Updated Powertrain
The turbocharged 2.0-liter’s 268 horsepower is a drop of 27 compared to the V-6 in the 2024 model, but its 286 pounds-feet of torque represents an increase of 16. Backing the VC-Turbo, which is Infiniti’s name for the engine, is a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on the three lower trim levels, with all-wheel drive available for $2,000; AWD is standard on the range-topping Autograph trim.
Fuel economy with the new engine increases slightly from the 2024 QX60’s figures, per Infiniti, with front-drive SUVs rated at 22/28/24 mpg city/highway/combined and AWD variants returning 22/27/24 (official 2025 figures are not yet available). The 2024 QX60 was rated at 21/26/23 mpg with FWD and 20/25/22 mpg with AWD. Towing capacity with the four-cylinder is unchanged from the V-6 QX60, at 6,000 pounds.
Fade to Black
A new Black Edition Package is now available for the mid-level Luxe trim; it can be had on black, white and gray QX60s. It features black finishes on the 20-inch wheels, roof rails, grille surround and exterior badging, as well as an illuminated Infiniti logo in the grille and a black headliner. The QX60 Luxe also gets a newly standard 17-speaker Bose audio system. All trim levels now feature keyless entry and starting with a fob that automatically unlocks the doors as the driver approaches the vehicle and locks it as they walk away.
