What is the difference between the INFINITI QX65 and QX60?
Both share the same platform and are built at the same Smyrna, Tennessee facility. The QX60 is a three-row family SUV (7 passengers), while the QX65 is a two-row coupe-crossover (5 passengers) with a fastback roofline, 35.8 cu. ft. of cargo space (5.8 cu. ft. less than QX60), and a sportier, performance-focused character. The QX65 starts at $55,535; the QX60 starts at $53,085. The QX65 replaces the discontinued QX50 and QX55.
Is the INFINITI QX65 the successor to the FX?
Yes. INFINITI has positioned the QX65 as the spiritual successor to the legendary FX35/FX45 and later QX70 — reviving the brand's performance-coupe crossover DNA with a modern fastback design, advanced technology, and the "Artistry in Motion" design philosophy.
Will the INFINITI QX65 have a V6 engine?
At launch, the QX65 comes with a confirmed 2.0-liter VC-Turbo four-cylinder producing 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic and standard AWD. Automotive News has reported that a 3.5-liter V6 option producing approximately 300 horsepower could be added later, which could set the stage for a Red Sport performance variant, but INFINITI has not officially confirmed that engine option.
How much does the 2027 INFINITI QX65 cost?
The 2027 INFINITI QX65 starts at $55,535 (Luxe trim, including destination). The Sport trim is $57,235, and the range-topping Autograph is $64,134. This positions the QX65 significantly below competitors like the BMW X6, Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe, and Porsche Cayenne Coupe.
What competitors does the QX65 face?
The 2027 INFINITI QX65 competes in the midsize luxury coupe-crossover segment against the BMW X6, Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe, Genesis GV80 Coupe, Porsche Cayenne Coupe, and Audi Q8. At $55,535, the QX65 undercuts all of these competitors by tens of thousands of dollars while offering standard AWD, 6,000-lb towing, and a Klipsch premium audio system.
What audio system does the QX65 have?
The base QX65 Luxe comes with an 11-speaker system. The Sport trim upgrades to a 16-speaker, 600-watt Klipsch system with an 8-inch subwoofer. The Autograph features a 20-speaker, 1,200-watt Klipsch Reference Premiere system with headrest speakers — one of the most powerful audio systems in its class.

Every 2027 QX65 comes standard with Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Lane Departure Prevention, Rear Parking Sensors, and INFINITI's ProPILOT Assist Level 2 driver assistance system.
