The 3rd row seat has more room but hardly any cargo space left this is the only drawback. Great safety features at a great price for this luxury SUV with all the features they took off $7,000 off MSRP end of year 2016 but brand new, and Eric our sale rep was perfect the best knows how to treat customers the whole team over there at Claredon Hills Infinity went way over board.

improved looks and handling, space in infotainment

I just bought this SUV a month ago with delux technology w/ theater and I am very impressed overall. Handling improvement is noticeable and all the active safety works really great. Blind spot intervention helped me once in a bad situation when I was not focusing 100% due to my toddler. On the downside, infotainment looks old and all aroundview carmera are low resolution, even the rearview camera. Small road imperfections are not hidden by suspension and felt by all passengers.

I rented this for a week and went 2000 miles

I had to take a trip for work, in a rental. I was looking for something that was comfortable for the driver, since my feet have issues in alot of cars with not enough legroom and awkward resting spots for my non-driving foot. The interior was sharp, albeit missing basics for an expensive "luxury" car, like blind spot mirrors if not a blind spot warning system. Same with bluetooth, no music streaming although you can connect your phone. No nav system, for such a "luxury" brand, should be a crime. The backup camera monitor was cheesy at best, and made the cheap Toyota RAV4 backup camera monitor look like HDTV. Did it have nice finishes? Yes. Did it look amazing? Yes. I got 25 mpg on average, driving 70-75 mph, for 1000 miles non-stop in one day. And I did it in one day on the way home too. After spending 18 hours in the car, non-stop, you notice stuff. You notice that you are in a luxury car, that is missing basics. The headlights were amazing. The LED daytime lights and fog lights were very sharp. But, it didn't have backup sensors to alert when too close, or even cross traffic detection. For a luxury SUV of this size, I'd say that isn't fair. All of that said, handling was most disappointing. It had alot of road drifting, when at the highway speeds over 60 mph....it felt like the steering was jerky, and had to keep on it to keep it under control. It was a newer car with only 5K on the odometer when I left. I came back with over 7K on the odometer, done in two days - two very long non stop days. I noticed a fair amount of vibration - my GPS on the dash mount was shaky and rattling alot. That was annoying. But I was comfortable. And two guys had all their luggage easily fitting into the rear cargo area with loads of room to spare. But I didn't long to drive, my partner at work drove most of the way. He too noticed the challenging drive of this car. It is BIG, and it takes little effort to steer, but wish it was a bit firmer steering. A nice car in many ways, but I felt I could not enjoy the ride as I felt I was always correcting the car to keep it in my lane, thereby minimizing the experience (which I thought would be luxurious vs. tedious) on such a long ride back and forth.

EXCELLENT FAMILY SUV

I leased this vehicle to replace a M37x. I shopped for a new Q70 , but this vehicle had a better overall value. It is too much car for me personally, because I don't have a large at home family anymore. But with the suttle upgrades in the exterior design for 2016, the smoothness of the ride, and the ample roominess and interior quality (and nice simple controls) of the vehicle, I was convinced to go with the QX60. The Infiniti incentives to waive some remaining lease payments and other dealer incentives helped to get me in the door. After seeing the QX60 fully loaded on the floor with the 20 inch wheels in diamond pearl white and java interior, I took that vehicle that day. In retrospect, I did what I never do, completed an impulse buy without full research.

Disappointed

I have had one of these as a rental car for over a week and can safely say I dislike it more than the day I got it. As a vehicle it has nice seats and decent room but I expected much more from it. The ride for a normal SUV is decent but not for this level of SUV. The trim looks nice but there is cheapness in nasty places. For example the plastic on the steering wheel is thin and sticks out almost cutting your hand. It has poor acceleration by my standards.

