The 2027 Infiniti QX60 adds a SPORT grade to its four-trim lineup and opens the order books at $51,890 for the base PURE model, positioning the three-row SUV as one of the cheaper ways into a leather-lined cabin with a luxury badge on the grille.
Infiniti moved 9,475 QX60s in the first quarter of 2026, up 64% from the same period last year, which makes this the model carrying the brand’s volume hopes in a segment where Lincoln, Audi, and Volvo all charge more to start. The 2027 model year is the second for the current-generation QX60, which was redesigned for 2026 with a new front fascia and grille that gave the SUV a more upscale appearance than the version it replaced.
The new SPORT grade, standard with all-wheel drive, starts at $62,390 and comes with a gloss black grille mesh, 20-inch black wheels, dark exterior trim, and a Dusk Blue interior with blue-and-black seating and a black headliner. It slots between the LUXE grade at $57,290 and the top AUTOGRAPH at $66,890. The SPORT’s styling package is visual theater, not mechanical; all QX60s use the same 268-horsepower Variable Compression Turbo engine rated for 286 pound-feet of torque and a 6,000-pound tow rating when properly equipped.
The pricing lands the QX60 below its own corporate sibling. The QX65 LUXE starts at $53,990, which is $3,300 less than the QX60 LUXE. The gap widens to $6,700 when comparing SPORT trims, with the QX65 SPORT at $55,690 versus the QX60 SPORT at $62,390. That internal pricing tension is unusual; the QX60 is the more established nameplate, but Infiniti is now asking buyers to pay a premium for it over the newer QX65.
The Acura MDX remains the most direct competitor. It offers a traditional V6, front- or all-wheel drive, and a similar value proposition as a lower-cost entry into the three-row luxury segment. The Lincoln Aviator, Audi Q7, and Volvo XC90 all start higher, which leaves the QX60 and MDX fighting for buyers who want the badge without the BMW X5 price tag.
All QX60 grades come with dual 12.3-inch screens running Google built-in, wireless phone charging, five USB-C ports, and full LED lighting. The LUXE grade adds a 3D Around View Monitor, 20-inch wheels, a 16-speaker Klipsch audio system, ProPILOT Assist, and heated second-row seats. The AUTOGRAPH brings massaging front seats, a 20-speaker Klipsch Reference Premiere system, semi-aniline quilted leather, and a head-up display. A $3,150 Technology Package for AUTOGRAPH adds ProPILOT Assist 2.1, which allows hands-off highway driving in certain conditions.
Destination and handling adds $1,545 to every grade.
The 64% first-quarter sales jump suggests Infiniti has found traction with the redesigned QX60, but the brand is now asking the SPORT trim to pull double duty as both a volume play and a halo for the lineup. Whether that works depends on how many buyers are willing to pay $62,390 for a grille and some blue stitching when the mechanicals underneath are identical to the $51,890 base model.
If you have been shopping the segment and waiting for a deal, the QX60 PURE is the number to beat.
