(Never do cars redesigned for the American market get more svelte or subtle.) The vehicle also adds more smart tech. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The Sport grade tested is also new for 2026, and it jazzes up inside and out. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The VC-Turbo four-cylinder replaced the old V-6 in 2025, and there\u2019s a lot to say about that power plant below. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Competition:<\/b> Acura MDX, Audi Q7, BMW X7, Cadillac Escalade, Cadillac XT6, Land Rover Range Rover, Lexus GX, Lexus TX, and Volvo XC90.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Up to speed: <\/b>I can be as focused as the next car guy on 0-60 times, but years of testing have proven time and again that there\u2019s so much more. The 0-60 time of 6.9 seconds, according Motor Trend, is respectable among premium three-row SUVs.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But if I stopped here, you\u2019d being missing a lot. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>This is the QX60\u2019s second year featuring 268-horsepower VC-Turbo 2-liter four-cylinder engine name, which sounds pretty cool in a Marvin Martian kind of way. Much like the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator!, though, this VC-Turbo is still in beta testing.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Each standing start revealed the QX60 had more hesitation than Mr. Driver\u2019s Seat trying to explain a dent on a test vehicle. I\u2019d press the accelerator and for easily a second, the QX60 would hem and haw. Frightening. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The denouement came while turning left from a parking lot onto a 50-mph stretch of U.S. 322. Even in Sport mode, I was sweating getting to 50 mph quickly enough, let alone 60. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>I had much better success with a 3.5-liter V-6 in a 2022 QX60, although I\u2019m trusting that \u201csome hesitation\u201d back then was far better than this time around. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Good to go: <\/b>Not everything about the drive was terrible. On the first day behind the wheel, I found the QX60 to feel somewhat sporty and fun. It seemed to have a bit of a kick to it, almost Jeep Wranglerlike in its roughness. But that got old really fast, especially in light of the unpredictable accelerator. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Shifty: <\/b>The 9-speed automatic transmission operated seamlessly while driving, but it also revealed one weird habit while getting in gear: It rolled back quite a bit. In fact, its rolling could almost match clutch driving. This seemed more prominent in Sport mode. Presumably there\u2019s an auto hold button I could have engaged, but I haven\u2019t needed to in 40 years of driving. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The shifter is modeled on Lexus\u2019 long-ago handle, a square top that pulls back or pushes forward depending on where you want to go. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>If you want to shift your own gears, though, it\u2019s paddle city for you. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>On the road:<\/b> The handling of the QX60 never got me excited. Curves and turns came and went, and I sought out enjoyment, but was left disappointed. At least the vehicle felt small and athletic for a three-row SUV.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=823\">\ud83c\udf0a Should houses be 4 feet higher? | Down the Shore<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Sport mode, though, was a rough one on the highways; any road seams of note set the QX60 to shaking.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Friends and stuff:<\/b> The second row provides comfortable enough captains\u2019 chairs, with decent space overall. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But the third row is only for youngsters. Getting back there is hard, clambering past the second-row seats. Foot room in the rear is pitiful, even with the middle row scooched up a bit. I had to twist my size 12s with my hand to turn them into place. Finally, the door is narrow, and hopping out feels as death-defying as Lindsey Vonn\u2019s last ride. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Cargo space is 14.5\/41.6\/75.4 cubic feet, depending on the ups and downs.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Driver\u2019s Seat: <\/b>The cockpit felt very Nissan-esque, with the usual controls and gauges found on the lesser make\u2019s models. Granted, Nissans do generally feel more luxurious than they have a right to, but we\u2019re paying for Infiniti luxury here. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The seat was comfortable enough but no oohs and aah were emitted during test week. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Play some tunes:<\/b> Sound from the system was disappointing for the model level, about a B. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>A dial for volume and another for tuning make the system a little easier to control than many nowadays. The 12.3-inch touchscreen is par for the vehicle class. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Keeping warm and cool:<\/b> An ebony touchpad has Audi-style haptics, where you have to press hard enough to register your feelings. So it\u2019s good for not accidentally setting off unwanted features as you slide around the pad, but in the Infiniti there\u2019s no feel, so you still have to look. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Fuel economy:<\/b> The QX60 averaged just under 21 mpg. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>Where it\u2019s built:<\/b> Smyrna, Tenn. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>How it\u2019s built: <\/b>Consumer Reports had no guess for the new model\u2019s reliability, but 2025\u2019s was a 4 out of 5. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><b>In the end: <\/b>Most of the vehicles in the competition list lack space in the rear, but the QX60 is exceptionally difficult. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But if the engine hesitation was not just a test-model problem, I\u2019d write it off.