Great SUV

After debating between the 2017 MDX and the 2016 QX60, it is definitely clear to see who the winner was. Infiniti blew us away with the use of getting to the third row and the amount of legroom in the third row compared to the MDX. I also liked what features were available on the QX60 than compared to the MDX, as the QX60 had more practical features for a vehicle in this segment in packages that made more sense than it did in the MDX. For example, the around view monitor, heated steering wheel, and USB ports in the third row require the highest level package from Acura, while Infiniti has these features offered in its mid-level package. Additionally, the service that the Infiniti dealership gave us compared to Acura was another reason to go with the QX60; I feel more at ease for any services in the future.

I bought the 3.5 AWD with all Packages except the Theatre package which I found not really useful considering we are in the age of iPads and Tablets. I test drove 2016 Acura MDX but didn't like the bland interior, button gear selector and the low driving position. For the QX60 I got the Hermosa Blue with Wheat and it looks gorgeous!!! The styling of the 2016 Model looks way more stylish and sportier than the 2015 model. The 2016 also drives a lot smoother and feels quicker off the block. The sport mode is a blast and I am amazed at the ease with which this huge car can get going on the freeway and pass other cars. The surround view 360' camera is awesome and makes parking this huge vehicle a breeze. The interior in whet stands out and adds to the overall pleasure of driving. The back and rear seats are very spacious though could have done with better lateral support. Just love the remote start feature and helps cooling the car ahead in hot summer days. Navigation is pretty awesome in the sense that it is simple to use and doesn't go overboard in terms of tech. All the buttons and knobs are easy to use and can be used even when the vehicle is in motion (as against the Pilot where this is restricted). Overall I am very pleased with this car and enjoy spending time inside it. Would very much recommend to anyone looking out for a Luxury 3-row crossover.

Very good vehicle with a few corrections needed

I have only had this vehicle for a month but all seems pretty good so far. There is a rattle in the front dash drivers side, but I am guessing loose or missing clips, which the dealership is doing all they can to make sure the problem is corrected. City driving on standard mode is about 3 - 4 mpg less than sticker. I do drive conservative so do not expect to get much better than that. The seat are comfortable but dont hold you like other vehicles I have had. They do not feel like they were built for anyone over 5' 10". I have not had the vehicle long enough to know about repairs but the garage I deal with for other cars say they almost never see Infiniti's with problems. The one item I did forget to mention is the camera system, I think they could have used better, higher resolution cameras.

Excellent Choice

Overall good ride and good safety features. The 360 degree view offer great assistance for parking. The new transmition system is so good that you can hardly notice the gears shifting.

2016 QX60 Beware of Problems

Everyone knows about the undersized engine, etc. So I'm going to share my views on other issues. Rear seats are not comfortable as the there is no thigh support. Front seats lumbar does not extend far out enough. Car emits high pitched whistling noise when air is on recirculation. Take a look at this Video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0sUMvyP6YI Two car dealers says its normal. So if you like your car to whistle then this is the car for you! Personally, I've leased 3 Infinitis in the past 10 years. Been driving 30 years, and never had this problem in any other car, so I don't think its normal. I regret my trust in Infiniti on this model.

