Four model years into its second generation, the Infiniti QX60 is getting an infusion of luxury and tech for 2026. The three-row SUV wears a new grille and front bumper that mimic the pieces on the larger new-for-2025 QX80, and a new Sport trim level takes the position of the old QX60 Sensory. But most of the updates for the 2026 Infiniti QX60 are on the inside.

Fresh Cabin Tech
Standard equipment in the QX60’s interior now includes a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster along with a 12.3-inch touchscreen, which now features Google Built-In. The Luxe and Sport trims now boast a 16-speaker Klipsch audio system, while the Autograph enjoys a 20-speaker stereo with front-seat head restraint speakers that allow phone calls and navigation instructions to be broadcast only to the driver.
Trim levels from the Luxe on up also get an updated 360-degree camera system with moving-object detection, a wide-angle front view for poking the QX60’s nose out of a parking spot or busy side street and Invisible Hood for help spotting obstacles if you’re one of the nobody who off-roads their QX60. Far more likely to see use is Infiniti’s ProPilot Assist 2.1 semi-autonomous hands-free highway-driving tech, which is an extra-cost option on the Autograph trim.
The Pure and Luxe are upholstered in a new synthetic leather Infiniti calls TailorFit. The brand says it’s “more durable and softer to the touch than traditional imitation leather” and is manufactured from 65% recycled materials. Depending on trim level, buyers can choose from a light gray, graphite or brown interior, and a new two-tone black-and-blue option is only available on the Sport. The Pure and Luxe variants get metallic interior trim, while the Sport features black open-pore ash wood, to which the Autograph adds metal inlays.
What Are the 2026 QX60’s Trim Levels?
The QX60’s four trim levels progress from Pure at the bottom to Luxe, Sport and Autograph. Beyond the new interior tech, the biggest change to the base QX60 Pure is its wheels. Every QX60 trim level now rides on standard 20-inch wheels, but the design and finish vary between them. The Pure also includes LED exterior lighting, an illuminated Infiniti logo, power liftgate, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and keyless entry and start. Inside are power-adjustable heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, nine speakers, wireless phone charging and tri-zone automatic climate control. The 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster joins a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Google-Built-In and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Standard driver-assistance tech on the QX60 Pure includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, a lane departure prevention system, blind spot intervention, rear cross-traffic alert with automatic braking, and rear parking sensors.
The Luxe adds ventilated front chairs, heated outboard second-row seats, a power tilt/telescope steering column, second-row window shades and remote start. The Luxe also adds some additional safety tech, including adaptive cruise control, road-sign recognition, a driver-attention monitor, front parking sensors and a 360-degree camera system with the wide-angle front view.
Building off the Luxe, the Sport includes standard AWD and wears a unique front fascia and grille, as well as black wheels and dark exterior accents. A black roof is available with some paint colors for a two-tone finish. A black-and-blue interior and second-row captain’s chairs are standard.
At the top of the QX60 lineup is the Autograph, which boasts upgraded lighting outside, with adaptive headlights and ambient interior lighting with illuminated sill plates. The Autograph also features a hands-free power liftgate, 10.8-inch head-up display, perforated semi-aniline leather with contrast stitching and piping, and massaging front seats. The semi-autonomous hands-free ProPilot Assist 2.1 highway driving tech is optional only on the Autograph.
