s all elegantly packaged and stylish without being overdone.

How is it in the back?

Seating in the second row isn’t anything to write home about. Some trims offer captains seats in lieu of a bench, which helps, but it’s otherwise standard fare, leaning towards the cozy side. A third row is available if you’ve got a couple extra passengers, we just hope they’re very small, particularly if you’re planning to transport anything bigger than a backpack.

With the seats up, there’s just 14.5 cu ft (410 liters) of space, which opens up to 41.6 cu ft (1,178 liters) if you fold them down. Max capacity is 75.4 (2,135 liters) if you get really desperate.

What’s the tech like?

Up front are two 12.3-inch screens acting as the driver display and the infotainment screen, respectively. The touchscreen has your usual gizmos, with the ones here being Google powered, which include maps and other apps from the Google Play store. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto overlays are compatible across the line-up, and drivers can make use of the Google Assistant voice commands.

Most trims are packed with a 16-speaker Klipsch audio system, with the top trim upping it to 20 and including a 24-channel amplifier.

A nice long list of safety systems are included, as is some version of Nissan’s ProPilot assist. This combines cruise control and steering assists for easier commuting over long hauls. In the Autograph trim, drivers have the option to use ProPilot assist 2.1, a hands-off driving assist that can also handle accelerating and braking. It’s not Super Cruise by any stretch, but it’s handy to have.
