2025 INFINITI QX55

The lineup begins with the LUXE, adorned with signature LED headlights, gloss black exterior accents, and striking 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels that convey a balanced blend of sophistication and edge. The ESSENTIAL elevates allure further through adaptive front lighting, dark machine-finished wheels, and subtle chrome touches that catch light at every corner. At the pinnacle, the SENSORY commands presence with black open-pore wood, unique cube design LED headlamps, and refined body-colored lower bumpers, crafting a silhouette that’s both assertive and graceful.

Powering the QX55 is INFINITI’s revolutionary 2.0L VC-Turbo engine—a marvel of modern engineering that adjusts its compression ratio on the fly. This innovative turbocharged unit produces 268 hp and 280 lbs.-ft. of torque, delivering both performance and fuel efficiency without compromise. This variable compression engine pairs with an XTRONIC continuously variable transmission (CVT) for seamless acceleration, while standard Intelligent AWD ensures composed handling year-round—from wet city streets to snow-dusted highways near Union. Whether climbing into the Appalachian foothills or heading south on I-71, the QX55 delivers strength with polish.

The real distinction lies in how the QX55 performs in motion. The VC-Turbo engine responds with immediacy, yet never feels abrupt. Torque delivery is measured and consistent, translating to confident overtakes and smooth, linear acceleration. The all-wheel drive system constantly monitors traction and redistributes torque as needed—ideal for unpredictable Kentucky weather. Suspension tuning strikes a deft balance between responsiveness and ride comfort. The QX55 takes curves with poise and composure, yet insulates passengers from road imperfections with the grace expected of a luxury vehicle. It’s a driving dynamic that feels just as rewarding during a backroad sprint as it does on a long interstate cruise toward Cincinnati.

Inside, craftsmanship reveals itself in thoughtful layers. The driver-focused cockpit wraps around in asymmetrical design, placing controls naturally within reach. Available semi-aniline leather, dark aluminum trim, and tailored contrast stitching infuse tactile richness, while the dual-screen INFINITI InTouch™ system anchors connectivity with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Seating for five feels spacious, accentuated by an open interior architecture and a standard power-sliding tinted glass moonroof that bathes the cabin in natural light. The coupe-inspired roofline doesn’t sacrifice practicality, still offering ample cargo versatility for weekend escapes beyond Fort Wright.

Confidence takes form through a suite of proactive technologies. Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection scans ahead to mitigate potential collisions, while Blind Spot Warning and Lane Departure Warning sharpen spatial awareness in traffic. Available ProPILOT Assist seamlessly blends steering, braking, and acceleration to ease fatigue on longer journeys. An Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection simplifies tight parking maneuvers, wrapping the vehicle in an extra layer of vigilance. Each system doesn’t merely react—they help anticipate.
