someone who is shopping for a lx570 or land cruiser wont even look at this, its not even comparable - I didnt. its a very nice suv but not something I would keep for more than 3 years. But unlike what the video suggested I would buy this over the GLS well because from a reliability standpoint. The LX/land cruiser you keep for 10+ years. there is a reason why they cost much more and they have one of the best resale value of any SUV outside of the G wagon.

Say what you want but every year they increase sales over the prior year. same with QX60. yes its the same basic vehicle since 2013 with no major upgrades, only minor refreshes, but is now selling some months as many as the Pathfinder which can be found at 20, 000-30, 000 less. major updates to infotainment system across the board is coming in 2021 and with that all models will have been fully redesigned by 2022.

Hey Alex, the center console is removable, a pain in the ass to do, but it is removable. In fact, the tools needed to remove it is located with the tools to change out the spare tire. I believe its a T40 bit and 10mm or 12mm socket or wrench (Nissan provides an T40 Allen wrench and 2 combination wrenches. Nissan also sells a floormat that will cover the middle and rear section once you remove the center console.

Waaay too expensive when you could get a Navigator. The tech is old, the engine is old, the styling is old. And Alex gives it all these A? Sounds like politics to me. But I will be fair: Doug DeMuro also likes to play politics with his evaluation so that it fits in his graph where he wants it to fit. But overall, the facts are there and most times I agree. Today, I feel the grades did not match the facts.

I love this SUV. except for the ancient tech inside. Love the look, the interior materials, the power and the ride quality. Easy to see why it sells so well. But Infiniti slacked off in the refresh, and didnt update the tech inside. They rested on their laurels. For less than 70k, it is a strong buy, but for anything more, it needs better tech to compete.

I believe theres a lot to be had with this SUV, but I do not believe the price is reflective of the datedness and relative obsolescence of some aspects. For the money there are objectively nicer and more modern vehicles, but incentivized buyers that need the capabilities of a truck with added premium features and people-carrying capacity, its not a bad option.

I looked at the 2017 Infinity after my Acura was totaled. I was shocked at the older technology and lack of safety features I thought all new cars would have. Bought a Ford Fusion Platinum instead. It had all the latest featuresThe large Infinity does look very impressive. Dont understand the lack of updating.

lol that door panel gap is just silly. For a luxury vehicle it should never have such issues with fit/finish. And even though its been said a million times, the infotainment is absolutely horrendous. At this point it would be better for them to just steal the infotainment from the updated Nissan systems.

You wait by The year 2019 Infinity will redesign the QX80. It will be a proper Crossover with a Turbo Six cylinder along with a new eight cylinders engine. The iPhone will be able to integrate with the SUV. Otter than that this 2012 model is nice. Written on April 15th 2012. Guess I was wrong

Alex, I think body-on-frame vehicles should really just be compared to others of the same basic design. If I hit the jackpot and had to use part of it to buy a 3 ton SUV, I would take the LX, Land Cruiser or a Sequoia over any choice from Nissan or the Detroit 3; ) #NoComparison
