The 2025 Infiniti QX60 enters the market with substantial enhancements, ensuring it remains a compelling choice in the three-row crossover segment. With the introduction of the striking Black Edition Package and a new advanced VC-Turbo engine, the QX60 combines aesthetic appeal with improved performance and efficiency.
New Black Edition Package
Infiniti introduces the Black Edition trim for the 2025 QX60, designed to accentuate the vehicle’s sculpted and handsome appearance. The Black Edition features gloss black 20-inch wheels, roof rails, grille surround, and exterior emblems. An illuminated Infiniti emblem in the front grille, along with illuminated kickplates and Welcome Lighting, enhance the vehicle's night-time appeal. Inside, the Black Edition continues its theme with a black headliner, creating a sophisticated and cohesive look. Exterior color options for this trim include Mineral Black, Majestic White, and the new-for-2025 Harbor Gray.
Advanced VC-Turbo Engine
The 2025 QX60 now employs Infiniti’s advanced Variable Compression Turbo (VC-Turbo) engine, a technological marvel that adjusts its compression ratio based on driving conditions. This 2.0-litre turbocharged engine produces 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque, an increase of 16 lb-ft over the previous model. The engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission featuring standard paddle shifters, ensuring responsive and confident driving performance. This powertrain not only enhances performance but also improves fuel efficiency, making the QX60 more economical to drive.
Family-Friendly Features and Comfort
The 2025 QX60 remains an excellent choice for families, offering three rows of seating and ample cargo space. It comfortably accommodates up to seven passengers, or six with the optional second-row captain’s chairs in the AUTOGRAPH trim. When the second and third rows are folded, the QX60 provides a generous 2,135 litres of cargo space. The front seats feature Infiniti's "Zero Gravity" technology, designed to reduce fatigue on long drives, while the second-row seats tilt and slide forward for easy access to the third row, even with a child safety seat installed.
Enhanced Technology and Connectivity
Infiniti has equipped the 2025 QX60 with a host of advanced technology features. The standard Infiniti InTouch™ system includes a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Android Auto™ and wireless Apple CarPlay® integration. The system also supports SiriusXM® Radio and includes a nine-speaker audio system. The Black Edition and higher trims upgrade to a Bose® Performance series 17-speaker sound system, delivering an immersive audio experience. Every QX60 comes with a standard wireless phone charger and five USB ports, ensuring all passengers can keep their devices charged and connected.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety is a priority for the 2025 QX60, which comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of standard safety features. These include Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Warning, and High Beam Assist. Available technologies, such as the Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection, Smart Rear View Mirror, Driver Attention Alert, and Traffic Sign Recognition, further enhance safety and ease of driving. The ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link system supports the driver during single-lane highway driving, reducing fatigue on long journeys.
Improved Towing Capacity
The new VC-Turbo engine and transmission combination has also improved the QX60's towing capabilities. The 2025 model features a standard transmission oil cooler, allowing it to tow up to 6,000 pounds, making it a versatile choice for those needing to tow trailers or recreational vehicles.

The 2025 Infiniti QX60 is now available for purchase, with a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $60,345. This pricing positions the QX60 competitively within its segment, offering a blend of luxury, performance, and advanced features.
