The Evolution of the INFINITI QX60

The INFINITI QX60 has been a top choice for Edmond and Oklahoma City drivers for its handsome styling, impressive interiors, and continuously innovative technology over the past decade. The QX60 debuted ten years ago at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance as the brand’s first-ever three-row crossover SUV and continues to impress today in the latest 2024 QX60 at Bob Moore INFINITI. From hybrid engines to standard technology features, the QX60 has undergone notable changes, resulting in its continuous success as the years go on.

 

First Generation INFINITI QX60 

After debuting in 2011, the QX60 made its official release to consumers in 2013 under the name JX35. After one year, the three-row crossover from INFINITI was renamed to the QX60. The name change was followed the next year (2014) by adding a continuous variable transmission (CVT), a hybrid engine option, and Backup Collision Intervention, Blind Spot Warning/Intervention Systems as safety features became more advanced. 

 

2016 QX60 Refresh

After three years in production, the QX60 received a complete facelift in almost every area of the crossover SUV. New front and rear fascias with redesigned LED lights on both ends of the QX60 put the INFINITI SUV in the luxury conversation. INFINITI also introduced innovative updates such as Pre-crash Front Seatbelts, Front and Rear Sonar Systems, Lane Departure Warning/Prevention, and a Tri-Pane Panoramic Moonroof with sunshade.

 

2019 QX60 – Hybrid Engine Discontinued

The 2019 QX60 saw the end of the hybrid engine with a new 3.5-liter V-6 engine that uses the same continuous variable transmission (CVT) developed years before. The 2019 QX60 also added standard LED headlamps on every trim. The 2019 QX60 was a popular model among Oklahoma drivers and continues to ride the streets today.

Second Generation INFINITI QX60

The second generation of the INFINITI QX60 debuted alongside INFINITI’s future concept designs of the QX60 Monograph.
