INFINITI’s boldest QX60 Sport delivers striking style, premium tech, and refined three-row AWD pull
When INFINITI says it redesigned the 2026 INFINITI QX60 with intention, one ride in the Sport AWD makes believers out of skeptics. This isn’t a badge slapped on a softened luxury hauler — the QX60 Sport is a statement, and it means business from every angle.
The first thing you notice is the front fascia. The QX60 Sport wears a uniquely sharpened grille mesh that adds an edge the other trims simply don’t have. Pair that with gloss black 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and matching dark exterior accents, and this three-row SUV looks every bit the part of a premium sport utility vehicle with personality. The “S” badge on the liftgate is a subtle but satisfying touch — a signal to those who know. Our test vehicle arrived in Radiant White with a Graphite interior, a combination that made the dark accents and Dusk Blue upholstery inside pop with understated drama.
And what an interior it is. The QX60 Sport comes standard with second-row captain’s chairs — a configuration that adds a more personal, tailored feel to the cabin versus the bench-equipped trims. The Dusk Blue upholstery with combination blue and black seating is exclusive to Sport, and it elevates the atmosphere in a way that feels both sporty and sophisticated. The black headliner reinforces that moody, intentional aesthetic throughout. TailorFit-appointed seats in the first and second rows provide real comfort without sacrificing style.
Technology inside the QX60 Sport is impressively robust. Dual 12.3-inch displays anchor the dashboard — one for the reconfigurable instrument cluster, the other for the infotainment system featuring Google built-in with always-updated Google Maps. The INFINITI InTouch 12.3-inch interactive display is intuitive and responsive, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration ensure seamless smartphone connectivity. Five USB-C ports mean everyone stays charged. The Klipsch 16-speaker premium audio system transforms every drive into a concert, with four 1-inch titanium dome tweeters and a 12-channel, 600-watt amplifier delivering crisp, powerful sound that fills every corner of the cabin.
Driver assistance features on the Sport grade are thoughtfully curated. ProPILOT Assist 1.1 provides intelligent cruise control with full stop-and-hold capability, while Traffic Sign Recognition keeps drivers informed without distraction. The 3D Around View Monitor with Fixed Views and Invisible Hood View make parking and maneuvering in tight spaces feel effortless. Front and rear sonar, Blind Spot Warning, Blind Spot Intervention, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection round out a safety suite that keeps the whole family protected without being intrusive.
Under the hood, the 2026 QX60 Sport AWD is powered by INFINITI‘s acclaimed 2.0-liter Variable Compression Turbo engine, producing 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque — the world’s first production variable compression powertrain. Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, the QX60 Sport delivers smooth, confident power across city streets and open highways alike. Fuel economy comes in at an EPA-estimated 22 mpg city and 27 mpg highway, with a combined 24 mpg — solid numbers for a three-row AWD SUV with real performance credentials. A best-in-class towing rating of 6,000 pounds means it’s ready for weekend adventure, too.
The QX60 Sport AWD is exclusively equipped with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, builds on the LUXE grade’s already-generous feature set, and is available in Mineral Black, Grand Blue, Radiant White, or Graphite Shadow — the latter two with an available Black Obsidian roof for even more visual drama. Our test vehicle’s MSRP started at $61,700, with a final as-tested price of $66,650 including options like INFINITI Radiant Dark Illuminated Kick Plates, Pass-Thru Lighting, Panoramic Illuminated Headliner, and Cargo Scuff Plates.
The 2026 INFINITI QX60 Sport AWD is a confident, compelling entry in the luxury three-row segment. It doesn’t chase — it leads.
