Frequently Asked Questions
Can the QX60’s third row seat adults?
The QX60’s third row accommodates children and shorter adults on short trips. For extended travel with adult passengers, the spacious third row of the QX80 is far superior. If regular adult third-row use matters, the QX80 is the correct choice.
Does the QX65 really tow 6,000 lbs?
Yes. Despite its compact, coupe-inspired design, the QX65 is genuinely capable of towing 6,000 lbs. The QX60 doesn’t have towing capability; the QX80 tows 8,500 lbs. If towing is any priority, the QX65 is superior to the QX60.
Why is the QX80 more expensive?
The QX80 delivers a larger vehicle with a powerful 450 hp 3.5L twin-turbo V6, commanding presence, spacious third row suitable for adults, and 8,500 lb towing capacity. You’re paying for size, power, and capability. The QX60 and QX65 offer different value propositions for different needs.
Which model holds its value best?
All three INFINITI models hold value well due to strong brand reputation and reliability. The QX80’s larger size and luxury positioning may hold a slight edge.
