What’s new for 2026:

    • Introduction of the Sport trim
    • Exterior refresh with a bamboo-inspired grille (influenced by the larger QX80)
    • New illuminated Infiniti badge and lighting accents on sills
    • Sport trim adds dark chrome accents and unique 20-inch wheels
    • Exclusive dark blue exterior + “dusk blue” interior

Performance & driving:

    • 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine
    • 268 hp/286 lb-ft torque
    • 9-speed automatic transmission
    • Standard all-wheel drive
    • Comfortable and smooth ride, though less powerful than the previous V6 models

Interior & tech highlights:

    • Premium, comfortable seating with distinctive blue leather (Sport exclusive)
    • Fully digital gauge cluster
    • Google built-in infotainment system (Google Maps, Assistant, Play Store integration)
    • Still includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
    • Features include:
    • Heated front seats + heated steering wheel
    • Dual-zone climate control
    • Wireless charging pad

    • High-quality audio system

Second & third row practicality:

    • Second row:

    • Rear climate controls
    • Flexible LATCH system (including middle seat option)
    • Third row:
    • Suitable for kids or occasional adult use
    • Limited cargo space behind it, but fold-flat seats expand storage significantly

Overall impressions:

    • Stylish, comfortable, and tech-forward three-row SUV
    • Best suited for families, especially with children
    • Not the most powerful in its class, but still enjoyable to drive
    • Strong value around $65,000 ($74,000 CAD)

Bottom line:

The 2026 QX60 Sport adds a more stylish and premium edge to an already well-liked family SUV, with standout interior design and modern tech, though it sacrifices some performance compared to older V6 versions.

    Thank you Connie … nice review. We bought one. 2026 QX60 with Luxe trim. White with gray / black interior. Did not like the black top on top of the White Sport version. Safety features - 360 view were big factors. Pro pilot is awesome on highway.

  • Oberkanone Dacia makes product line of affordable vehicles. An entire product line. One vehicle is not the answer for all needs. Dacia does affordable well.
  • YaMoBeThere This is an egregiously bad AI generated article, the middle of the article is repeated twice... but yea go ahead and nitpick about my comment pointing that out
  • Slavuta Is this Ok if I use OEM all weather floor mats? Yes, the ones that came with 2011 Mazda3 were not good. But the ones in 2017 Mazda6 are excellent. BTW, in that picture, Grand Cherokee on Kumho tires. Is this also an advert or just coincidence?
  • Bar170111344 "GM was on track to spend $31.7 billion on compliance technology through 2031."I'll just mention, that expenditure would have gone into research and development, and that would have driven U.S. manufacturing innovation. On the industrial side, R&D is necessary for U.S. manufacturers to remain competitive in the world. It's absolutely no surprise China is running rings around us. The prospective $ savings GM is looking forward to hasn't impressed the stock market. Year-to-date return of -5.65%. -7.05% in the last month. PE 20:1, inflated by the falling share price. Not to be insulting by any stretch, but it has never been like Mary Barra to get out ahead of anything. She's not an innovator and not a risk taker. She's a good engineer.Honestly - in that industry, which I worked in for decades, being regulated is like having a security blanket. You can be mediocre, blame it on regulation, and still make a buck. And with the federal government now digging an even deeper moat around GM and Ford, it's clearly suppressing American innovation and excellence.
