Luxury SUVs are all about finding the perfect balance between style, space, performance, and technology. INFINITI delivers both versatility and sophistication in its SUV lineup, especially with the INFINITI QX50 and INFINITI QX60. While they share a design perspective, these two models offer distinct advantages for different lifestyles.
At INFINITI of Cool Springs, serving Franklin, Brentwood, Nashville, and beyond, we’re here to help you compare the QX50 and QX60 in practical, real-world terms. Whether you’re a solo commuter, a busy parent, or someone who craves upscale convenience, here’s how each SUV stacks up.
Exterior Design & Size
QX50: A compact crossover with sleek lines, aerodynamic proportions, and signature INFINITI LED lighting. It’s perfect for city dwellers, with a refined footprint that fits easily in urban settings and tight garages.
QX60: A bold, commanding midsize SUV with a more muscular stance and larger presence. Its athletic profile and available 20-inch alloy wheels make it an ideal choice for families seeking luxury and presence on the road.
Interior Space & Comfort
QX50: Designed for five passengers, the QX50 features leather-appointed seating, noise-insulated cabin materials, and a standard panoramic moonroof. Its zero-gravity front seats reduce fatigue on longer drives, and the rear legroom remains generous for a compact SUV.
QX60: Offers three rows and seats up to seven. Premium quilted semi-aniline leather, open-pore wood trim, and ambient lighting create a first-class atmosphere. The second-row seats slide and tilt, providing easy access to the third row even with a child seat installed.