Absolutely in Love with my New QX60

I test drove probably every three row SUV on the market before deciding on the QX60. I had been driving a 2011 Toyota Sienna that had over 140,000 miles on it and felt it was time to start looking for a new car. Prior to that car I leased three other minivans...two Honda and another Sienna. It was time to move on from the minivan, however I still needed a true third row to have teenage kids sit in from time to time as well as ample cargo space. Most of the other three row SUV's have a joke of a third row that is only meant for someone under ten years old. I test drove the AUDI Q7 and although it's a beautiful car, the third row wasn't nearly as accessible or large as this one and to get all of the equipment I got in the QX60 it would have cost more than $15,000 more. The same story for the Mercedes and the BMW with the BMW having the smallest third row. I considered the Toyota Highlander, and although that is a very nice car with ample room, it's just not nearly as luxurious as the Infiniti QX60, and is quite sparce with the interior details. I even considered the new Honda Pilot fully loaded, until I read all of the Edmunds reviews, and that car for now is a load of trouble. Plus again, it just wasn't as luxurious as this car. The styling of the QX60 is beautiful. The 2016 interior has been tweaked and is now really beautiful. I had looked at the 2015 a few months earlier and didn't love the interior which was why it initially fell off of my short list. When the 2016 came out I revisited the car, and the decision became clear. Technology - the technology is extremely user friendly. Everything is intuitive and so easy to learn. The voice command system actually works and understands what you are saying. So many of the other cars I test drove did not. The navigation is equally easy to use and prompts you early enough to make the system easy to follow. The sound system is outstanding. I think they told me it's a 13 speaker BOSE system. It fills the car beautifully with music. I did get the top of the line model with every bell and whistle available. The new safety features this car has are awesome as well. I love the road departure feature and the cross traffic alert. The car comes with a ton of outside cameras which is super useful as well when parking. I can actually look at the side camera view with the touch of one button and see if my car is too close or far from the curb if I am parallel parking or even parking in a regular space. I love that the car came equipped with heated seats (front and rear) and A/C seats in the front. The A/C seats really works quickly and makes it so comfortable to drive when you get into a hot car. Interior - Plenty of storage space. I wanted a large center console and this one has a two level console which houses everything but in an organized manner. The glove compartment is equally huge. The second row is adjustable front and back and the seats recline as well. The third row seats recline as well which makes you feel like there is more room if you are sitting in third row. If you are a tall adult you probably wouldn't want to go on a really long trip, but an hour or so would be no big deal to sit back there. Behind the third row there is a hidden compartment underneath to store a few things as well. Overall this car is the perfect fit for me. It gives me everything I was looking for...a luxurious vehicle that I can really enjoy whether driving alone or toting the kids all over in.

Lexus RX with 3rd row (now with sport package)

Luxury, quiet interior (much better then plain Acura MDX), roomy driver/passenger seats (unlike cocoon in Audi Q7), roomy 3rd row (unlike Q7 or Volvo XC90), made in USA (unlike Q7 (Slovakia) or Volvo XC90), softer ride then in harsh XC90/Q7

Fancy, sleek, but not worth the dollars

I drove one around for a week as a replacement for repairs. I put about 1000 miles on it, it was new. Some things really stood out. First, it is a beautiful SUV, seats are comfortable with leather and plenty of space. Vision is nice with few blind spots. It accelerates nicely and the V6 is really responsive, if a little noise. Cruises at 75 nicely and very smooth. But, for A $50,000 car (I had a base model), it was really not much car for the money. Bluetooth paired with phone for calls, but not for music....kind of amazing in todays world. It did have an Aux jack in the storage, but that was not real useful. Amazingly, it had RCA jacks too, not sure if Infinity thought I was going to hook up a cassette deck or something. Back up camera was nice, especially with a 7 inch screen, but the infotainment system was useless so it was a waste of a screen, climate controls were confusing and not easy to use. Really much prefer my Outback, though not quite as comfortable, it does have many more features for much less money. If it isabout looking good in a car, this is it, otherwise, I will pass.

I purchased this in March and so far the car has been just what I need. This is my first infiniti and I am extremely happy with it. I got a very good deal and I got the AWD with premium and + package which is so awesome and not too fancy. I got the Hermosa Blue with graphite interiors. Its perfect!! With the premium + package you get a lot of features such as illuminated strips of Infiniti on the doors, ambient lights, door lights. They have a nice design for the 2016. It looks really sporty and interiors are very comfortable. I was thinking of using regular fuel as company recommends Premium fuel, again its upto you. I have been putting 93 and 89 octane to get a average of 91 octane as this is recommended by Infiniti if you read the owners manual. I am very happy with this car and looking forward to post a review in 6 months. I got 3 years free oil service and tire rotations from Harte Infiniti Hartford. Tires I have now is AS Toyo Open Country A25 235/65/R18. I am planning to upgrade this to 235/55/R20 with Pirellis Scorpion Verde AS. Keep smiling and live life!!
